This
is
one
of
the
better
parks
around
which
is
why
I
rated
it
4
stars,
but
compared
to
elsewhere,
it
definitely
would
rate
a
2-3
start
review.
Think
of
this
as
a
local
review.
There
are
2
sets
of
equipment,
one
for
smaller
children
and
one
for
bigger
kids.
There
are
some
fruit
trees
for
some
shade
and
a
ring
walkway
which
goes
around
the
inside
of
the
fenced
park
where
kids
run,
bicycle,
etc
around.
I
think
technically
the
bicycles
might
be
against
the
rules
but
really
there
aren't
many
other
places
in
the
area
to
ride
bikes.
There
is
also
a
swing
set
and
a
shaded
Cabana
and
some
benches.
The
Bad:
The
equipment
is
mainly
in
good
condition.
One
swing
has
been
broken
for
6
months
and
was
repaired
shoddily
with
wires
wrapped
to
hold
two
halves
of
the
chain
together.
I
don't
know
who
fixed
it.
The
ground
is
covered
by
sand
around
the
playground
for
the
small
children.
Unfortunately
since
Amman
has
a
problem
with
stray
cats,
this
sandbox
is
essentially
their
litter
box.
Cat
excrement
can
carry
disease
so
I
try
to
avoid
playing
with
my
kids
in
this
sand.
It
doesn't
appear
to
be
cleaned
often
or
at
all.
Some
of
the
equipment
can
get
very
hot
in
the
summer
sun,
like
scalding
hot.
I
would
only
let
older
kids
with
long
sleeves
and
pants
on.
Unfortunately,
in
the
summer,
you
have
to
be
very
careful
about
this.
Often
there
are
small
children
dropped
off
by
their
parents
or
guardians
at
the
entrance
to
the
park
to
sell
things.
These
kids
stand
there
all
day
in
the
heat
including
on
school
days.
I'm
honestly
not
sure
how
I
feel
about
this,
it's
a
complicated
issue.
But
I
bring
my
kids
there
to
have
fun,
not
to
have
to
think
about
the
complexities
of
poverty,
child
exploitation
and
refugees,
and
lack
of
education
perpetuating
the
same
poverty
(yes,
I
know
it
is
their
reality
all-day,
every
day).
The
Good:
There
is
almost
always
parking.
There
are
a
variety
of
different
kids
that
play
here
from
many
different
countries.
There
are
gendarmes
in
the
area
and
the
there
is
some
shade
to
sit
under,
which
is
more
than
many
parks
have.
The
area
is
residential
and
quiet.
There
are
usually
other
kids
to
play
with
and
this
is
a
known
hang
out
spot
for
many
of
the
nannies
in
the
area.
There
are
multiple
different
flooring
systems,
same,
grass
and
padded
rubber.
It
is
relatively
clean
compared
to
other
parks.
It
is
also
rather
big
compared
to
other
parks,
but
small
compared
to
foreign
parks.
