The opening as it read in October 6, 2023

Crazy Water Aqua Fun Park was a water park in the Gaza Strip that served the territory's small wealthy class.1 The park opened in May 2010 and was burned down by masked men in September 2010, after being closed by the Palestinian Hamas de facto government for allowing men and women to mingle. In July, one Australian newspaper called it "the new sensation" among Gaza's "privileged." Mohammed Al-Araj , a former economics minister for the Hamas de facto government in the Gaza Strip, was one of the owners of the park. Two thousand families visited the Crazy Water Park during the first four days that it was open. "As the Israeli blockade eases, Gaza goes shopping" , Donald Macintyre, 26 July 2010, The Independent .
