- Since time immemorial, Delhi has been both the capital city of the
Indian sub-continent and also a "Garden City". Rulers and administrators
have vied with each other to create exquisite gardens in this city-beautiful.
- DDA is maintaining the green areas around monuments under its jurisdiction,
thus preserving their old grandeur.
- The result of this labour is beautiful alcoves of manicured lawns
and landscaped gardens, be they around the Qutub Minar or the Tughlaqabad
Fort.
- The erstwhile glory of monuments and historical relics like Siri Fort,
Hauz Khas, Purana Quila, Quila Rai Pithora, Idgah and Matka Pir has
been maintained by the DDA proving befitting landscape and greenery
to the areas around them.
- These are ideal picnic spots for the citizens, complete with facilities
like boating and playgrounds, even as the visitors breath in Delhi's
historic splendor along with the fresh air.
