What is Lumbini Park known for?
Lumbini Park is an urban recreational park beside Hussain Sagar Lake, opposite the Secretariat New Gate in Khairtabad. Its combination of gardens, lake views, food stalls, boating and a children’s play area makes it the clearest choice among these parks for a visit that includes several activities.
Telangana Tourism gives Lumbini Park’s hours as 9:00 AM–9:00 PM and entry prices as ₹20 for adults and ₹10 for children. The park offers boat rides to the Buddha statue in the lake, including motorboats and speedboats. Hours, fares and boat services can change, so check the official site before you go.
Lumbini Park was inaugurated in 1994 by Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. T. Rama Rao. Hussain Sagar’s lakefront and Tank Bund are part of the same wider outing; the Hussain Sagar waterfront adds more context to the setting.
