Al Shaheed Park

After being home-bound for the past three weeks or so, due to many assignments and projects, I finally allowed myself to go out and take a little break.
I decided to go to Al Shaheed Park since it is a very beautiful and calm park with lots of things to see and do.

Many people enjoy going on early morning jogging sessions, but I just wanted to take a stroll. I even happened to bump into a friend that I hadn’t seen in like eight months!
There are lots of sculptures to see there, including the ‘Freedom’, ‘Raising Our Sails’, ‘Map Abstraction’ and a few others.

There are two museums that you could look at; the ‘Thekra Museum’, which focuses on the history of Kuwait and its major battles, and the ‘Habitat Museum’, which focuses on teaching people about the environment and bird migration.
Other things included in the park are a man-made lake and waterfall, restaurants and coffee shops, gift shops, tracks for walking or jogging, and lots of greenery.

They even provide tours and events, so you can enjoy a complete experience of the park.

Below are a few snaps I had taken while there, which I hope you enjoy. Do consider visiting if you haven’t already done so.
