Buddha Jayanti Park
Park Park commemorating Buddha with statues and ponds
Buddha Jayanti Park is a public urban park in New Delhi, India, created as a recreational green space within the city. The park includes landscaped gardens and pathways and is used for casual recreation and walking.
Paths, lawns, and planted areas form the main attractions, providing a green respite within the dense urban fabric of Delhi rather than large commercial or cultural facilities. It is used by local residents for walking, jogging, and informal gatherings.
The park was developed as part of urban landscaping and public-space projects in New Delhi and takes its name from a commemorative association with the Buddha. Management is by local municipal authorities who maintain planted areas and pathways.
Located within the National Capital Territory of Delhi, the park sits inside the city and is accessible from surrounding neighborhoods and roads.
