People's Park, Dún Laoghaire, Public park in Dún Laoghaire, Ireland
The People's Park spans 1.6 hectares near Dún Laoghaire Harbour, featuring pathways, fountains, a central bandstand, and a playground for visitors.
Before becoming a park in 1890, the location contained a Martello Tower in 1805 and later served as a quarry until the Kingstown Town Commission acquired it.
The Victorian-era park includes a Garden for the Blind with specialized walking trails and hosts weekly Sunday markets throughout most of the year.
The park maintains daylight operating hours and offers direct access from Sandycove and Glasthule train station through entrances on Summerhill Road and Park Road.
The park's tearooms occupy an extended Victorian shelter, renovated by conservation architects Howley Hayes to preserve the historical structure.
