Thank you so much @RosyKohli madam for your valuable response.

When one thinks of Nagpur, Deeksha Bhoomi is the first place that comes to mind.

After looking at your photos, it is clear that there is so much to see and experience at this place.

All photos are very nicely captured that rivals the quality of a professional.

You truly are an accomplished photographer besides being a good writer and enthusiastic traveler @Rohan10

The accessibility features are superb given that this is not a truly modern place nor was built recently.

Great accessibility recap… wondering what would be your next stop? :blush:

You are very kind and true supporter dear @TusharSuradkar . By your comments i always get booster energy to write more and more and feels very exciting. Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I am so glad to have wonderful reply and feeling happy that you liked it. Thank you again buddy.

Nice one - many great photos with accessibility details @Rohan10 We have similar building but it is the cultural centre​ or venue. Google map is here but because it is located in the wrong location (too busy and very closed to the busiest market), it lose attractions and people stop going there anymore.
