St. Patrick's Cathedral (pass by on the coach)
Built in honor of Ireland's patron saint in 1190, St. Patrick's Cathedral is not only the largest church in Ireland but is also said to be one of the earliest Christian sites in Ireland where St. Patrick baptized converts. The cathedral was damaged during Cromwell's invasion of Ireland in the 17th century and was restored in the 19th century by the Guinness Brewery family.
