Sadhanakeri Garden - Park in Dharwad - Dharwad, India

Old and green park around sadhanakeri lake. There's also a statue of D R Bendre ajja. Lines from his song "Baro Sadhanakeri ge" is also embedded below his statue. The washrooms are ok. Entry fees is 10rs for an adult.

Peaceful garden in Dharwad. This garden is made in the memorial of Kannada poet Da Ra Bendre. One can choose this place for picnic with friends and family. There is a lake in the middle of the garden. Boating is also there. But when I visited, the boating was temporarily closed. For kids, toy train, swings, seasaw are there for children's entertainment. One should take a ticket to go inside the garden. The ticket price is 10 Rupees per person. On Sundays evening fountain will be there. The garden is good for photography.

A good place in this locality, pleasant to relax during evening time. I visited this on Saturday and there was no much crowd. A lot to improve in terms of hygiene and cleaning the premises. But i do love to walk in this area, it's calm and peaceful. Please see attached images for more information and details. Pictures taken on 26/02/2022

It was under renovation, when i visited but its good for one time visit or for exercise

At around 10.30 in the morning, with the honking of the buses and the cars, the garden still managed to provide a serene sanctuary for an outing. Also, it is home to several water and land birds of different species. They are absolutely fascinating to watch in their natural habitat. A must visit if you're looking to spend some time with nature in a city!

Sadhankeri Park is situated in the heart of the Dharwad City. The environment of this garden is very cool and calm because of Lake, good greenary and mango trees plantation. Pleasant place, beautiful garden ,Play area and great to take morning walk. There are some artistic statues you find everywhere that add joy to your short stay. One small lake is there adjacent to garden, where boating can be enjoyed with dear ones. Indeed a good place for outing with family and friends. Garden is open 10am to 8pm. Musical fountain show is additional attraction only on Saturday, Sunday and holidays from 7.30 to 8.00 pm. Nice place to spend some good times with kids they can enjoy rides and swings . Entry fee for adult is Rs 10 and Rs 5 for children. Well maintained park with lot of photography options. Excellent experience!!

As per Google timings we went there to see as we travelled so for place,.but at 6 pm they closed gates while seeing our vehicle and told time is over but Google map showing 7.30. May be we won't get chance to visit there once again .I'm really fustrated.

Review is as on March 2021, not maintained at all. 10 rupees charge for elders and 5 for children. Waste of time no activity for children or elders. No food no canteen no shops inside.
