    The Poulaphouca Reservoir, located near Blessington in County Wicklow, Ireland, is a large man-made reservoir created in the 1930s by the construction of the Poulaphouca Dam on the River Liffey. It was built primarily to supply water to Dublin, and its creation led to the formation of Blessington Lake. The reservoir is an important part of Dublin's water supply system and is also a popular spot for recreational activities, as well as offering stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
