At a time when Delhi landfills are overflowing with all sorts of waste, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation {DMRC} has opened a ‘Prakriti’ park, which has some really dandy installations made out of scrap, created by artists from all over the country.

What A Way To Deal With {S}crap!

The DMRC has used all sorts of waste to construct the beautiful structures near the Shastri Park metro station. The idea behind this initiative is to create awareness about upcycling basic waste and making something creative out of it.

The over-flowing landfills of Delhi are a prime example of improper waste management and these installations are a beautiful reminder of that. From iron scraps to discarded sheets, tiles and even old used pipes, 12 sculptures stand strong demonstrating a beautiful way to look at disposable waste.

So We’re Saying…

If you happen to pass through the Shastri Park metro station, stop by and admire the arty-ness of the space. The space is not just installation friendly but environmentally conscious too. According to HT, they have an auditorium, amphitheater, meditation alcove, playground for children, a gymnasium for visitors and a lot of other eco-friendly activities.

A visual treat for the eyes and a vacation for your lungs, this place is a must visit!

An animal person who gorges on food, she loves the little attention the universe gives her. 60's flower child, nothing in life works for her without music. When you don't find her chilling with her streeties, her pug or her cat, she's probably wandering about the city or sitting with a book and/or a movie at home, trying her best to be evasive.
