River Liffey - Dublin City Ireland - Things to Do in Ireland - Visit Dublin, Ireland
River Liffey - Dublin City Ireland - Things to Do in Ireland
Dublin; have you ever been to Dublin before? Are you willing to go for a trip to Ireland? Going to a new place means a plan for the places to visit there that should be done. When it comes to Dublin, Ireland, there are different places to go to and lots of attractions to pass by.
River Liffey in Dublin is an important river in Ireland because it flows through the centre of Dublin, not just that, but this river supplies much of Dublin's water and a range of recreational activities. The major tributaries of River Liffey include the River Dodder, the River Poddle, and River Camac.
This river in Dublin, Ireland, acts as an important part of the city because it acts as a visible divide between Dublin's north and south sides and it is also considered a perfect accompaniment for a scenic stroll.
Liffey in the Irish dictionary means A Life and that is exactly the name given to this important river. This was not the first name given to this river, but it was previously known as An Ruirthech which means fast or strong runner. Generally speaking, the name Liphe which means life that was used to refer to the river was actually taken from the plain that the river ran. In addition to that, the river was also known as Anna Liffey which is possibly from an anglicisation of Abhainn na Life, the Irish phrase that translates into English as River Liffey.
In addition to being one of the landmarks of Dublin city and one place that could offer people a good walk along it, River Liffey is also where some activities are taking place and which include rafting, fishing, and swimming - so if the weather is good, you could choose the right place and do any of these activities if you are into any of them in the first place.
There is a number of bridges that stretch across the river and which include those that are built for pedestrians to walk over and pass the river through, as well as those which are built for the vehicular traffic. The three pedestrian bridges are known as The Millennium Bridge, The Sean O'Casey Bridge, and the Ha'penny Bridge.
The newest bridge that is found on River Liffey is the one which opened back in 2009 by Samuel Calatrava Valls and which was referred to as Samuel Beckett Bridge; Samuel Calatrava was also the one to design the James Joyce Bridge that spans the Liffey - since James Joyce used to refer to River Liffey in some of his writings.
It is not much about the history of the river or even of those bridges which are crossing it over, but it is more about the different things that one could enjoy doing from activities or just from walking by the river and enjoying the Irish culture, buildings, and getting introduced to Dublin city - it is all a different experience for those people coming over from other countries around the world, but those Irish people, we are sure have already been to River Liffey millions of times before.
Being the capital of Ireland and also the biggest city to be found in it, it is important to mention that there are lots of different places that one could visit in Dublin and different attractions that people and tourists could pass by; placing River Liffey on the list might be one thing, but you still have other suggestions to keep following.
In Dublin, you could also go and check O'Connell Street which is for sightseeing as well as shopping and nights out ( there is also the sightseeing tours which you could enjoy by the hop-on hop-off buses that will take you through the city and its important streets and attractions ( since you are already checking the River Liffey then you could also go to the Four Courts which is located along the river ( there is St. Stephen's Green Dublin Park which has been there since 1880 - so it is both about green areas as well as historical places ( you could also go and check the Dublinia Viking Museum ( the Merrion Square ( the Mansion House ( Leinster House ( check the Christ Church Cathedral that carries lots of historical antiques and carvings inside ( as well as lots and lots of different other places that might never end until your stay in Dublin reaches its last day.
Make your plan, get the chance to visit River Liffey and have a walk by it, and get the chance to visit different places across Dublin city that will get you introduced to the history of the place and at the same time will give you a new experience which you have never gone through before.

