Captivating exhibits on display in Dublin
Culture vultures who are up for a bit of craic while on a short break in the Republic of Ireland may well wish to visit the Chester Beatty Library in Dublin.

And with a wide variety of items sourced from across the globe, tourists will be hard pressed to find something which is not captivating.

Items available for viewing include Buddhist paintings, Chinese robes, medieval manuscripts and Egyptian papyrus texts.

There are also a number of temporary exhibitions taking place throughout the year, as well as a gift shop giving tourists the chance to pick up some souvenirs.

And with the museum being voted the best museum in Ireland in 2000 as well as being awarded European Museum of the Year five years ago, visitors can be certain that taking a trip to the Chester Beatty Library will prove rewarding.

However, there is much more to see in the historic Irish city.

Tourists looking to continue an educational yet entertaining break should also stop by Dublin Castle and the Hugh Lane Gallery.
