Mughal Gardens renamed Amrit Udyan: Ticket price, booking process and all you need to know about the British-era garden soon to be open for public soon

The famous Mughal Gardens, which are located in Rashtrapati Bhavan, have been renamed Amrit Udyan to commemorate 75 years of India's independence.

The new name replaces the previous one – Mughal Gardens, which was associated with one of India's longest-reigning dynasties.

Owing to its Mughal architecture, these gardens were given the name "Mughal" earlier. According to reports, Lady Hardinge hired British architect Sir Edward Lutyens to create it.
