The highlight of this park is its location. There is always some good excuse to be in that area to take a walk along the corniche, visit the museum, shop, or meet friends in the nearby large park. Other people believe that same, since this park is always busy with kids and families. There are many structures to climb on, swings, teeter boards, merry-go-round, and others. The park attendant runs a small snack shop inside the park. I am not sure of the operating hours, since the park does close in the evening. It is most likely to open from 09:00 until dusk. Other options nearby include:
  • Large Al-Manshiyah Park adjacent to the playground that is suitable for walking, resting, or having a picnic.
  • Long path to the north of the park that stays near the water and goes for at least 10km all the way to . This is can be for walking or running
  • National Museum immediately across the street
  • Wan Mart shopping mall with grocery store, restaurant, and video games
  • The Casino hotel with reasonable accommodations, rates, and restaurant
  • The center of town with all other services is no more than 10 minutes away walking to the east
  • Hours of Operation: From: 12:00 AM To: 12:00 AM
