Very beautiful place for a family visit or a picnic. The entry is totally free, when you enter you see a huge parking area, on the right hand side there is a kid's play area. Then inside there ia a huge lake with well illuminated fountains which start at around 7 in the evening. Boating facility is also available there(expensive according to me). The walkway pillars and the trees all are well illuminated. The best time to visit is at around 6:30 in the evening so that you can attend the fountain show. Also the kid's area is very huge and full of rides for them to enjoy. The place is full of benches and grass to chill and enjoy beauty.

There are cafe/restaurant outside the place but not inside although you can bring food/stuff with you to eat inside.

Such a beautiful place to hang out and go on a walk. There's no entry fee. If you wish to have a boat ride even that it's possible. The spectacular view is worth everything street food also available here

To be honest, a bit boring.
Go with minimum expectations and you will like it. There is a fountain show at around 6:30 pm. If you miss it, it's gone.

A bit of portion is well lighted and wind is clean and pure, so you can walk around with your family and that alone is worth the 3 stars. Other than that there is nothing.

If you have kids, there is a small park area for rides of kids.

There is NO ticket. No food stalls. However just outside the gate there are many road side stalls.

Boating for me was useless. Coz they take a speed boat and take you to the side of lake which is not much lighted or beautiful. So money waste, in my opinion.

Needs a bit more commercialization and then you would see it becoming more like Lakes in Bhopal and Ahmedabad
