Dr. Osama Talaat, head of the Islamic, Coptic and Jewish antiquities sector at the Supreme Council of Antiquities, said that the restoration and maintenance work in the Andalus Park are not demolishing the garden as it was rumored, but rather it is the renewal and replacement of the irrigation system in the garden to avoid the dangers resulting from leakage of water from its fountain. The mosaic tiles were dismantled and they are still in their original place in the garden.
