Connolly Room

This is where they took care of Connolly (a revolutionary) and tried to nurse him back to health, but later decided to kill him anyway, even if he was going to die naturally (very controversial).

Awesome Table

Meeting Room

This is where important meetings would take place, like the Anglo-Irish Treaty between England and Ireland.

Queen's Bedroom

This is where the Queen's used to sleep here, but also the last people to sleep there were Bill and Hilary Clinton.

Hall in Castle!

This was a really pretty hall in Dublin Castle.

Ceiling in Hall

Petticoat Mirror

This is where the ladies would check that their petticoats weren't showing while they were taking a break from dancing at a ball.

Ceiling detail in Throne Room

Brass Chandelier

This was in the throne room, and it weighs a ton, so they had to reinforce the ceiling to support it.

Old Merchant's Entrance

This is part of the old part of the medieval castle where the merchants would be allowed in.

Dome in City Hall

Chinese Celebration

I wandered into City Hall and found this Chinese Celebration...very odd, so I took a picture of it!
