The Boardwalk along Dublin's River Liffey has been open for about 4 years now. It provides a pleasant walk along the north quays on the river, much nicer than when we just had a footpath along the road, as the traffic can be pretty heavy in the city.

Provided along the boardwalk, which runs from Grattan bridge to O'Connell bridge, are seats & some kiosks selling food, tea & coffee. So, if you manage to get a nice day it can be fun just hanging around this area.

For this photo, I stood just in front of the Ha'penny bridge (the old iron footbridge that links the north quays to the Temple Bar area) and faced east. The bridge you can see is O'Connell bridge, with Liberty Hall (the tall, ugly office building on the left), The Custom house (green dome) and the Financial Services centre (office behind the dome) also visible. The river itself splits in the city into it's north & south sides, a geographical & at times social division. I'm a northsider :)
