I walked there on Sunday and was exhausted, because of the heat, but there is an excellent bus service if you know what stops to use &#8211; there are four bus stops on Con Colbert Road [two in each directions] at there is a bus every few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sunken rose gardens at Islandbridge are a beautiful and tranquil spot in the Irish National War Memorial Gardens. They are located to the north of the gardens, and they are divided into two sections by a pergola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sunken rose gardens are home to a variety of roses, including hybrid teas, floribundas, and grandifloras. The roses are planted in beds that are surrounded by low walls, and they are arranged in a variety of patterns. The gardens are also home to a number of other flowers, including lavender, clematis, and hydrangeas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sunken rose gardens are a popular spot for visitors and locals alike. They are a peaceful and tranquil place to relax and enjoy the beauty of the flowers. The gardens are also a popular spot for weddings and photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some additional information about the sunken rose gardens:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The gardens were designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, the same architect who designed the rest of the Irish National War Memorial Gardens.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The gardens were planted in 1939, and they were officially opened in 1940.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The gardens are open to the public free of charge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The gardens are open from 8am to 6pm, from April to September, and from 9am to 5pm, from October to March.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color has-background
