In evidenza

Dublin’s beautiful Marlay Park is more than just a beloved green space. It’s where history, nature, and art meet. On this walking tour, you’ll discover the fascinating evolution of this aristocratic estate – from medieval farmland to public park – which spans over 500 years of Irish history. The tour begins at the Wicklow Way starting point, where you’ll hear some of the fascinating stories hidden within this 120-hectare urban oasis at the Dublin Mountains’ foothills. You’ll walk the historic grounds once owned by Barnaby Fitzpatrick, hearing the intriguing tale of how he went from Irish king to English baron in the 1500s when this land was first confiscated from Cistercian monks. You’ll wander through ancient woodlands and past curious art installations, and see beautifully restored walled gardens. Here, you’ll meet the colourful residents of the aviary, including peacocks that wander freely throughout the gardens, before ending the tour at the impressive Georgian Marlay House.

About Dublino

Dublino, accogliente capitale letteraria d'Irlanda sul Liffey: piazze georgiane, pub storici, musica dal vivo e arte del racconto.

Il Trinity College custodisce il Libro di Kells miniato e la maestosa biblioteca della Long Room, mentre il Castello di Dublino, la Christ Church Cathedral e la Cattedrale di San Patrizio ripercorrono il passato medievale e coloniale della città. Le piazze georgiane come Merrion Square, con le loro porte dai colori vivaci, e la distesa verde di St Stephen's Green offrono un'elegante calma.
