St. Stephen’s Green is a large historic public park in the City Centre of Dublin, Ireland. The park was originally opened in 1880 by Lord Ardiluan.

The Park features include a waterfall and Pulham rock work on the west side of the green and an ornamental lake which allows for water flow. Throughout St. Stephen’s Green there is a variety of sculptures with recognition to Irish History. A children’s playground is also available and a garden for the visually impaired.
