Falaj Hazza Park - covering 31,000 square metres - draws on Al Ain's heritage through a walking trail inspired by the city's traditional falaj irrigation system. It includes two children's play areas, a water play zone, sports facilities, a 675-metre walkway, a mosque, and space for four food trucks.

Al Mureijeb Park is distinguished by its heritage character, with historic forts and swimming pools for both adults and children. The 38,000 square metre site also offers three play areas including a sand zone, multi-use and padel courts, a 340-metre walking path, and a mosque.

The three parks are part of a broader push by the municipality to upgrade public green spaces across Al Ain, which saw several parks including Al Towayya, Ghanima Central and Al Sarooj undergo renovation over the past year.

The reopenings add to a network of 279 parks across Al Ain, comprising 55 public parks and 224 pocket parks embedded in residential neighbourhoods, supported by 138 sports courts, jogging tracks, children's playgrounds, fitness zones, and facilities for people of determination, according to Al Ain City Municipality.