St. Patrick's Park Dublin - Things to Do in Dublin, Ireland
Dublin, which is found on Ireland's east coast at the mount of the River Liffey, is the rich capital that has lots of old historical buildings which tourists are always planning to visit once they set their feet on the grounds of the city.
Dublin Castle, the National Museum of Ireland, St. Patrick's Cathedral ( these are all different examples for the places that people usually know about and place them in the must-do category. Even if those historical buildings are considered much more important than other places, there are still those green parks which people could visit for some good family time at a park that might also be historical and carries a long history behind as well.
St. Patrick's Park in Dublin is one of those examples to share and recommend since it is a historical park that has been taken care of since a long time ago. St. Patrick's Park is considered a good and ideal recreational space for families due to the relaxing environment that it has as well as the kids playing area that welcomes them all the time.
One of the old historical buildings that mark Dublin is St. Patrick's Cathedral which is the national cathedral of the church of Ireland and a construction that was found in 1191 and that is exactly where St. Patrick's Park is located; it is located just right beside the cathedral.
There are lots of different stories which are told about St. Patrick's Park and even the cathedral, usually these stories make people a little bit interested about visiting the place and hearing about all those stories. One of these things told about the place was that St. Patrick baptized the first Irish Christians in the park with water from River Poddle that flows underground.
St. Patrick's park was developed by lord Iveagh under the St. Patrick's Park Act of 1897 and it was completed by 1904 to a layout by Arthur Dugeon. Lord Iveagh continued to maintain the park for a number of years under a joint arrangement with the corporation who eventually took full responsibility in the 1920s.
In addition to the cathedral that is situated right next to the park, there were other additions added in 1988 which include a Literary Parade highlighting the works of Swift, Mangan, Shaw, Yeats, Synge, O'Casey, Joyce, Behan, Beckett, Clarke, Dillon, and the Liberty Bell Sculpture.
One of the things that also highlight the place is the sandstone fountain that stands in the middle of the park and which is 2 meters high and 1.4 meters in diameter. This is one of the things we believe that added much more to the park and gave it this relaxing feeling - of course apart from the amount of noise that might be coming from the kids playground that is found in the place :-) There is also another smaller fountain that is found inside the park and which was made by J. Whitehead & Sons Ltd London, which is found on the park's east side; this fountain is 151 meters high and is made of polished granite.
One of the questions that is always asked about this garden is why it was actually developed in this place; St. Patrick's Park was established at this location to commemorate the Royal Jubilee, but we have to say that it added much to the place and made it look a lot better and gave people the chance to enjoy a green walk or a relaxing time with their friends and family members.
The park was opened by King Edward VII on July 24th 1902 who expressed his satisfaction with the grounds.
Since Dublin is the capital city of the Republic of Ireland then it usually happens to be one of the top cities visited in Ireland in general and this should bring us to the point where we have to suggest some of the other important landmarks and attractions which people should go to and check.
In addition to St. Patrick's Park, which will also give people the chance to visit St. Patrick's Cathedral, one could also check River Liffey in Dublin and have a walk by it or even do any of the activities that could be done there ( visit the Mansion House in Dublin ( have a walk through another famous park in Dublin which is known as Phoenix Park ( have a stroll in O'Connell street which is good for sightseeing, shopping, as well as good night outs ( there is also the Merrion Square ( Molly Malone Statue ( or even enjoying the sights of the city by riding the hop-on hop-off bus tour which will drive you through the most famous streets and across the most famous attractions in Dublin (

What poo can tell us about Viking Dublin
Under Dublin lies the remains of an ancient Viking city.
Archaeological surveys of what has been found has revealed a wealth of information about these Norse invaders - and one rather unsavory substance found can tell us the most.
Faeces can tell us everything from diet of the residents to the diseases they suffered.
But to find these cesspits, archaeologists need the help of a little beetle...

Gold on the bottom of the river Liffey, Ireland.
I was sorting the footage I had shot in River Liffey at the end of the last summer and I noticed this episode where I lift some metallic bowl which is laying covered with mud on the bottom. I didn't pay any attention to it that time but now after I've discovered that Vikings lost some gold there I'm thinking maybe that was gold. Anyone who knows archaeology could you tell please if that bowl looks like anything what may have belong to Vikings.
