Phoenix Monument, Phoenix Park

Highlight • Monument

The Phoenix Monument stands proud in the centre of the vast Phoenix Park and is one of the green space's longest surviving features. The fluted collumn was carved from Portland Stone and displays a phoenix at the top. It's not as high as the park's famous Wellington Monument which, at 203 feet (62 m), is the largest obelisk in Europe.

Phoenix Park

Highlight • Natural

A good spot for Dubliners to ride in nice surroundings without needing to leave the city. Can be busy at weekends so watch out, but a really easy option if you don't have much time.
