פארק אריאל שרון

Ariel Sharon Park, also known as Hiriya, is one of the world's most impressive environmental rehabilitation projects, having transformed a massive former landfill into a sprawling green park. The centerpiece is the 'Mountain of Garbage' which has been capped and turned into a plateau with stunning 360-degree views of the entire Gush Dan metropolitan area. The park includes a visitor center that explains the recycling and rehabilitation process through interactive exhibits. There are extensive walking and cycling paths, as well as man-made ponds and lush vegetation. The atmosphere is one of hope and ecological innovation, showing how a blight on the landscape can become a public asset. It is ideal for families and those interested in sustainability and urban planning. The sunsets from the top of the mound are particularly breathtaking.
