‘Green Paradise’ made of garbage heap: This unique park of Noida becomes a new example of water conservation and beauty.

Have you ever thought that a smelly area strewn with garbage can be turned into the most beautiful ‘eco-park’ of the city? Today, this park located in Sector-91 of Noida has become an identity of the city, which is not only a paradise of greenery but is also presenting a wonderful example of water conservation. This place, once surrounded by heaps of garbage, has today become a safe haven for thousands of trees, plants and wildlife, seeing which a new ray of inspiration has arisen for other areas of the city as well. Garbage to Kanchan: Rejuvenating the Garbage Mountain There was a time when only heaps of dirt and garbage were visible in this area, but the hard work of the local administration and environment lovers has completely changed it. Here, along with scientific disposal of waste, the fertility of the soil was returned. Today, due to intensive plantation, a small forest has developed here, which has become a center of pure oxygen amidst the increasing pollution of the city. People come here for a walk in the morning and evening and feel the purity of the environment. Unique technology of water conservation: The biggest achievement of this park is its ‘Water Harvesting’ system. Special arrangements have been made here to prevent rain water from getting wasted. The ponds and drainage arrangements around the park have been made in such a way that the water seeps underground and recharges the ground water level. This is not only helping in removing the water shortage in the surrounding areas, but is also proving helpful in keeping the plants alive in the scorching heat. This model for environmental protection can become a case study for the entire country. Apart from the greenery and water conservation in this park, there is another special attraction which fascinates children and adults – the rabbit colony here! Seeing rabbits roaming freely and frolicking in special areas of the park is no less than an adventure. The habitat of these tiny creatures in the natural environment proves that if we save nature, it returns us double. This park is now not only a picnic spot but has also become a major eco-tourism destination of Noida.
