Historical universities of Ireland, Trinity oozes culture and wisdom. Beautiful outdoor spaces, very well kept. The library is unique with its volumes, colours and scents. Overpriced on ticket .14 euros, for a short visit of 30 ' outdoor spaces. Obviously being one of the few cultural attractions of Dublin is well worth a visit.View original -

Great 35 minute tour of the campus by an alum. Book of Kells was a bit anti-climatic. The library was amazing because of the space, history and ability to get up close to interesting manuscripts without pushing and shoving.

Beautiful famous campus in downtown Dublin. It's worth a walk through with us variety of building, old and new. A major stop for many is the Book of Kells. Though it is around 11€ to get into the building. Always feel free to reach out to me on Twitter @joerazz

Student tour was lively and informative. It gave a great overview of how the university grew over the years. We loved our guide who was funny and inclusive. Book of Kells is a must-see work of art. Gorgeous colors and wonderful art. Interesting exhibit explains how the Book of Kells was created. Library was my favorite part of Trinity. It holds Brian Boru’s harp

It is untrue that #TakeBackTrinity student protestors are locked into the Dining Hall. They can leave at any time they want, and the College is taking all steps to ensure the safety of students inside. As large numbers of non-students had been invited into the building through an open call, and this would result in risks for everyone concerned, no one else is being given access to the building. The students occupying the Dining Hall have water and food as well as access to toilets and medical supplies !!!
