Introduction
The Mughal Gardens at Rashtrapati Bhavan, now renamed Amrit Udyan, are a blend of Mughal and English landscaping styles. Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, these gardens are an integral part of the Presidential Estate. Open to the public during Udyanotsav in February and March, the gardens feature an array of beautiful flowers, fountains, and manicured lawns. This attraction is celebrated for its meticulously planned sections like the Rectangular Garden, Long Garden, and Circular Garden, which highlight the horticultural diversity of India.
