Al Zawra’a Gardens, Public garden and zoo in Baghdad, Iraq.

Al Zawra'a Gardens spans over 750 acres in central Baghdad, featuring thousands of trees, flower beds, walking paths, and numerous recreational facilities.

The gardens were established in the early 1970s on former military grounds, with 300 acres later allocated for a ceremonial square during the 1980s.

The gardens host the Baghdad International Flower Festival, bringing together local residents for traditional food, entertainment, and community gatherings throughout the year.

Entry tickets cost 1000 Iraqi dinars per person, with the park remaining open from 9:00 AM to 9:30 PM daily, including access to the zoo.

The gardens contain a dedicated astronomical observatory dome and a viewing tower, alongside a zoo housing more than 1,070 animal species.
