20 Apr 2007 @ evening.
We went to Zabeel Park which is 15mins walk from Karama-the area where we are staying. We usually go to this park for a jog during the weekend evening. This week I decided to bring along my camera to capture some photos for memorance. Unfortunately it was a stormy day - very hazy and dusty. Anyway, I just took some photos of the area that we're staying and the park that we went to... It's summer now, so the flower have been changed to morning glory-which could stand the terrible heat in the dessert.
Zabeel park is located in the heart of the city, it was opened in 2005 on 51 hectares of land distributed over three plots connected by means of bridges. According to the Dubai municipality, they have spent Dh200 million to develop the park, private investors have so far invested Dh300 million in different projects, including Stargate Family Edutainment Center and a sports club.
The park incorporates a wide range of facilities such as a boating lake, sports center, a synthetic jogging track of 4.3km, BMX trail, Cricket field, football field, exhibition gallery,activity area including mini golf, adventure play, informal recreation areas, barbecue facilities, shaded seating, play areas and an arena can accommodate more than 2,000 people, restaurant and refreshment kiosk. Entrance fee is Dhs.5.
We did not enter the park, we just jog on the proper jogging track which is available outside the park.
