This is a big and one of the oldest (if not the oldest) park right in the heart of the city. Also known as Dampier park after the name of the locality it is adjacent to - Dampier Nagar which was named after British Collector of that time. The park is also adjacent to the museum which has a very good collection of red sandstone Buddha statues of Mathura school of art, coins, pottery and other artifacts historical significance.
Although its adjacent to Dampier Nagar but in my opinion its "the favorite place" of all Mathurites for morning walks and jogging since time immemorial as people from all corners of the city come here for morning walk, jogging, Yoga etc. As kids we used to play cricket, badminton, volley ball and other sports here in addition to jogging / walking every day. Can see the same continuing today too with the exception of cricket as some modification have been done to the park which haven't left space for cricket now.
Visited the park after about more than 20 years and was happy to see that the upkeep and maintenance is good. Jogging/walking track is paved now. Could notice that couple of old trees were missing but it still has a lot of greenery and a lot of big trees.
Most recent addition to the park are the monkeys which seem to ubiquitous in the city now. Although they did seem to be harmless and minding their own business but monkeys being monkeys are unpredictable and they do sometimes attack people.So if you want to come here for a walk, jog, yoga or just to sit and enjoy greenery and fresh air, its advisable to carry a stick to keep monkeys at bay.
Visiting hours: I think it opens around 6:30 AM. Not sure about closing time. Earlier it was open 24/7 as there was no functional gate and a proper boundary as such. But now there is is gate in fact 3 gates now and a proper boundary wall. So i guess there is a closing time too. Still, advisable to visit only during daylight.
Overall a nice, big, green and lovely park in the heart...
