This is a small square close to Dail Eireann in the south centre area. Lovely place to sit and unwind for a while More

Merrion Square Park is a brilliant park that's never too busy compared to Stephen's Green or others! There is always quite a peaceful atmosphere and there are plenty of benches to sit on. There are lots of sculptures dotted around the park too which is nice! More

Great for an impromptu picnic if you get the weather. Plenty of good bagel bars, sushi bars, Thai and Californian style Burrito bars within close proximity. More

Been here numerous times. Well maintained. Associated with Art, and sales of artwork at weekends. More

It is wonderful in the middle of a city to have such a lovely park. It is quite natural, but also very well kept. Lovely to walk in or have lunch and see the various plants and monuments. More

Again, great in the sun. Pretty flowers. There's a playground and hills to roll down. An area dedicated to Oscar Wilde as he used to live opposite the park. More

the best timeto visit this park is when the street performer festival is on in the summer . More

We sat in Merrion Square and were amazed at the bird life. You forget that you are in the center of a busy city like Dublin. The park is so tidy and inviting. What a wonderful location for a picnic. More

Almost totally secluded. No water features, which I personally like, as it keeps away the seagulls which besiege St. Stephen's Green. If you wander around enough, you can find spots where you can no longer see buildings and enjoy your sandwich in peace. Have a look at the statue of Oscar Wilde, just what he would have wanted! More
