36 pictures that show Tallaght is a beautiful place to live

Over the past six weeks we at Echo.ie have been asking you to send us your favourite pictures of Tallaght and the surrounding areas.

From sunrises to sunsets and from parks to the village, we have collected what we believe are some of the most beautiful pictures of Tallaght.

We’ve also included some of the more quirky photos we were sent, including one which features a well-known lover of the drive-thru McDonalds on the Belgard Road, and another that captures the (lengthy) construction of the new cycle path through the village.

Parks featured heavily in the submissions we received too, and between Tymon, Sean Walsh and Dodder Valley Park, we really are lucky to live in Tallaght.

We often forget how Tallaght is the gateway to the Dublin mountains, and with so much beauty, where else would you want to live.
