Chambal Garden, Public garden in Kota, India
Chambal Garden is a public garden in Kota situated along the Chambal River's banks, with numerous pathways bordered by trees, shrubs, and seasonal flower beds throughout the grounds. The site also offers boating activities and features a suspension bridge that crosses a pond inhabited by gharial crocodiles.
The garden area once served as a preferred retreat for Kota's rulers and lies near the historic Amar Niwas royal residence. This royal connection has shaped the character of the place across generations.
The garden became well-known after appearing in the 2017 film Badrinath Ki Dulhania, drawing movie enthusiasts to visit the filming location. Today, the site serves as a connection point for travelers interested in exploring real-world cinema locations.
The garden is open to visitors but offers varying conditions depending on the season, particularly hot weather during certain months. It helps to bring water and visit early in the morning or later in the afternoon for the most comfortable experience.
The garden features an unusual attraction: a suspension bridge over a pond containing actual gharial crocodiles, an endangered reptile species. This close-range viewing opportunity surprises many visitors who would not expect such wildlife in an urban garden setting.
