Wazir Bagh, Historic garden in Peshawar, Pakistan.

The four-section garden features a pavilion, mosque, football ground, two lawns, and a pond with fountains surrounded by trees.

Sardar Fateh Mohammad Khan Barkzai established Wazir Bagh in 1810 after overthrowing Shah Shuja's rule in Peshawar.

The garden serves as a gathering place for tennis ball cricket tournaments during Ramadan, maintaining local sporting traditions.

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government allocated 100 million rupees in 2020 to restore and refurbish the deteriorating garden structures.

During its peak, the garden contained multiple fruit trees including apricots, peaches, pomegranates, and pears among flowering plants.
