The days are getting longer and nights shorter. Finally, spring is here! It is time to make the most of the pleasant weather in Delhi and other tropical regions too. For spring is short-lived it is best to get most of it. Picnics, outings, and visits to all the places you have been putting off. The sun with a blink of an eye is going to engulf us into its heat.
It has been over about 4-5 months, I visited the Lodhi Gardens in Delhi. It is one of its kind. And now is the best time to visit such a park. Taking a brisk walk by the sides of the lush greenery and colourful flowers is enchanting.
Springtime to me comes as music to the soul, with flowers glooming bright in its seasonal bed-chamber. The spring flowers bring an inner smile, the kind that burns warm and long. Making us feel light and content, with colours illuminating our world after long wintry cold days.
As of the Lodhi garden built in the 15th century, my favourite is a sprawling green park at the heart of the city where once upon a time Delhi rulers’ mausoleums rest surrounded by 90 acres of garden. The impeccable serene green setting and natural beauty echo its rich history. The gardens tranquil ambience, large spread jogging track, indigenous butterflies, birds and trees and flowering plants are what makes this park spring heaven. My love for old edifices, historic museums, forgotten ruins makes this a jewel in the crown.
The breeze in spring brings mild cool air rather than our usual winter chill, making me want to make the most of it before it dissolves into summer. Just exploring as much possible in this jubilant fiesta and storing them as memories for the rest of the year, for the harsh summers in Delhi isn't going to be merciful.
