/ Attractions / Parks And Gardens
Dubai
has numerous well-maintained public parks and gardens which are
extremely popular hangouts for families with some of them having
certain days reserved only for ladies and children.
Providing a respite from the urban life, the parks feature a host
of recreational facilities including children's playgrounds and
swimming pools, camel and pony rides, colourful gardens and manicured
lawns, restaurants and cafetarias.
Some of the favourite haunts include Al Mamzar Beach Park situated
on Al Mamzar Creek at the Dubai-Sharjah border; the Dubai Creekside
Park between Al Maktoum and Al Garhoud bridges overlooking the
creek; the shoreside Jumeira Beach Park featuring full beach facilities
with round-the-clock lifeguard service and a helipad; the large
Mushrif National Park on Al Awir Road, past the Dubai International
Airport, noted for its miniature International Village featuring
different styles of architecture from around the world; and the
Safa Park on Al Wasl Road; and Umm Suqueim Park, one of the largest
youngster-oriented parks in Umm Suqueim. Besides these, there
are several small family parks well equipped with children's play
areas including Al Hamriya Park, Al Khazzan Park, Al Wasl Park,
Rashidiya Park, and Al Towar Park.
