Meir Kahane Park, Public park in Kiryat Arba, Israel.

The park features a memorial stone with inscriptions, paved walking paths, and open spaces surrounded by natural vegetation near Jerusalem's mountains.

The park was established in 1990 by Baruch Goldstein to commemorate Meir Kahane, who was killed in New York by an Egyptian-born assassin.

The location includes a burial site that attracts religious gatherings during Purim, leading authorities to implement specific security measures each year.

The park entrance is located on Caleb Ben Yefuneh Boulevard, offering visitors spaces for recreational activities and community gatherings throughout the day.

Following incidents at the memorial site, Israel's parliament passed a law in 1998 prohibiting monuments commemorating individuals involved in terrorist acts.
