Fun doing/ to do

1# It was fun to be there.
2# It was fun being there.
What is the difference between the above, please?
To me, 1# sounds to correspond to something like a wish while 2# in general.
Thank you very much.

I don't see any such difference. The event is in the past and the place is specified in both instances.

Again, I see no significant difference, since both refer to general experiences at a stated location.
