A landscaped south Delhi garden with themed spaces, art and walking paths.
The Garden of Five Senses is a stunning 20-acre public garden in Said-ul-Ajaib, South Delhi, designed to stimulate all five senses — sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste. Developed by the Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation, it was inaugurated in 2003 and has since become one of Delhi's most beautiful and unique recreational spaces.
The garden features themed zones, sculpture trails, fragrant herb gardens, food courts, and an outdoor amphitheatre. It is especially magical during its annual Mango and Chrysanthemum festivals.
The Garden of Five Senses is thoughtfully designed around five sensory experiences. Each zone of the garden corresponds to one of the senses, creating a holistic and immersive nature experience unlike any other public garden in Delhi.
