History
The garden was built only recently and was inaugurated on 8th May 2008 by former Chief Minister of Rajasthan, Vasundhara Raje. As the name suggests, the park is dedicated to our late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, who was also the youngest Prime Minister of our country. The park also has a statue of him in his memory.
Architecture
Rajiv Gandhi Garden is spread across various acres and is as close to nature as one can get in city life. If you have been to Mysore’s Brindavan Garden, you will find a striking resemblance between both of these parks. The garden through its architecture, statues of wildlife & fountains and the presence of lush green trees is also trying to pass on the message of conserving wildlife, nature & water. A special children’s garden has been constructed which has various swings & slides such as the merry-go-round, spider-web for kids to play safely and have a good time. There is also a huge space of land that’s been converted into a fountain and can be reached by climbing a few stairs. A slight view of the lake can also be seen from here.
Things to Do at the Haveli & at the Museum
- Families can have a great time celebrating a picnic. Whether you come in small or large groups, you are bound to have fun. During winters, you can bask under the sun and enjoy simply being with nature.
- Kids can enjoy running around in the park, play various games like cricket, badminton or even enjoy the swings & slides.
- There is a Rolling Mountain known as the Lotan Magri where one can climb a few steps to reach the peak of the garden, lie down on the grass and simply roll down the mountain. One can keep repeating this exercise which is both fun and is said to have acupressure benefits.
