Al-Khor Park reserves an extra day for women and kids
The recently opened Al-Khor Park has allocated one more day for women and children. Previously, only Tuesdays were reserved as women’s and children’s day. Now, Thursdays too are to be kept aside for women and children.
This decision was announced by the Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME) in its official twitter account and was taken due to the huge rush that the park witnessed on Tuesdays.
IMPORTANT: It is decided to reserve 1 extra day (THURSDAY) along with (TUESDAY) for Women+kids to visit #AlkhorPark pic.twitter.com/X9Elugyj7e

“The park, which opened after renovation in February, receives hundreds of visitors every day and on weekends it goes up to thousands. It has turned into the most sought after picnic spot for families on weekend,” says The Peninsula.
Along with the shady picnic spots, the park also has a mini zoo, with animals and birds shifted from the Doha Zoo which is undergoing renovation and an added attraction is a train operating with battery and can accommodate 36 people to take a tour at the park
The zoo will be open from 8am to 10pm on all days and on Tuesday and Thursday entry is restricted to women and children and other days for families.
Entry fee is QR5 per adult.
It is to stop men harrassing / ogling women. It allows women and children to have fun at the park.
Win / Win for all
This is really nonsense.
