Fatima Jinnah Park, Municipal park in Islamabad, Pakistan
Fatima Jinnah Park is a large urban green space in the F-9 sector with extensive walking paths, jogging tracks, and landscaped gardens. The grounds also feature children's play areas and exercise stations, along with recreational facilities including swimming pools and entertainment complexes.
The park was inaugurated in 1992 by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and was named in honor of Fatima Jinnah, sister of Pakistan's founder Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Since its opening, it has become an important public space in Islamabad's development.
The grounds serve as a central gathering place where residents come together for community events and seasonal celebrations throughout the year. Weekends bring families and friends who spend time enjoying outdoor activities together.
The grounds have multiple entry points around the perimeter with ample parking and facilities including restrooms and seating areas. Visitors should plan to arrive in the early morning or late afternoon to enjoy the most pleasant temperatures.
The grounds feature a solar panel installation covering about 5 acres that generates electricity for the park, demonstrating renewable energy integration in the city. This setup shows how modern technology can be woven into public spaces.
