Revitalizing Heritage: Renovation of Shaab Tea House

Nestled in the heart of Sulaymaniyah, Shaab Tea House is a cherished symbol of cultural vibrancy, weaving together the threads of Kurdish heritage, literature, and political discourse. Adorned with portraits celebrating esteemed poets, writers, and freedom fighters, the tea house has long served as a venerable hub for Kurdish activities and meaningful discussions.

Recognizing the profound significance of Shaab Tea House in safeguarding Kurdish culture and history, MHF took on the responsibility of restoring this iconic establishment. The restoration project, undertaken with meticulous care and attention, adhered to rigorous engineering standards to ensure the preservation of the city's historical narrative. On the momentous date of July 6, 2021, the completed restoration was unveiled, inviting visitors once more to immerse themselves in the cultural tapestry and historical resonance of this revered tea house.

This initiative by MHF goes beyond mere restoration; it is a commitment to the continuity of cultural legacy and a celebration of the rich heritage that Shaab Tea House represents. Through this project, MHF aims to provide a welcoming space where generations can come together to appreciate, discuss, and perpetuate the essence of Kurdish identity.
