One of Europe's largest enclosed recreational capital parks, covering over 1,750 acres just west of Dublin city centre. Established in 1662 as a royal deer-hunting park by the Duke of Ormond, it still hosts a wild herd of fallow deer roaming freely through its meadows. Landmarks within the perimeter include Áras an Uachtaráin (the President's official residence) and the 62-metre Wellington Monument obelisk.
Highlights
