OKHLA BIRD SANCTUARY REVIEWS
Away from the hustle and bustle of the city on the bank of Yamuna lies Okhla Bird sanctuary. Being right inside the city one feels distant from it. With pleasant breeze from the water, birds chirping around, ducks in the water, flocks of egret flying around for some feast on fishes its a delightful place to stand and gaze. Thanks for not mordernizing the place with so called "entertainments". I often visit this place to be with and learn from nature.
It was worth visiting and had a great time close to nature. You can easily visit though metro. Just get down at okhla bird sanctuary metro and walk for 200 metres from there to main gate. From there you will ticket and can start your peaceful nature walk seeing different species of birds on bank of yamuna river.
A lovely place amid nature. The cafe & then cart makes it an easy walk.. during winters migratory birds are worth a watch. You can also get a glimpse of peacock if lucky!!

Botanic Garden of Indian Republic (BGIR) is a crucial site for conserving endemic and endangered plants outside their natural habitats. Spanning 163.79 acres, it houses over 10,500 individuals belonging to approximately 900 plant species sourced from 23 states across India. These plants are preserved in distinct sections such as economic plants, green belts or woodland, fruit, medicinal plants, cactus and succulents, nurseries, and water bodies. This garden, adorned with a tranquil ambience and rare plant species and flowers, beautifully embodies the essence of Mother Nature. Within its premises, the Seed Bank safeguards the seeds of 269 plant species, including Geodorum appendiculate Griff., unique to Assam and Andaman. Notably, the garden's water bodies host Victoria amazonica (Poepp.) J.C. Sowerby, Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn, and five different Nymphaea L. The garden's plantation and enrichment activities have naturally fostered an environment conducive to the country's native flora, attracting and nurturing diverse fauna species and promoting their proliferation and habitation.

BOTANIC GARDEN OF INDIAN REPUBLIC REVIEWS
Located next to the Botanical Garden metro station, this garden is spread over many acres with lush greenery and a wide variety of native flora in the region. If you are a nature lover, you will definitely love the peace out there; it is, I must say, a nice place to spend your evening. This can be a perfect picnic spot for families, but in the winter, keeping cleanliness in mind, it would be nice to carry your own garbage bag. Summers would be a bit harsh to explore the gardens. You will find several signs to guide you about the gardens designated for specific varieties. The medicinal plant section is well divided and marked for various diseases. Considering the beauty of the gardens, this place is quite underestimated, and I strongly suggest it should be on your to-be-explored list if you are in Noida. The gardens are well maintained, and the staff is cooperative too. I would say that with the support of the government, this garden will definitely attain its objective of securing plant diversity for the well-being of people and the planet. It’s a huge space, and the government should look into this in order to make it a successful project.
Beautiful place for nature lovers. Well maintained garden. Sign boards every where to guide you in various locations of your interest. You find Flowers, herbs, medicinal plants, also a museum. The medicinal plants section is well divided and marked for various diseases.Ideally located Close to Botanical Garden metro rail station and Botanical Garden bus station.
Visited during Flower Shows, lots of flowers like Lili , Daheliya etc. There is very big greenary inside this having lots of trees. Very well maintained. We enjoyed the day here. Parking is available. Free Entry.

SHAHEED SMARAK REVIEWS
It is a war memorial maintained and looked after entirely by retired servicemen from the Army, Navy and Air Force who live in District Gautam Budh Nagar. NOIDA is a premier city of this district. The memorial has inscribed on its Honour Roll the names of 40 Shaheeds from the district who were killed in various wars, post 1947, in defence of the Motherland.The garden surrounding the Cenotaph is glorious to view. It has won the first prize 20 years in a row, at the NOIDA Annual Flower Show, for the best maintained public garden in the district. Rules for entry are laid down by the NOIDA Authority, are prominently displayed in front of the Memorial and are strictly enforced.. There is no entry fee. Visitors are expected to pay homage to the Shaheeds - that is the only activity permitted. There is a beautiful walkway all around on which visitors may walk.
Amazing place loaded with some awesome varieties of cactus, Agave, giant Adenium, Pachypodium and other foliage plants. All plants are beautifully arranged. I am totally in love with the Agave and Cactus Rockery arrangement. Being a cactus and succulents collector, I can confidently say that most of the agave varieties collected from outside India. Settling them in NCR weather conditions is a very difficult task. Got the opportunity to meet respected Colonel Mahendra, who is the man behind these rare plants Rockery. It needs good knowledge and experience to manage such rare plants in NCR weather, thanks to Colonel who has made this possible. Never thought that I will see such beautiful rare plants in the locality.
This is a place opposite Army public school and a very well maintained park by the Defense officers. The park has a jet plane and a naval ship model inside. The place is good for walks . Green carpet of grass is seen which makes the place look very beautiful.
