Delhi got a new heritage landmark in February 2018, as the freshly renovated Sunder Nursery opened its gates to the public. A 16th century heritage park complex right next to the iconic Humayun’s Tomb, it was originally known as Azim Bagh and built by the Mughals in the 16th century. It is located on the Mughal-era Grand Trunk Road, spread over 90 acres.

Today Sunder Nursery contains fifteen heritage monuments of which 6 are UNESCO World Heritage sites, including Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) protected Sundarwala Burj, Sundarwala Mahal and Lakkarwala Burj.

After renovations started in 2007, the nursery reopened to public as a heritage park. Now it contains over 300 types of trees, making it Delhi’s first arboretum. The vast spread area and historic monuments can be an interesting new backdrop for movie locations depending on a prodcuer’s imagination.
