When I was an expat, I visited the parks in India.
The Lodi Gardens in New Delhi covers approximately 90 acres. In addition to the usual gardens and ponds, there are historical structures in the park- a couple of 15th-16th century tombs and a wall from a fort. This adds an interesting dimension.
Unlike the Bangalore parks that are closed in the middle of the day and are filled with litter, people enjoy this picturesque place. Young people play team sports and individuals throw frisbees to dogs on the grass.
In Bangalore, people were prohibited from walking on the grass. The sign clearly states what is expected in the park.
