Hi,
friends. I've visited this place a couple of times now. Lumbini Park is one of the well-known
parks in Hyderabad. It is located in the middle of the city adjoining to
Hussain Sagar Lake and it is opposite to the famous NTR Garden.
Boat
ride and the laser show are the most special attractions here. There are
varieties of boats to go around the statue. But not all the boats stop near the
statue in the middle of the lake. I used the ferry option as I wanted to go
near the statue to take pictures. It halted there for some-ten minutes. Speed
boat option is also available there.
It's
a nice view from the statue and it's quite awesome. Remember, on weekend it is
quite crowded. Evening is the perfect time to visit this place. Also below, the
National Flag of India is the tallest flag in India, Hyderabad, which can be
seen from quite a far distance.
Well,
what makes this place even more interesting? This lake is a heart-shaped and
was built by Ibrahim Quli Qutub Shah in year 1563, during his rule. By the way
the statue of Gautama Buddha was erected in 1992, so that's not that old
depending on in which year reading this post :D The depth of this lake is approximately
30 feet. Well, it is very deep for someone who can't swim like me :P
Yes.
You will find some ducks there and an awful lot of bats, huge ones. You can see
the Birla Temple from here, which is approximately 15-20 minutes away from
here. You can take Uber, Ola, etcetera to get there.
Note
for photographers: You can carry your DSLRs in the park, but not tripods.
They've arranged a place for your stuff just in case if you carry your tripod,
so you can keep your tripods and other stuff there, but I won't suggest you to
do that. Around the park, carrying tripods is not a problem.
Please
check my other posts as well as I have written about and posted pictures of
other interesting places here as well. Also do not forget to follow me on
Instagram. I love taking pictures and posting there.
