The soon-to-open Gulistan Hazar Khawani Park has become Peshawar’s first largest and beautiful public park at an area of 256 Kanal, which was developed on a landfill site. Six months back it was a black spot and a largest dumping ground in the provincial capital and now has been transformed into a stunning park with a lot of facilities including jogging and walking tracks, play areas for children, zoo area, rose gardens and big lawns for Peshawarites.

The park is located at the junction of motorway toll plaza, GT Road and Ring road, he said and informed that earlier it was a dumping site where waste of the whole city was being dumped from last two years.
