Gaza City Riding Club Is Booming
(Guardian-UK) Harriet Sherwood - On a Friday evening on the edge of Gaza City, the tables at Faisal fill up with young women wearing brightly-patterned headscarves and high heels beneath their jilbabs. But the main attraction at Gaza's riding club is the horses, many imported through the tunnels dug beneath the border with Egypt. The Faisal riding club hosted its first showjumping tournament in July. Next door is the Crazy Water Park, a swimming center with chutes and slides, alongside a burgeoning number of seafront cafes.
