Objectif : comprendre un article dans un guide touristique. CE-B1 TRAVEL : DUBLIN Before arriving in Dublin, we need to get some advices for tourists. Here is an article which can help us to enjoy our stay. DUBLIN 1. Eating out If you enjoy the friendly atmosphere of pubs, you could have lunch in one. Most pubs serve food at lunchtime and into the early evening. This is an inexpensive way to eat out, and the quality of the food is often quite good. When pressed for time, you may well be tempted to enter a fast-food restaurant. No problem. There are many well-known brands names like McDonald’s, Burger King, KFC etc… But you should also try fast food with an Irish twist: you will love the local sandwiches, salads, soups, fish and chips… 2. Best times to visit Dublin The best time to visit Dublin is in the summertime when temperatures are warm (for Ireland) and festivals fill the streets. This is also the most expensive time to visit, with high hotels rates and airfare prices. It’s also the most crowded time of the year. If you’re looking for a better price and fewer tourists, come in winter with your heaviest coat. Spring and autumn are the happy medium: moderate temperatures (again, for Ireland), crowds and prices. 3. How to save money in Dublin Visit the free attractions: a number of attractions (the National Gallery, the Museum of Modern Art, the Prison of Kilmainham) are absolutely free. Just say no: taxis are expensive. Instead of handing out your euros, rely on your own two feet or take the bus. 4. Best things to do in Dublin Dublin is one of the most walkable cities in Europe. Start in the north at Phoenix Park and head south to the river Liffey. Stroll along the famous Ha’Penny Bridge. Then, find your way to the medieval streets of Temple Bar. Pause for a drink before heading to the Trinity College Campus. Shop along the Grafton Street before relaxing on the peaceful St Stephen’s Green. From there, visitors who enjoy a drop of beer or whiskey can tour the Guinness Storehouse or the Old Jameson Distillery.
