💡 Combine with a walk through the nearby old Christian quarter—Qaraqosh—for a different vibe. No entrance fee, but bring water as there’s little shade in the park.
💡 Bring bread to feed the fish and ducks—kids love it. The park has separate family and men-only areas; women should bring a scarf for modesty near the mosque section.
💡 The attendant can often explain the patterns and tribal meanings if you ask. Visit on a weekday morning when it's quietest.
