Azhar Park

Nestled in the heart of historic Cairo, Egypt, Azhar Park is a 72-acre oasis of tranquility and beauty. Designed by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture, the park was built on a former landfill site and opened to the public in 2005. Today, it is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, offering a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Azhar Park is inspired by the rich history and traditions of Islamic gardens. The park’s design features geometric patterns, water features, and lush greenery. Visitors can stroll along the serene walkways, relax in the shade of the trees, or enjoy the views of the Cairo Citadel and the City of the Dead.

One of the highlights of Azhar Park is the central axis, a formal walkway lined with fountains and flowerbeds. This leads to a small lake, which is a popular spot for picnicking and boating.

The park also has a number of other attractions, including a children’s playground, a cafe, and an amphitheater. There are also regular events held in the park, such as concerts, art exhibitions, and festivals.

Azhar Park is a great place to relax, unwind, and learn about Islamic culture. It is a must-see for any visitor to Cairo.
