I recently visited Sunder Nursery, and honestly, it turned out to be one of the best picnic spots in Delhi. If you’re looking for a peaceful, green, and aesthetic place to spend quality time with family, friends, or your partner – this is highly recommended. The gardens are beautifully maintained, very spacious, and full of greenery. There are heritage-style monuments (makbara-type structures) inside the nursery that are perfect for aesthetic photography. The flowers and landscape design make the entire place look vibrant and refreshing. One of the best parts – outside food is allowed, so you can bring your own snacks, blanket, and enjoy a proper picnic without any restrictions. No one disturbs or irritates you, and the overall environment is calm and well-managed. The staff is polite and professional – no rude behavior at all. 🎟 Entry & Ticket Information: Entry fee: ₹50 per person Open all 7 days a week Parking facility available Cash & UPI both accepted Another great thing is that Sunder Nursery, Humayun’s Tomb, and Humayun Museum are located close to each other, and you can buy tickets for all three from one counter. If you purchase combined tickets, you even get a small discount (around ₹40–₹50), which is a good deal. 🚇 Nearest Metro: Nearest metro station is JLN Stadium Metro Station. From there: E-rickshaw costs around ₹30 per person (good option for big families). If you’re a couple or going with friends, I’d personally recommend walking – it’s around 15–20 minutes and feels nice. Just be careful while crossing the road at a couple of points. Overall, it was a very good experience. Next time, I’ll definitely go fully prepared with food and a proper picnic setup (we initially thought outside food might not be allowed, but it actually is!). If you’re planning a peaceful outing in Delhi, Sunder Nursery is absolutely worth visiting.

Nice garden with multiple type of natural trees, plants, flowers, ponds, old monuments, and Museum. Plants, saplings, seeds are available for sale. Enjoy Pure authentic home cooked or freshly cooked food. Purchase Organic Vegetables and Fruits. Fruits and Vegetables are bit on higher side as they are pure without any pesticides or chemicals.

There might be dew on the grass so bring Floor mat/rug etc. Visit early morning before the rush. Have fresh air. Healthy Breakfast or Brunch enjoy reading the books etc in peace watch different varieties of flowers, hear different sound of birds or feel the water flowing through fountains and other different water bodies.

A perfect place for picnic with family and friends. You can also enjoy a walk throughout this place. Well maintained flower beds and cleanliness is also maintained. I highly recommend you to visit this place during Spring season. Dogs and Cats are allowed.

Originally a 16th-century Mughal garden known as Azim Bagh, the site was transformed by the British in 1913 into a nursery to grow exotic plants for the construction of New Delhi. ​Located adjacent to Humayun’s Tomb, the 90-acre heritage park contains fifteen Mughal-era monuments, including the Sundar Wala Mahal. Between 2007 and 2018, it underwent a massive restoration by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture, evolving from a functional nursery into Delhi's first botanical "Central Park," blending ecological biodiversity with restored historic architecture.

A huge open space in the heart of Delhi. Full of trees and greenery acting as the lung(s) of Delhi. Often some or the other programme is organised for children so that they enjoy the outing. While you may sight migratory birds only if you are lucky, peacocks, peahens, squirrels etc abound and are easily spotted. A great place to visit on summer evenings and winter afternoons. Carry tea, packed food, a durrie and have a family picnic. And while there you could try the Carnatic Cafe and the items served at Zaika - e - Nizammudin ( a cart serving food prepared by the women from the area of Nizamuddin.

Sunder Nursery seems to have become perfect replacement for India Gate as a family picnic spot. The area is spacious and well mentained and far away from the main roads so kids and adults can walk and run around without worrying about being run over by vehicles. The entry fees of Rs 50 seems nominal but required to keep the upkeep of the park and also to keep ill elements out. The nursary is also in close proximity to Humayun Tomb and Museum to plan for a full day visit with the family and with eateries easily accessible in the Sundar Nursery area it self, even people who are not planning for picnic have easy access to food items. Sunder Nursery also has a amphitheatre and chaupal area available for booking and one can also use the same for small gathering or hosting a group play or musical gathering.
