Dublin voted fifth friendliest city on earth!

A US travel magazine, Condé Nast Traveler, has voted Dublin as the fifth friendliest city on earth!

Readers described our fair city as a “bibliophile’s dream”, aswell as being “green, lush, and very walkable”.

They also said it was “the kind of place you stop in for a drink in a local pub, only to end up chatting with the locals for the next five hours.”

• Well, what can we say? We do try!
• The top ten friendliest cities were:
• Auckland, New Zealand
• Melbourne, Australia
• Victoria, BC, Canada
• Charleston, South Carolina, US
• Dublin, Ireland
• Sydney, Australia
• Siem Reap, Cambodia
• Cape Town, South Africa
• Savannah, Georgia, US

However, ten unfriendly cities you might want to steer clear of are:

• Johannesburg, South Africa
• Cannes, France
• Moscow, Russia
• Paris, France
• Marseilles, France
• Beijing, China
• Frankfurt, Germany

Ye see? Paris might have style, but we have friendly residents! Which would you prefer?
