About this place

Azmar and Goizha close the city on the north-east, and a paved road climbs part way to cafés and pull-offs where the whole of Sulaymaniyah lies below. Sunset is the hour; in winter the top gets snow and city families drive up just to see it. The road is narrow, so come down before dark.

Visiting times

Any hour; best an hour before sunset. No ticket. The last bends can be icy in winter.

Times can change on holidays and in bad weather. Ask us in the direct chat if you need the current hours.
