Garden Of Five Sense
Description:
The Garden of Five Senses in Delhi is situated in the Said-ul-Ajaib village, near Mehrauli-Badarpur Road. Its Developed by the Delhi Tourism Transportation Development Corporation, it was inaugurated in the year 2003. As its name suggests, Garden of Five Senses in Delhi was set up in a way to stimulate our five senses with its beauty and attractions. Various features of the garden of five seasons help us in exercising all the five senses of touch, sight, smell.The garden serves as the venue of a number of festivals like Garden tourism festival, food festivals, Dandiya festivals etc along with various cultural programs. It was the ideal ground on which to realize the concept of a public leisure space that would awaken a sensory response and thereby a sensitivity to the environment.Soaring stainless-steel birds mounted on slate-clad pillars welcome you into the park. An expansive plaza, set on the natural slope of the site, invites you up the spiral walkway. Across, a troop of elephants, cut in stone, regaling in a water bath, tempts exploration.
The garden itself is divided into distinct areas. On one side of the spiral walkway is the Khas Bagh, a formal garden patterned on the lines of the Mughal Garden. Slow-moving water cascades in channels along its length, while flowering and fragrant shrubs and trees line its paths. The Central axis leads to a series of fountains, some of which are lit up by fibreoptic lighting systems. Encapsulating the expression here is the sculpture of 'A Fountain Tree".
