Horsh Beirut, Urban park in Mazraa district, Beirut, Lebanon

The park spans 300,000 square meters of green space with over 8,000 pine trees within the municipal boundaries of southern Beirut.

Originally a pine forest, the land faced timber exploitation from Crusader, Mamluk, and Ottoman armies who used the wood for shipbuilding and weapons.

The park reopened to the public in 2015 after 25 years of restricted access, marking a victory for civil society movements in Beirut.

The park opens daily from 7 AM to 7 PM, offering free entry and multiple facilities for sports, cycling, and recreational activities.

Located between multiple neighborhoods, the park contains dedicated areas for children's games, reading spaces, and walking paths among ancient pine trees.
