The Custom House Dublin a beatiful place to be at night

I was roaming in Dublin city center at night and this place looks really good at night and I was just amazed by this monument.

Construction started in 1781, and for his assistants, Gandon chose Irish artists such as Meath stone-cutter Henry Darley, Mason John Semple, and carpenter Hugh Henry. Every available mason in Dublin was engaged in the work. When it was completed and opened for business on 7 November 1791, it had cost £200,000 to build – a considerable sum at the time. The four facades of the building are decorated with coats-of-arms and ornamental sculptures (by Edward Smyth) representing Ireland's rivers. Another artist, Henry Banks, was responsible for the statue on the dome and other statues.
