Habibullah Zazai Park (Pashto: حبيب الله ځاځي پارک), also known simply as Zazai Park, is an amusement park and a recreation area located east of Bagrami and south of Ahmad Shah Baba Mina in Kabul, Afghanistan.[1] It is named after Habibullah Zazai, the owner and developer of the park.[2][3] The two "z" letters in Zazai are correctly pronounced the same like in the given name of Hollywood star, Zsa Zsa Gabor.

Zazai park has various rides and provides large walking space with great views of the city.[4] Among the rides, the Ferris wheel, pirate ship and swing ride are the popular ones. The park also has a mosque, an indoor arcade, and places to lounge and eat food.
