It's a really nice and peaceful haven on the bustling press enclave road. I'm speaking more from a casual visitor view rather than historical.
I visited after almost 20 years, when earlier I used to bring my toddlers here for a day picnic. Was happy to see nothing much changed(in a good way!)... The remnant Fort Wall is still there and apart from its historical value, it definitely adds to the rustic appeal.
Winter is the best time to spend a lazy afternoon here. There are ample open areas where you can absorb the winter sun, plus enjoy the beauty of a lot of old trees.
Guards and maali seem to be doing a good job.
However, it's shocking to see there are no dustbins throughout the park! Though an eyesore, dustbins are a must at big parks. Still the area is surprisingly clean, though a bit rough in the edges, where all the dried leaves have been piled. Hence a couple of composting pits will be welcome too. Stil I'm thankful to the visitors who didn't leave behind much litter(seems like we Indians have finally arrived!) and the workers who did a good job clearing up the mess. As for me, I saved my orange peels for the lone dustbins in the parking area.
