Manyawar Shri Kanshiram Ji Green Eco Garden, Public ecological park in Lucknow, India.
Manyawar Shri Kanshiram Ji Green Eco Garden is a public park in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, laid out with walking paths, open lawns, and a variety of trees and plants. The grounds are divided into sections, some open and sunny, others shaded by tree cover with benches along the paths.
The park was established as a memorial to Kanshi Ram, a leader who advocated for the rights of marginalized communities in India and founded the Bahujan Samaj Party. It was built with political backing and officially opened to honor his legacy after his passing in 2006.
The park is named after Kanshi Ram, a figure closely associated with the Bahujan movement, and this connection shapes how many locals relate to the space. Visitors often see groups gathered near the monument areas, treating the grounds as a place of respect as much as leisure.
The park is best visited in the early morning or late afternoon, when the temperature is cooler and the paths are less crowded. Restrooms and food stalls are available on the grounds, and the main paths are easy to walk on.
Just beside the park stands the Baudh Vihar Shanti Upvan, featuring a large white marble Buddha statue that rises above the surrounding greenery. The adjacent grounds also include dedicated meditation spaces, making this corner of the site feel noticeably different from the rest of the park.
