Phoenix Park, Urban park in Dublin, Ireland
Phoenix Park extends over 700 hectares and contains broad green spaces, forested areas, and a population of wild fallow deer that roam freely.
The park originated in 1662 as a royal deer hunting ground before its transformation into a public space in 1745 under Lord Chesterfield.
The park houses multiple national institutions, including Dublin Zoo, Áras an Uachtaráin presidential residence, and the Victorian People's Gardens.
The park remains accessible through multiple gates 24 hours daily, with dedicated parking areas and regular bus connections from Dublin city center.
The Wellington Monument, standing at 62 meters, represents Europe's tallest obelisk and required 43 years for complete construction.
