Beautiful Parks in Jalandhar with Images:

Let we have to look at the best parks in Jalandhar.

1. Nikku Park:

The entry fee for this wonderful place is just a meagre two rupees. This makes this park the cheapest mini amusement park in the city! It started out as a beautiful nature park but with time several recreational and thrilling rides were added upon its grounds making it more appealing to the children. It’s an excellent place to go for a Sunday picnic. The rides keep the children busy while you can find a grassy spot and just relax while sitting amidst trees and flower bushes. However Sundays are the rush days so don’t expect to enjoy this serenity with a lot of solitude.
