Although the tweet did not specify any particular reason for the change in the opening hours, Doha News reports that residents who frequent the park have been asking for the park to be open earlier than its usual hours, especially during such cool weather.
The park previously opened its gates only at 10:30AM and closed at 11:00PM. Now however, the public can enjoy it throughout, round the clock.
However, the park’s parking lot is closed due to maintenance and improvements to the area and also, bungee trampolines, bike hire and paddle boats are also out of commission until October, according to a statement on the park’s official website.
Are you a frequent visitor to the MIA Park? What do you like about it?
A lot of nefarious characters would. Hope they have adequate security measures in place.
Who would want to go there in the middle of the night
