Today HRH Crown Prince Al Hussein Bin Abdullah II represented his father HM King Abdullah at the inauguration of the King Abdullah park  named after his father in the Irbid Governorate. 

The park, covering a total area of about 178 dunums, will serve as a recreational, sport and cultural landmark and a breathing space to the people of Irbid and surrounding areas.

The Crown Prince unveiled a commemorative plaque and planted an olive tree as he toured the park, which was constructed at a cost of JD15 million, and housed a conservatory, bird park, sports fields, play areas for children, a 280-meter-long artificial river among other facilities.
