Sanayeh Park

I spent a few hours at Sanayeh Park (René Moawad Garden) and it’s easily one of my favorite spots in Beirut. It’s more than just a green space; it’s a history lesson. I loved seeing the old Ottoman fountain from 1900—it’s been beautifully preserved. The recent renovations really show. The jogging tracks are great and I noticed people actually using the bike lanes properly. It’s also very family-friendly; the playgrounds were full of kids and the whole place felt safe and clean. Pro tip: It’s right across from the National Library, so you can do both in one afternoon. Definitely a 5-star experience if you need a break from the city noise. Clean restrooms too, which is a huge plus!"

A very beautiful, green and well maintained park in the middle of the chaos all around, especially Hamra. There are many rides for children too. Jogging tracks are well marked and used often by people. Ample number of seating benches all around. Spending early morning or late evening rejuvenates your mind

In the middle of the chaos of Beirut (which I do enjoy nevertheless), lies this absolutely gorgeous park, I like to walk here and just spend a good hour or two just walking around the park and taking in the pretty greenery and flora, reading all the little info boards and just appreciating the park. There's a playground section for kids and it was pretty occupied so I can assume it's still a great place for parents to take their kids to. The park also accommodates bicycles and scooters with a lane that loops around the park, so if you've got one or rented one, it'd be a pretty enjoyable ride!

In the heart of Beirut, Sanayeh Park is one of the most beautiful places to take your kids for a fun day out with bikes, scooters, or roller skates. You can enjoy a leisurely walk, and there is a small play area with swings and slides for children. The park, which dates back to the early 1900s, features a large fountain, though it was empty during my visit. Pigeons also frequent the park, adding to its charm. There is a rental place outside of the park that offers rental for scooters 🛴 and bikes.

Small but beautiful garden in the heart of Beirut 🏡 Great for walking, running, relaxing or taking out the kids.

The only thing i did not like about this park is the fact the swings are not suitable for a young toddler . They are very strick even about playing with a baseball ⚾️ ball . The fountain is lovely . The playground is very nice . Ideal for s walk on a sunny day . It gets pretty crowded in the kids area .

very clean and neat garden, there's slides for kids, benches and chairs under trees, excellent for families with kids or older people who like gazing around at the beautiful trees with beards chirping around. i recommend going in the early morning or late afternoon as the sun can get really intense

This place is calm and soothing. I passed by at around noon on a cloudy day to study here and it was quiet. The pond in the middle is stunning. Although I know that this is a school day, otherwise it would be full of children running around. Drawback: nothing to stop the sun from burning you if it was sunny.
