Gardens of the Viceroy's House
The Gardens of the Viceroy's House are historic, meticulously designed outdoor spaces surrounding the former British Viceroy’s residence in India, now known as Rashtrapati Bhavan. These gardens feature expansive lawns, ornate pathways, water features, and rare plants, created to reflect both Western formal garden styles and Indian horticultural traditions. They served as private retreats and venues for official ceremonies, symbolizing British authority and aesthetic taste during colonial rule. Today, the gardens are part of a significant heritage site, offering visitors a glimpse into colonial-era landscaping and the grandeur of the Viceroy’s residence.
