This was my favorite park back then!!!. I still remember my childhood when I used to visit this park. However back then there was nothing much other than those animal structures which was the most exciting part. Well later I stopped going due to low maintenance. Most of the things where damaged and broken. I am happy to know that people are thinking about developing this place and make this more exciting. I liked the idea of involving educative things for kids and also a special park for special kids!!!. Hope this is done soon and is MAINTAINED!!!
It is one of the best park in centre of City..
Glad to hear this news.. hope make over will be fastest as possible …
