Dublin has a very diverse variety of attractions, including beautiful castles, stimulating museums, and scenic parks. In general, there are more tourist attractions south of the River Liffey, which splits the centre of Dublin in two parts. This area of the city includes most of the museums, both Cathedrals, the shopping district, Trinity College, and Leinster House, the home of the Irish Parliament. The southside of Dublin is also known for its elegant leafy streets and parks in the more affluent neighbourhoods, full of stately Georgian mansions. There are places of interest north of the river as well, such as the odd museum or landmark, but it is also a great place to get a feel for the distinctive atmosphere of the city, more removed from the touristy hubbub. Streets such as Moore Street and Henry Street are great ones to explore here, for example.
