More facilities for community
at Mushrif Park

ABU DHABI — Mushrif Park will be transformed into a community-based area and renamed ‘Mushrif Central Park’, a media release from the Abu Dhabi-based developer Seba Properties LLC said on Tuesday.

Located in the centre of Abu Dhabi’s main island, Mushrif Park was originally opened in 1982 to serve as a residential park for ladies and children. Now it is recognised that many of its attractions and facilities need to be updated.

“Mushrif Central Park will become a focal point for all of the community to experience and enjoy. It will be seen as a safe and secure destination, but also inviting and inspiring, offering something for everyone to appreciate, experience and enjoy. It will be truly, a ‘People’s Park’,” said Ahmed D. Dagher Al Marar, vice chairman of Al Ain Group, holding company of Seba Properties.

Set among 14 hectares of tranquil landscaped informal and formal gardens, alongside tree-lined promenades, Mushrif Central Park will feature many new attractions and facilities, including an interactive Children’s Museum and Petting Zoo. Water features and fountains abound throughout, while over three kilometres of walking and jogging trails traverse the park.

For horticulturists or those who just enjoy flora and fauna, there will be a botanic garden and a shade house to enjoy, while Abu Dhabi’s arts and cultural heritage will be nurtured through the Performing Arts Centre and Sculpture Garden, all located within the Park.
