Want to know a Dublin Secret? πŸ‘€β€‹ Since 1890, Phoenix Park’s roads and paths have been illuminated by 224 Victorian gas lamps and have been tended to by one Dublin family since, the Flanagans. βœ¨β€‹ Keeping the tradition alive, Jim Flanagan and his brother Frank manually wind the century-old timers in each lamp every 14 days, making sure the lights come on at just the right time. πŸ•°οΈβ€‹ Want to learn more?
