I spent a couple of days in the city of Dublin and loved it. I decided to feature a few doors from that fabulous city today.
A door on the train I took to Dublin
Greeted by superheroes when I arrived in downtown Dublin
A door in Dublin Castle
Impressive door to a bank
Door to the office Bran Stoker worked in from 1866 to 1878
Interesting doors of Dublin
A door on a house in St. Stephen’s Green
A door in the Museum of Archaeology
Guinness Doors are everywhere in Dublin!
I hope you enjoy my collection of doors. I have so much to tell you about my trip to Ireland.
This is just a taste.

My home country! I am in Cork though, not Dublin! Have you ever been?
June 23, 2023 at 12:03 am
I didn’t get to Cork this time. Perhaps the next time. It was my first time in Ireland. Loved it.
June 23, 2023 at 12:25 am
Glad you had a fun time, while visiting Ireland, Cork and Kerri. You should visit both they are stunning. 🌺🌺

I really like Dublin too. Did you go to any coastal towns? They are beautiful too. GOOD NEWS: I made a request for your Amanda books at our library. A bit of a process, it has to be done online. The keyboard at the library wasn’t working, it had a mind of its own, type one thing, see something else. LOL Anyhow, let’s see what happens. ❤

I did visit the countryside which was amazing. More to come. Thanks for trying to get my books into your library. That is awesome. Let me know if it works. xo
June 23, 2023 at 2:09 am
It will probably take a while, but I will keep checking when I am doing other book searches. 🙂

There’s something about old doors that newish doors never have. Beautiful selection.
June 23, 2023 at 1:53 am
love these.. the Guinness the best.. lol
June 23, 2023 at 1:56 am
Glad you like these doors. I’m not a beer drinker so didn’t try the Guinness. I did have an Irish Coffee though which was wonderful!!
June 23, 2023 at 5:54 am
wonderful for sure… me neither hahaha and Guinness would be too strong for me but they were fun doors. An irish coffee would be more up my alley too! 😍

When we visited Dublin, we focused on the literary spots and on Trinity College museum and the Book of Kells. Thanks for selecting unique doors here, Darlene.
June 23, 2023 at 3:56 am
Same here! It is such a literary city. There will be many more posts abut the special things I saw and did.
June 23, 2023 at 5:42 am
Thanks for that taste of Dublin. I’m looking forward to more.
June 23, 2023 at 7:24 am
Thanks, Anne. Dealing with some family stuff right now but there will be more!
June 23, 2023 at 6:14 am
These are wonderful doors, Darlene. Thanks for including the train door. I always like seeing those.
June 23, 2023 at 7:25 am
Glad you like the doors I featured this week. I thought the train door would be fun.
June 23, 2023 at 7:10 am
Absolutely fabulous doors, Darlene! Thank you! Looking forward to hearing about the trip.
June 23, 2023 at 7:44 am
These doors take the prize, particularly the bank door!
June 23, 2023 at 7:51 am
Thanks, Liz. That bank door just blew me away. I was rushing for my appointment to view the Book of Kells but had to stop and take a picture.
June 23, 2023 at 11:47 am
These doors are fantastic, Darlene. And that Guinness door…how fun is that?!!
June 23, 2023 at 5:04 pm
I loved that Guinness door too. Glad you enjoyed this collection of doors, Donna.
June 23, 2023 at 11:56 am
Ireland is one of those places I’ve always wanted to visit. Your Dublin doors are amazing, especially the bank door. Wow!
June 23, 2023 at 5:05 pm
It had been on my list for a long time. So glad it finally happened. You would love it.
June 23, 2023 at 2:31 pm
Wow, tons of character. Hope to see them one day.
June 23, 2023 at 5:06 pm
The city is full of character, Rebecca. I do hope you get there one day. It took me a long time. xo
June 24, 2023 at 1:03 am
Fantastic photos, Darlene! I will be in Ireland in two weeks and look forward to seeing everything I possibly can!
June 24, 2023 at 3:20 am
Hi Darlene, thanks for sharing these wonderful picture of Dublin.
June 24, 2023 at 2:24 pm
Wow, all the doors are gorgeous, even the door for a bank! I love all of them, Darlene! My daughter and her hubby visited Ireland and toured the Guinness brewery.
June 24, 2023 at 5:23 pm
There were so many great doors in Dublin. I’m sure your daughter enjoyed Dublin as much as I did. I didn’t get to the brewery but I hear it is interesting.
June 24, 2023 at 8:59 pm
Your Dublin door collection was definitely most interesting to see this morning.
June 25, 2023 at 12:58 am
Beautiful doors, Darlene. I’ve never seen such a lovely door to a bank. 🙂
June 25, 2023 at 1:30 am
Thanks, Lauren. The insides of some of the banks were amazing too. Of course I was not allowed to take pictures inside. Darn.
June 25, 2023 at 2:08 am
Too bad! I used to work in the banking industry, and I don’t remember any of those doors to be as gorgeous as these. 🙂
June 25, 2023 at 4:27 am
I am glad to see you went to St. Stephen’s Green. I like that park.
June 25, 2023 at 12:19 pm
Lovely set of doors. This makes me want to visit Dublin even more now.
June 26, 2023 at 11:41 am
I really like the teal one with the three half circles above the door and windows. (K)
June 26, 2023 at 8:21 pm
I have never been to Dublin or anywhere in Ireland #ssp267
June 26, 2023 at 8:23 pm
This was my first trip to Ireland. I hope it won’t be the last. I loved it!!
June 27, 2023 at 4:35 am
Hi Darlene, these impressive doors put our house doors to shame! They’re beautiful. And I like that you included a modern train door – it’s a pretty color!
June 27, 2023 at 7:39 am
The doors were very impressive. There were many green doors too but I thought that would be too obvious.
June 27, 2023 at 8:11 am
You captured some stunning doors! Great post and thanks for sharing!! Dublin architecture looks awesome!
June 27, 2023 at 5:23 pm
The architecture in Dublin was amazing and quite eclectic. I am always drawn to doors wherever I go.
June 27, 2023 at 9:06 am
The museum door appeals to my sense of fantasy, Darlene, but anything old also captures my attention. Thanks for the short trip to Dublin!
June 27, 2023 at 5:25 pm
I loved that museum door with the interesting details. Glad you enjoyed the visit with me. xo
June 27, 2023 at 9:53 am
Magnificent doors, Darlene – a very dignified city
June 27, 2023 at 5:26 pm
Dublin is a great mix of fun, history, knowledge and literature. There is something for everyone there.
June 27, 2023 at 12:01 pm
A beautiful peek at some of the architecture. How gorgeous! 🙂 xx
June 29, 2023 at 10:07 pm
Oh wow, Darlene! So many doors, so many stories I am sure. I have always thought that Ireland was a place I would one day love to visit. Some of my ancestors came to Nova Scotia from Ireland during the potato famine. Looking forward to reading about your adventures. 🙂
June 29, 2023 at 10:16 pm
You would definitely love it there Laura. Many Irish immigrants came to Canada and settled in the Maritime provinces. They brought their friendly hospitable culture with them. Glad you liked these doors.

A train door, now that’s different. The bank door is amazing!
June 23, 2023 at 12:02 am
Thanks, Vera. I enjoyed the one hour train journey from where I was staying into Dublin. I even made a friend on the train.
