In the very centre of Dublin’s shopping district lies one of Ireland’s most well-known public parks – St. Stephen’s Green. This historical park is cared for by the Office of Public Works and is an important public resource as it provides an oasis of green calm in the middle of this bustling city!
The park has a complex and interesting history, being involved in the 1916 Easter Rising and was a regular walking spot for the likes of historical figures Arthur Guinness and Countess Constance Markievicz. The park itself hosts a large number of important sculptural monuments to Irish history.
St. Stephen’s Green is the perfect place for a mid-day walk, or to clear your head after a busy day in work. It’s become a popular destination not only for locals, but tourists also!
