Très agréable. Nous y avons surtout été pour les parc de jeux pour enfants "The Giant Garden" qui est très sympa !
Il y a aussi quelques statuts au abords du parc.

Peaceful park in a beautiful neighborhood. This park was large, clean, and not very crowded on a Saturday morning in the middle of summer, on a gorgeous blue-sky day. Strolling through the park we found a cute little playground with some whimsical artwork/sculptures, like the giant sticking up out of the ground. We found Oscar Wilde's statue and the Jokers Chair. We continued on through the park, taking in the beautifully manicured lawns, watched as some workers set up for an event, and stopped to really appreciate the gardens and large oak trees. I couldn't believe how beautiful the wildflowers were, especially enjoying the hydrangeas that were more than I had ever seen in one place in the wild.

Walking through the neighborhood, it felt safe and clean, as we walked from Merrion's square park to Fitzgerald park. We loved the architecture, the vine covered walls of the buildings, and of course all of the brightly painted doors.

Parc très agréable. A recommander : le Food Market le jeudi, pour voyager aux quatre coins du monde confortablement installés sur l'herbe.

I love this park! It's clean and has beautiful green grassy picnic spots and tree lined walkways and beautiful flowers in season. This park gets busy during lunchtime with nice weather because everyone is having lunch on their break and it makes sense.

This place was lit during #gaypride parade. We enjoyed it a lot . There were performers, artists, models, singers performing on stage , there were cute little stalls and vans to enjoy meals and shopping.overall nice experience
