The park is 707 hectares, making it more than twice the area of New York's Central Park.

The park is interesting not just for this expanse of land, but also because of the interesting history of its development. It began as a Royal Deer Park from around 1662, and was opened to the public in 1747. It holds a zoo, visitor centre, deer, the big Papal cross and the president's home (Aras an Uachtarain).

It's ideal to get the Luas up there, and chill out for a day, or just recover from the night before before hitting the town again.
