About this place

Shaqlawa has been the summer town of Erbil for a century, and its one long street is the whole show: kebab houses, juice stands, shops of honey, walnuts and the sticky sweets people take home. Safeen mountain stands right behind it, so the evening air drops several degrees. Park at one end and walk.

Visiting times

Shops and grills from about 9:00 until midnight in summer, earlier in winter.

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