A new Chinese “Suzhou” Garden has opened in Dublin to celebrate the Dublin Chinese New Year Festival.
Suzhou is a city in China that is known as “The Garden City” or “The Venice of the East“.
The garden is located within the “Clock Tower Model Gardens“, off the Main Avenue in St. Anne’s Park, and it can be accessed from the Garden for Patio & Miniature Roses, via the Herbaceous Borders (see the Map of St. Anne’s Park for details). Continue reading
Unfortunately, St. Anne’s Park does not have any “official” trails. You are offered a great number of different paths, each one will offer you a surprise of a pond, a stream, a rose garden garden, or an “old ruin” – one of the ten garden follies.
One “unofficial” trail has been recommended by J. Shannon, the Park’s Superintendent – The Saint Anne’s Trail (detailed information on this trail is published on Clontarf Online website).
The map above will help you orientate yourself (click on the picture below to view and print a large map of Saint Anne’s park).
Tirna nÓg band was formed by Leo O’Kelly & Sonny Condell in Dublin in early 1970.
