This landscaping project introduces the first of its kind urban park in Hargeisa, envisioned as a contemporary and sustainable public space that responds sensitively to its natural and cultural surroundings. Designed to celebrate the region’s landscape, the park seamlessly integrates local environmental features with modern landscape architectural elements, creating a destination that is both functional and inspiring. It stands as a model for forward thinking urban design in emerging African cities.

At the heart of the park are a series of thoughtfully curated experiences that cater to a diverse community. Visitors are welcomed to a scenic viewing deck that overlooks the striking acacia tree forest and flowing river, offering a tranquil connection to nature. The park also features a dynamic amphitheater enhanced by a captivating dancing fountain, alongside a unique dining space set within a serene lake environment. Complementing these are a vibrant jogging track and an engaging children’s playground, ensuring accessibility and enjoyment for all age groups.

More than just a recreational space, this project represents a significant step in advancing sustainable and culturally rooted landscape design across the region. It reflects a commitment to creating environments that enrich daily life while respecting local identity and ecology. As part of Zana’s broader vision, the Hargeisa Park sets a new benchmark for public spaces, paving the way for future developments that aim to transform urban landscapes across Ethiopia and Africa.
