Dublin holds twelve quests across six categories, with no single one of them defining the place: Food, Nature and Party are level at three quests each. The one category with nothing in Dublin so far is Beach. One is tier 1, the tier kept for what a visitor would not have found on their own: Blessington Basin. It is also the only quest here whose check-in asks for PRO; the other eleven are open on any plan. Tier 3 covers nine of them, which is the label for what a visitor would expect a travel app to have anyway. A food quest names the dish rather than the restaurant: the pin sits on the room that serves it, but what you are going for is the plate. Nature quests want weather and daylight rather than opening hours, so the season decides more about a trip here than the distance does. Every check-in works the same way: the geotag your camera wrote into the photo has to land within 200 m of the quest's own point. ### By category Each of these opens the whole category across every city, with the Dublin quests among them. - [History quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/history) โ€” one in Dublin - [Nature quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/nature) โ€” three in Dublin - [Art quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/art) โ€” one in Dublin - [Food quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/food) โ€” three in Dublin - [Sport quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/sport) โ€” one in Dublin - [Party quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/category/party) โ€” three in Dublin --- Tier 1 ## The unexpected ones The one quests in Dublin the catalogue files as finds rather than fixtures โ€” the half of a city a guidebook has no room for. - [Blessington Basin](https://getmap.travel/quests/ChIJNYVV7H8OZ0gRu3d36hryx84) An old water tank now has an island Nature --- Nearby ## Cities near Dublin Ranked by distance rather than by border, because from here the next useful stop is often the one in the next country. - [Manchester 12 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/gb/manchester) - [Edinburgh 12 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/gb/edinburgh) - [London 10 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/gb/london) - [Bayeux 3 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/fr/bayeux) - [Bruges 3 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/be/bruges) - [Rotterdam 10 quests](https://getmap.travel/quests/city/nl/rotterdam) --- Questions ## About quests in Dublin ### How many photo quests are there in Dublin? 12, across six of the seven categories the catalogue uses. The deepest groups are Nature (3), Food (3) and Party (3). Nothing in Beach here yet โ€” a category appears in a city the moment a quest is published into it, so the gaps move. Among them: George's Street Arcade, Phoenix Park and National Gallery. ### What is there to do in Dublin beyond the obvious? One of the 12 quests in Dublin is tier 1, which is the catalogue's own mark for a find rather than a landmark: the pipeline that writes it is told that tier 3 is "everything a visitor would expect a travel app to have", and that tiers 1 and 2 are "only the unexpected finds". Dublin holds one at tier 1, two at tier 2 and nine at tier 3. The tier 1 quest here is Blessington Basin, in Nature. ### Can you do all the Dublin quests on one trip? Yes, given a few days. Every one of the 12 falls within 4.6 km of the middle of the Dublin list โ€” walking and local transport, not day trips โ€” so this is a list to plan a visit around rather than a reason to extend one. ### Which Dublin quests can you do for free? 11 of the 12 can be checked in on the free plan, and all 12 can be read and travelled to without paying anything โ€” the catalogue is open signed out, on every plan. PRO covers the check-in on the hardest tier, which in Dublin means one quest: Blessington Basin. ### How do I prove I visited a place in Dublin? Take the photo at the place and upload it. Your browser reads the location the camera wrote into that file and measures it against the quest's own coordinates; inside 200 m the check-in counts. The distance is measured to the point, not to the city: being in Dublin is not what is checked, and a photo taken across town from George's Street Arcade fails exactly the way one taken at home does. A file with no location in it cannot be checked at all, and a photo that has been through a messaging app usually arrives that way โ€” upload the original out of the camera roll rather than a copy someone sent back to you. The Food quests in Dublin sit on the room where the dish is served rather than on the dish, so that address is what the 200 m is measured from. --- This is the Markdown rendering of https://getmap.travel/quests/city/ie/dublin.
