About
The park is a wide lawn ringed by a walking path, close to the river embankment road. In the evening food stalls and families fill it, and the riverside road beside it is a pleasant walk at sunset.
It is a city park rather than a sight, but a good place to sit after the launch or between visits.
Getting there: In the city, a short rickshaw ride from the launch ghat.
Things to do
- Walk the riverside road at sunset.
Good to know
