Whether you prefer historical charm, biodiversity, or serene lakeside views, Delhi has a plethora of picnic spots to suit every taste.

Here’s a guide to some of the best spots where residents can bask in the clearer skies and enjoy a breath of fresh cold air.

The rain enhances the charm of this historical site, making it a delightful place for a picnic. Here, one can enjoy a blend of urban sophistication and natural beauty in this popular South Delhi destination.
