Attractions

Mughal Gardens

Mughal Garden

The Mughal Garden, located within the Rashtrapati Bhavan complex in New Delhi, is a stunning example of Mughal-style horticulture blended with British landscaping. Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens in 1917, the garden spans over 15 acres and showcases a symmetrical layout, terraced lawns, water channels, and blooming flowerbeds. It features a wide variety of roses, tulips, marigolds, and seasonal blooms, making it a visual treat during the annual "Udyan Utsav" when it opens to the public. Influenced by Persian gardens, it includes charbagh-style divisions, fountains, and lily-covered pools. The garden also houses a bonsai section, herbal and spiritual gardens, and beautifully manicured hedges. A peaceful oasis in the heart of the capital, the Mughal Garden is a symbol of refined beauty, regal elegance, and India's rich horticultural heritage.
