Nice and peaceful place . You can sit on one of the bences in the garden and admire this architectural beauty. Wide open area , lakes , cool breeze, trees and vast streaches of grass all around.

After three unsuccessful attempts to reach before the closing time I finally made it today... it is such a beauty! The sprawling green gardens and clear ponds ... not to miss the monument itself!

Built of white marble and architecturally a strange blending of the best of the Taj Mahal in Agra and St Paul's Cathedral in London.
