Kuh-e Sangi Park, Urban park in Mashhad, Iran
Kuh-e Sangi Park is an urban park in Mashhad built across two stone mountains with walking paths throughout. The site features children's play areas, seating zones, and water features integrated into the landscape.
The park was established in 1939 during the Pahlavi period and displays architectural features from that era. This design marked it as one of the early modern parks developed in the region.
Families come here regularly for picnics and outdoor cooking, keeping alive traditional ways of gathering in nature. These communal moments show how the place serves as a social center for the neighborhood.
The park has shops, restroom facilities, and carriage rides available for visitors throughout the grounds. Evening is the better time to visit when temperatures drop and the place becomes more populated.
The mountain summit is reachable by long staircases and offers views of Mashhad's skyline spreading across the city. This vantage point reveals the urban expanse in a way many visitors miss on their first trip.
