my winter vacation II

As promised, i will continue my unfinished story from last time, my winter break trip to ireland. (walaupon da berkurun lamanye. tp still nk cite gak. hoho)...

Continuing to the 3rd day of our stay in dublin, on 4th march we went to the Powerscourt house & gardens. it's a beautiful man-made garden about 1 hour from dublin city. let just have the pictures to tell you about the beauty of the garden.

In front of the powerscourt garden main entrance.

But before going further into the garden it is best if you can get a picture of how the garden is so that you wont loose track or miss any part of this one big garden. huhu. so here is a map of the powerscourt. although the map was a bit blurring, but hope it'll still be of some help. keep on track! ^_< 

Here are the places/spots/stops/stations in the garden:-

1. Italian Garden
2. Tower Valley
3. Japanese Garden
4. Triton Lake
5. Pets' Cemetery
6. Dolphin Pond
7. Walled Gardens and Julia Memorial
