Nehru Park, in the heart of Guwahati opposite Cotton College in the Panbazar area, is a garden park built in 2000 and named after India's first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. Set in an old institutional area with several colleges nearby, the park was originally the site of a church with several cemeteries.
Blessed with a pristine environment and a pleasant atmosphere, Nehru Park boasts of 45 sculptures carved out of concrete depicting various dance forms of the state of Assam. Besides, it has an open air theatre, a rock garden, a charming lawn and a few artificial ponds. The park is thronged by tourists day in and day out owing to its well- maintained lawns, vibrantly blooming flowers and an all- around vitality.
