Gaza International Airport, east of Rafah governorate in the southern Gaza Strip, which once served as the gate of old Palestine and was destroyed in 2001, has been recently turned into a racetrack.
After having been a dump for many years with garbage filling its runway, the airport-turned-racetrack opened its doors to dozens of owners of racehorses, camels and cars from across the Gaza Strip, and to citizens to enjoy the shows and races.
