About St. Stephens green

The Stephen’s Green located at the top of Grafton Street brings you to the Fusilier's Arch, the main entrance to St. Stephen's Green. Georgian buildings surround 'the Green', although some sadly fell by the wayside during the redevelopment, mainly in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. The 22-acre park is a Dublin gem and the land of calm and serenity, away from the otherwise downtown city life. When the weather allows and is favorable, you should do as the locals do and unwind for some rest and relaxation, or grab a picnic brunch at this beautiful park. Thus, the park is popular for various significant reasons today.
