Trim Castle is open, on payment of a modest entry fee, to the public everyday from Easter Saturday to Halloween (October 31) from 10am. The area inside the castle walls is freely accessible for a small fee, while the Castle keep is visited by a 45-minute guided tour, with first tour at 10.30am, last entry at 5pm and last tour at 5.15pm. In winter, the complex is open only on weekends and bank holidays. If you take the tour the guide can show you the historical graffiti found on some of the walls, some of it dating back to the castle’s construction.
The castle grounds, outside the walls, including the restored small canal and fine viewing areas, can be accessed free all year around, and there is a pedestrian bridge across the Boyne to allow access to outlying historic remains.

Greystones is a coastal town in County Wicklow, Ireland. It is located on Ireland’s east coast, 8 km (5.0 mi) south of Bray and 27 km (17 mi) south of Dublin (it is within the Greater Dublin Area), with a population in the region of 15,000.

The town’s name is derived from a one kilometre stretch of coastal grey rocks situated between two beaches; this rocky area is known as the sea front. The harbour area and the railway station are at the northern and southern ends respectively. The North Beach, which begins at the harbour, is a stony beach and some of its length is overlooked by the southern cliffs of Bray Head, which are subject to erosion. The South Beach is a broad expansive sandy beach about one kilometre long. It is a Blue Flag beach and receives many visitors and tourists, mainly in the summer.
The town is bordered by the Irish Sea to the east, Bray Head to the north and the Wicklow Mountains to the west.

In 2008, Greystones was named as the world’s ‘most livable community’ at the LivCom Awards in China.

The Greystones Harbour Project is one of the most challenging civil engineering and architectural projects to be undertaken in Ireland over the coming years.

It involves the provisions of a new Harbour and Marina, together with enhanced public and community amenities, backed by residential and retail development.

The city of Brussels has had a renowned artist scene for many years. The famous Belgian surrealist René Magritte, for example, studied in Brussels. The city is also a capital of the comic strip; some treasured Belgian characters are Lucky Luke, Tintin, Cubitus, Gaston Lagaffe and Marsupilami. Throughout the city walls are painted with large motifs of comic book characters, and the interiors of some Metro stations are designed by artists.

The Belgian Comics Museum combines two artistic leitmotifs of Brussels, being a museum devoted to Belgian comic strips, housed in the former Waucquez department store, designed by Victor Horta in the Art Nouveau style.

Brussels contains over 80 museums, including the Museum of Modern Art, and the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium. The museum has an extensive collection of various painters, such as the Flemish painters like Bruegel, Rogier van der Weyden, Robert Campin, Anthony van Dyck, and Jacob Jordaens. The recently opened Magritte Museum houses the world’s largest collection of the works of the surrealist René Magritte.

The King Baudouin Stadium is a concert and competition facility with a 50,000 seat capacity, the largest in Belgium. The site was formerly occupied by the Heysel Stadium.
