THE PHOENIX PARK is a gem in the city.

1. There’s so much nature to see

2. Going to see Santa’s reindeer as a kid just can’t be beaten

3. Or the rabbits

4. They’re up for a selfie at every opportunity

 5. The lovely view of the President’s gaff from the road makes you feel all warm and fuzzy

6. But the views in general aren’t anything to be scoffed at either

7. It really comes into its own around the holidays

8. The Wellington monument is the largest obelisk in Europe

9. But getting lost in the woods is just as beautiful

10. If you say you don’t want to live here, you’re lying

11. The Papal Cross serves as a reminder of that historic day in 1979

12. And your childhood wasn’t complete until you rolled down the surrounding hills

13. An ice cream on a warm day in the Phoenix park is bliss

14. But it really comes into its own on a crisp winter’s morning

15. You’d fall over yourself trying to have a free look in the zoo

16. When the car was pulled in, you knew a nice walk was in your immediate future

17. Because aren’t we so lucky to have it on our doorstep?
