"This library, in the grounds of the beautiful Dublin Castle, is one of our favourite places. Housing the collection of mining engineer Sir Alfred Chester Beatty which includes more than 20,000 manuscripts, rare books, miniature paintings, clay tablets, costumes and other objects of artistic, historical and aesthetic importance. These objects come from around the world, most notably India, Persia, Japan and China. The range of illuminated religious texts and books from are a constant source of personal inspiration. The rooftop garden is a thing to behold, and its all absolutely free." - It's Okay
