Bachelor's Walk extends along the north side of the Liffey from O'Connell Street. Around the millennium a boardwalk was built above the water. As elsewhere along the Quays, the river is overlooked by Georgian style facades in various styles, heights and colours. Most date from the 18th century but a few are recently built. Birds are in residence all along the river - Here a seagull passes close to our viewpoint.

The boardwalk is a useful and attractive addition to the Quays, providing extra space and a pleasant area to walk on.
