It has a temperate climate and boasts a diverse landscape from rolling hills and mountains to beaches, cliffs, lakes and rivers. The nation's capital and largest city is Dublin which is located on the east coast near the mouth of the River Liffey, home to many famous landmarks such as Temple Bar and Trinity College.
