  • This excellent market is hidden in the heart of Dublin --- you can access it via the IFC (Irish Film Centre) or Temple Bar....

    It's a real treasure for all gourmets and you will not be disappointed with the variety of local and international delicacies on show (and for taste-sessions)

    The food market takes place every Saturday (between 9.30am-5pm) and is a great place for local organic produce ...

    Meeting House Square,
    Temple Bar,
    Dublin 2,
    Ireland

  • A less well known oasis just outside Dublin in the hills of County Wicklow is: MOUNT USHER GARDENS

    MOUNT USHER GARDENS

    Laid out along the banks of the River Vartry, Mount Usher has been designed in the Robinsonian* style. Trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants have been introduced from all parts of the globe and are planted in harmony with woodland and shade loving plants.

    Like all the great gardens of Ireland, Mount Usher offers varying pleasures at different seasons of the year. Rhododendrons in Spring, a blaze of Summer colour and the wistful tints of Autumn, all elegantly set off by the crystal waters of the river.

    In addition to the gardens, Mount Usher offers home produced refreshement in our Tea Room and a shopping court. Parking is available and the Gardens are within easy reach of Dublin.

     Hi Iris, you pointed out some places I did not have on the radar, like Wicklow Mountains. Would love to do an Ireland-roundtrip, but so far I only made it to Dublin (which was nice enough). Have a nice week !
