Nowadays, the cruelest treatment you can get here is being kicked off the grass by the administrator for playing football or frisbee.
Most of the buildings around the square were built in the middle of18th century. At that time, the park had just completed landscaping and became the central attraction of Dublin in the era of King George. Now, the main entrance of the park is under the fusilier arch at the end of Grafton Street. This arch was designed as a miniature version of the Arc de Triomphe of Titus in ancient Rome to commemorate the 265,438+02 soldiers of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers who died for Britain in the Boer War.
On the east side of the park is a children's playground, and on the south side is an ancient and beautiful music stage, which was built in 1887 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Queen Victoria's accession to the throne. In summer, there are often music performances here.

The wonderful audio-visual introduction was followed by a thought-provoking visit. This horrible prison is the largest vacant prison in Europe.
