Dublin is the capital and largest city of Ireland. It is in the province of Leinster on Ireland’s east coast, at the mouth of the River Liffey.
Dublin is one of the top thirty cities in the world, and is a historical and contemporary centre for education, the arts, administration, economy and industry.
