Special attention to the environment[edit]

However, the completion of the preparation of the "Mountain Park" project coincided with the widespread outbreak of COVID-19, and this global pandemic prevented the citizens of Mashhad from taking advantage of the space created in the nature of the city of Mashhad in the southern highlands.[7]
