That One Corner in Temple Bar Dublin

Say 'cheese'!

"At that one corner in Temple Bar in Dublin,"

I'm going to warn you, readers, this post is about a very, very specific corner in Temple Bar Street, Dublin. But if you are a selfie enthusiast and/or an Easter egg hunter this secret revelation is for you.

Right in front of The Temple Bar, a portion of the street is always being monitored by a live camera placed above Temple Bar Pharmacy. This is quite big brother-y if you ask me, but it's just a small detail that we can easily ignore for the sake of seeing ourselves in a live cam in front of The Temple Bar. Once you find this corner all you have to do is position yourself in front of the camera and type in your search engine 'Dublin Cam live', and voilá, just give it a few seconds to adjust and start screenshotting all your best poses. This is also a very cool tool to check out if you are not in Dublin and want to have a hint of the city and its atmosphere in real-time.

There are many other cool little details you can find wandering around Temple bar, like Rory Gallagher Corner (famous Irish blues musician), with a replica of his guitar on the wall; A bronze bench, situated in Fowness Street Lower, with a very interesting inscription; And The Icon Walk, among many others, with street art created to promote Irish culture. So go on and explore this amazing street filled with secret treasures, and pay close attention to details!
