Seven Wonders Park, Kota
The seven wonders park in Kota has replicas of the seven wonders of the world.
Taj Mahal certainly got my attention - the main reason for that is that it is the only 'wonder' from India, but then I had never expected to see a Taj Mahal with a 'Nazar Battu' (an evil eye warder), as is seen in the pictures below.
Colosseum (Coliseum?)
Pyramids of Giza
Statue of (The?) Liberty.
The description uses the phrase 'it's assembly here in the United states' - a case of copying without using brains?
Leaning Tower of Pisa
Eiffel Tower
Christ, The Redeemer
The not-so-beautiful view on the right of the park. Reminds me of the Lake Palace of Udaipur... in a sad, disappointing way.
The beauty of the Seven Wonders Park, Kota as the sun sets and the lights are lit.
There are signs of ill-maintenance at many places in the park already, whether it is a loose tile on the path or a slightly rusted bench.
The park is certainly not advertised enough on the internet, and it was not on the to-visit-places list of our tour guide in Kota.
Hoping against hope for better maintenance of the Seven Wonders Park... till the next blog, I sign off :)
Nice post with wonderful images :)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot :)
Deleteall the seven wonders are at one place ? amazing
ReplyDeleteYes it is amazing. I have actually been to another place like this before - Window of the world in Shenzhen, China. It has many more famous structures.
DeleteGood idea of 7wonders in one place..... Hoping for the betterment of the park!!
ReplyDeleteSame here. Hope it is as good, if not better, whenever I next get to go there :)
DeleteMaintenance?This park has on;y just opened,i wonder what the state will be after a couple of years.I can say this because i live in Kota--you are very observant Nimi.
ReplyDeleteThanks Indu. I try to be observant, when travelling, so that I have enough to write, and especially so that I have lots of photographs to share.
DeleteI know the park has just opened, that is why it is more disappointing that small signs of lack of care are already showing.
Hoping for the best. Since you live there, do tell me how the park is, whenever you visit it. :)
