The cleanliness of the place is a matter people should look after. Also, it's kind of a 'lovers' spot' ambience around... that's a bit weird at times. But nevertheless the boat rides are amazing (tho the charges are a bit high but that's worth the experience). And I would prefer this place to all photographers and artists because of the scenic moments it offers :))

An extremely extraordinary and excellent place to enlivenment. A place to forget all to free yourself and connected you to nature and history. I trust this is the best and beautiful part of city of joy. Every visit will give different and Divine experience. I just love to spend maximum time here and only in the bank of Ganga. Wonderful place indeed.

Good experience. There was a very nice concert going on when we were here. It was a very good experience. Great vibes. Snacks, tea and water stalls are available. Boating during sunset was very soothing and peaceful.

This is just beautiful. Very well developed by the corporation. The river on one side with boats roaming around. They there is a really long walk way. This has been nicely laid out. It is fully covered with big trees and so it remains cool. It is also very clean with animal shaped garbage bins provided at frequent intervals. On the other side is the tracks of the local train service followed by the main road. This is must visit for those who love calm and quiet. You can just sit there and relax. For foodies, there are also some food stalls.
