AL-FERGHANI PARK

The former Governor's Gardens have been redeveloped into a municipal park and Mustakillik Avenue, which borders it, into a pedestrian street. This is where the department stores, banks and post office are located. The park is a walking area where you can breathe surprisingly well, almost forgetting that you are in the country's second largest industrial city. It is common to see wedding convoys passing by, taking photographs in front of the gigantic statue of Al-Ferghani, a local scientist known for his work in astronomy.
