Dublin, which is found on Ireland's east coast at the mount of the River Liffey, is the rich capital that has lots of old historical buildings which tourists are always planning to visit once they set their feet on the grounds of the city.
Dublin Castle, the National Museum of Ireland, St. Patrick's Cathedral (

Even if those historical buildings are considered much more important than other places, there are still those green parks which people could visit for some good family time at a park that might also be historical and carries a long history behind as well.
St. Patrick's Park in Dublin is one of those examples to share and recommend since it is a historical park that has been taken care of since a long time ago. St. Patrick's Park is considered a good and ideal recreational space for families due to the relaxing environment that it has as well as the kids playing area that welcomes them all the time.
One of the old historical buildings that mark Dublin is St. Patrick's Cathedral which is the national cathedral of the church of Ireland and a construction that was found in 1191 and that is exactly where St. Patrick's Park is located; it is located just right beside the cathedral.
There are lots of different stories which are told about St. Patrick's Park and even the cathedral, usually these stories make people a little bit interested about visiting the place and hearing about all those stories. One of these things told about the place was that St. Patrick baptized the first Irish Christians in the park with water from River Poddle that flows underground.
St. Patrick's park was developed by lord Iveagh under the St. Patrick's Park Act of 1897 and it was completed by 1904 to a layout by Arthur Dugeon. Lord Iveagh continued to maintain the park for a number of years under a joint arrangement with the corporation who eventually took full responsibility in the 1920s.
In addition to the cathedral that is situated right next to the park, there were other additions added in 1988 which include a Literary Parade highlighting the works of Swift, Mangan, Shaw, Yeats, Synge, O'Casey, Joyce, Behan, Beckett, Clarke, Dillon, and the Liberty Bell Sculpture.
One of the things that also highlight the place is the sandstone fountain that stands in the middle of the park and which is 2 meters high and 1.4 meters in diameter. This is one of the things we believe that added much more to the park and gave it this relaxing feeling - of course apart from the amount of noise that might be coming from the kids playground that is found in the place :-) There is also another smaller fountain that is found inside the park and which was made by J. Whitehead & Sons Ltd London, which is found on the park's east side; this fountain is 151 meters high and is made of polished granite.
One of the questions that is always asked about this garden is why it was actually developed in this place; St. Patrick's Park was established at this location to commemorate the Royal Jubilee, but we have to say that it added much to the place and made it look a lot better and gave people the chance to enjoy a green walk or a relaxing time with their friends and family members.
The park was opened by King Edward VII on July 24th 1902 who expressed his satisfaction with the grounds.
Since Dublin is the capital city of the Republic of Ireland then it usually happens to be one of the top cities visited in Ireland in general and this should bring us to the point where we have to suggest some of the other important landmarks and attractions which people should go to and check.
In addition to St. Patrick's Park, which will also give people the chance to visit St. Patrick's Cathedral, one could also check River Liffey in Dublin and have a walk by it or even do any of the activities that could be done there (
