Nehru Park in Delhi is one of the biggest and best-maintained public parks in the capital. So, if you’re looking for a lush space for a picnic, or a morning or evening stroll, we say you head over now. Oh, and just so you know, there's no entry fees for entering Nehru Park, New Delhi.
Nehru Park's timings are 5 AM to 8 PM and is open everyday. It’s spread over 80 acres and has concrete pathways for you to get your jog on. For activities, you'll find two open-air gyms and, quite obviously, a whole lot of green space to stretch, exercise, and even play a game of cricket or football. What we also love is how accessible it is because of it being so central.
The park is also great to take your dogs for walks — they'll be ecstatic when they see all that open space, so brace yourself — but make sure to clean up after them and leave the park in a neat, clean condition.
Nehru Park also hosts a bunch of music and food festivals throughout the year, especially once the weather gets colder, so you should keep a tab our weekly events list. Some of the best events hosted here include the Jazz Fest, Palate Fest, NDMC Art Fest, HT Imagine Fest, Maggi Fest and more. However, if there’s no food festival in sight and you’re famished, run over next door to Yashwant Place for amazing momo and other Tibetan, Chinese, and Nepali food.
