Zakir Hussain Rose Garden

Suresh Menon 34 months ago

Zakir Hussain Rose Garden in Chandigarh is believed to be the largest rose garden in Asia.
In addition to roses, the promotional literature says there are over 1000 varieties there, there are also several medicinal herbs, plants and trees. The roses are laid out in aesthetically designed flowerbeds, surrounded by beautifully landscaped areas interspersed with trees and flowering shrubs.
I couldn't see the garden in full bloom as I visited towards the end of March in 2015, after the Rose Festival was over, and many of the flowerbeds were being relaid for the next season.
There are some fountains towards one of the entrances, and a large wind chime.

What a beautiful place is this! ????????????????

I actually experienced this place is monsoon and it was my first experience over here but after visiting this place now I'm really really looking forward to visit this place again in winter as so many roses will grow at rapid pace and atmosphere will be more interesting at that time.

I haven't seen so many types of shade of different different roses till now and it's just a pure pure beauty to witness and i must admit that what a wonderful landscaping has been done. It's just damn good.

The place itself will give you so much soothing vibe. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Zakir Hussain Rose Garden is very nice and special place to visit in Chandigarh. The garden is very well maintained and you will be amazed to see the different varieties and colours of roses. This is the largest Rose Garden in Asia and is spread over an area of 40 acres and has more than 32,500 plants representing around 825 varieties of roses. This is nice place if you want to spend some time in peace. However the flowering season is mostly in summers so in winters the flowering is scarce. Kids also have a play area inside the garden so they can equally enjoy. Rose festival here is very popular. Must visit this place.
