Minaret Park Tourism

Minaret Park is situated in the heart of Erbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, a historic and culturally rich city. The park is home to the famous Mudhafaria Minaret, an ancient minaret situated adjacent to the park, providing not only a green space but also a glimpse into the region’s history. The minaret itself, which dates back to the 12th century, stands at approximately 36 meters high, and is an outstanding example of the fine brickwork architecture from the Atabeg period. Minaret Park offers a respite from the bustling city life with its spacious gardens, walking paths, and benches. The park is often bustling with families and individuals enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, and it becomes particularly lively in the evenings when the cooler temperatures bring out picnickers and social gatherings. The park also features small cafes and playgrounds for children, making it a popular spot for a leisurely stroll or family outing. The combination of historical significance and serene environment makes Minaret Park a cherished landmark in Erbil.
