Mahatma Gandhi Park

Mahatma Gandhi Park is a rectangular public space in central Kollam with landscaped gardens featuring native trees, flowering plants, and paved walking paths. The grounds include seating areas and designated recreational zones throughout the grounds.

The park was created as a tribute to Mahatma Gandhi, who led India's independence movement through non-violent resistance. It stands as a lasting memorial to his influence on the nation.

The park serves as a community gathering place and hosts environmental awareness events that reflect the traditions of the region.

The park is centrally located in Kollam with multiple entry points for easy access from different directions. It is open daily without admission fees and offers benches throughout for comfortable walking and rest.

A prominent statue of Gandhi marks the entrance and immediately greets visitors entering the grounds. Its location near the Arabian Sea creates favorable weather conditions that allow diverse plant species to thrive in unexpected ways.
