Izghawa

The majority of urban settlement is based in the east, in Izghawa 51, some of which is situated in a rawda (depression). In the western portion, or Izghawa 71, there is a large undeveloped tract of land, some farms and a wadi named Wadi Izghawa Al Gharbi.^[1]

One of the settlement's defining landmarks is the Izghawa Park. Occupying an area of over 14,000 m² (150,000 sq ft), the park was opened in 2006 to provide a green space for residents. In addition to its numerous trees and ornamentals, the parks facilities include a mosque, a children's play area, a volleyball court, and a basketball court.^[5] In April 2018, the second-ever branch of The Center for the Empowerment and Care of Older Persons was constructed within the park. The center provides a range of services and facilities to those over 60 years old.^[6]

Currently, the elevated Izghawa Metro Station is under construction, having been launched during Phase 2A. Once completed, it will be part of Doha Metro's Green Line.^[7]
