Casino Marino
Overview
Designed in 1757 by Sir William Chambers as a pleasure house for James Caulfield, 1st Earl of Charlemont, the Casino is possibly one of the finest 18th-century neo-Classical buildings in Europe. Its name means "small house", but the Casino surprisingly contains 16 finely-decorated rooms.

About the area
It is often visited on a weekend trip, but rushing around is not the best way to experience Dublin. When Ireland joined the European Union, an economic boom began that flourished in the ‘Celtic Tiger’ years of the 1990s – fashion, the arts, food and Irish culture all blossomed, turning Dublin into one of the world’s hottest city destinations.
