Being originally from the Philippines I did not see a lot of castles growing up. Here in Ireland though, Castles are everywhere. In Dublin alone there are at least 10 you can readily visit. The closest one in the City Centre is the Dublin Castle. Very conveniently located along Dame street. It is just a short walk away from Temple Bar, Ha'penny Bridge and Trinity College.
