There's about 20 quests between each boss trial, and for patch 2.4 and 2.5 there's also a mandatory storyline dungeon. There's ten additional optional dungeons you can unlock in Mor Dhona though, which I recommend to break things up a bit.
There are like a hundred quests that take place after the main story of A Realm Reborn, yet they do very little to contribute to the overall story of the game. While it might have been okay when they were released one set at a time, people who want to reach level 51+ content have to get through it first since last I checked, you cannot go to Ishgard or any of the Heavensward areas without first completing those quests.
