*********** The Botanic Gardens is located in Glasnevin on Dublin's Northside .***********
The gardens were first owned by Thomas Tickell he was a poet . The estate was sold And then given to the Royal Dublin
Society in the year 1795. The garden became the first botanic garden in Ireland. There are vast amounts of trees shrubs and a vegetable
garden a museum tropical plants and also a café and theatre. Large groups of tourists and local residents come to visit this beautiful
setting annually. The reception area has books and leaflets with very informative information about the gardens'
There is also a side gate which leads into Glasnevin Cemetery where you can visit my page on this site.
I have included some photos of the National Botanic Gardens for you and hope your visit to the garden will be a memorable occasion
to look back on following your visit to Ireland.
