Park in Doha, Qatar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aspire Park is located in Aspire Zone, in the southern district of Baaya in Doha, Qatar.[1] It covers an area of 88 hectares and it is Doha's biggest park. It is a popular place to have picnics and outdoor gatherings while overlooking the Aspire Tower. The park has different features such as fountains, playgrounds for children, and other features. It has the only lake in Qatar, a small hill, a coffee shop where different kinds of beverages can be bought, and various kinds of trees, both rare and common.[2][1][3] Located close by is the Aspire Tower, a 300-meter modern hotel, which served as a giant torch for the 15th Asian Games.[4] On 23 March, 2020, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry closed the park, along with other parks, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] It has been since reopened.
