@DanniS Good to know that you like the post on Palmetum Park, yes I live in the same city where the park is located.Every plant is tagged with plant name and their basic details.
Beyond witnessing plenty of different palm trees in one place visitors can find brief information on Palm varieties in the form of hoardings which helps to understand the botanical name and more detailed info. Some images of hoardings… Its a very small park with walking track and doesn’t have any other facilities for kids like play area. Hope I have answered your query.
@DanniS It is popular among the local community for morning and evening walks, the park attracts very few tourists from outside as it is small in size and has timing restriction. But Hyderabad city is coming up with urban parks all over the city to attract more tourists.
