Extending from just beyond Humayun's Tomb and the Humayun's Tomb Heritage Museum, Sunder Nursery (sundernursery.org; ₹200) was fairly overgrown until recent renovations brought this 36-hectare expanse Mughal gardens back to something approaching their former glory. It’s now a vast landscaped heritage park with clipped lawns, delicate waterways and a network of paths dotted with fruit trees, flower beds, tree-shaded benches and numerous Mughal tombs and pavilions plus a lotus pond that's itself shaped like a lotus.
The central pathway has been created upon the line of the Mughal-era Grand Trunk Road and leads all the way from the entrance to the water gardens at the border with Delhi's zoo. Some structures in the garden still lie in a state of ruin; others have been lovingly restored.
There are loads of events, including an organic farmers market on Sunday morning, bee workshops, heritage and nature walks, and performances for kids.
