Taken for Granted by Many and Cherished by a Few, the Trees in India’S Capital City Make It Seem Like a Verse from a Ruskin Bond Poem

TexT & phoTographs YD BAR-NESS elhi? Think human traffic and clogged roads, jangled nerves and rampant drivers, and a slice of pollution to top it all off. Like most of us, you appreciate green and quiet places, trees and wildlife.

With a bit of an adventurous streak, you can escape the crowds and noise and find some The giant semal tree near unique natural attractions. Sikander’s Tomb gates, Lodhi Gardens. 66•JetWings•January 2010 NatureTrails When these khirni trees were seedlings perhaps 500 years ago, the Mughals were only just getting established in Delhi. There are not only several remarkable and special trees, but also surprisingly large and peaceful forestlands within the vast, bustling city of Delhi. Treat yourself to a natural adventure within the capital and reconnect for a bit with the wild earth. INTO THE WOODS Delhi was built where a blade of ancient sandstone reaches towards the Yamuna river. Most of this slightly higher area of land is covered by city now, but a handful of large forest areas remain. In the south of the city you can visit sanjay Van for a respite from the relentlessly urban environment. The forest has changed dramatically over the years, especially due to a Mexican acacia tree gone rampant. -
