Located in the heart of Zagazig, the Corniche (mksoud) provides a dedicated public space for walking and relaxation along the Moise Canal. The promenade is appreciated for its cleanliness and the refreshing views it offers, especially during the winter season when the rain enhances the atmosphere. While it is a popular spot for a 'good walk,' the experience is best enjoyed late in the evening to avoid the daytime heat.

Reviews for the Zagazig Corniche are mixed, highlighting both its scenic appeal and some practical drawbacks. Many visitors enjoy the clean walkway and the lovely views of the Moise Canal, particularly late at night or during the winter. However, a significant number of reviewers complain about the granite seating, which becomes uncomfortably hot under the sun. While some appreciate the calm atmosphere and lack of aggressive vendors, others mention being bothered by beggars and rowdy groups of youths. Lighting at night is noted as being somewhat dim, which may affect the experience for some. Overall, it is considered a decent local spot for a walk if visited during cooler hours.
