The WMG is spectacular, especially when you think that this country was in the throes of fighting off the British when WW1 was going on. The Memorial is really lovely, simple but powerful, and the number of men who died is inscribed in stone, so you'll never forget.

Set on the banks of the Liffey, another little known park. It is well manicured and there is a lovely monument to those Irish who fought in WW1 and WW2.
