Nice! Looks well kept. I’ve never been there. Is it a nice place to walk through? Is there ever trouble there or is it as well kept and friendly as it looks? Never seen it from this angle/view btw, did you take this pic?
Trying to work out from the Luas and road markings when this photo was taken. 2016?
Looks so much smaller from this angle. I miss it.
Always an amazing place to visit, especially early in the morning before the city wakes up. Visit every time we go home.
I think on the Continent that would be a large cobbled plaza, glad it’s not.

**St Stephen’s Green** ([Irish](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_language): *Faiche Stiabhna*)[^([2])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Stephen%27s_Green#cite_note-Irish_name-2) is a [garden square](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_square) and [public park](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_park) located in the [city centre](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_centre) of Dublin, Ireland. The current landscape of the park was designed by William Sheppard. It was officially re-opened to the public on Tuesday, 27 July 1880 by [Lord Ardilaun](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Guinness,_1st_Baron_Ardilaun).[^([3])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Stephen%27s_Green#cite_note-autogenerated1-3)[^([4])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Stephen%27s_Green#cite_note-4) The square is adjacent to one of Dublin’s main shopping streets, [Grafton Street](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafton_Street), and to a [shopping centre](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen%27s_Green_Shopping_Centre) named after it, while on its surrounding streets are the offices of a number of public bodies as well as a stop on one of Dublin’s [Luas](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luas) tram lines. It is often informally called Stephen’s Green. At 22 acres (8.9 ha), it is the largest of the parks in Dublin’s main Georgian [garden squares](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_square). Others include nearby [Merrion Square](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merrion_Square) and Fitzwilliam Square.
