Chapelizod is a village preserved within the city of Dublin, Ireland. It lies in the wooded valley of the River Liffey, near the Strawberry Beds and the Phoenix Park. The village is associated with Iseult of Ireland and the location of Iseult’s chapel.
The village is located astride the Liffey. The River Liffey wends its way through Chapelizod. The Liffey follows a serpentine route between the sloping hills which rise steeply in the vicinity of the village.
The distance from Chapelizod to Dublin city centre, it is approximately 3.8 km or 6.6 km, depending on the route. The journey by bus takes about 7-8 minutes [when I travelled there using the 26 bus it took more than fifteen minutes].
While Chapelizod is a connected community, there are some distinctions between the portions situated on either side of the River Liffey:
Village Center: The core of Chapelizod, with its historical square, shops, restaurants, and amenities, is firmly located on the north side of the river.
Residential Focus: The portion of Chapelizod south of the Liffey has a more residential character.
Historical Elements:
North Side: Boasts the landmark St. Laurence's Church (Church of Ireland) and the Magazine Fort within Phoenix Park.
