Janeshwar Mishra Park – A Majestic Urban Retreat in Lucknow

Janeshwar Mishra Park, located in Gomti Nagar, is a jewel in the crown of Lucknow and one of the largest urban parks in Asia, covering a vast area of 376 acres. Inaugurated in 2014 by the Samajwadi Party government, the park is dedicated to the memory of senior politician Janeshwar Mishra, known as the “Chhote Lohia.” It was envisioned as an eco-friendly public space that promotes sustainability, wellness, and community interaction.

Architectural Inspiration

Designed by the School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi, the park draws inspiration from Hyde Park in London, integrating European landscaping with Indian cultural elements. The layout is a mix of open spaces, water bodies, shaded pathways, and modern infrastructure, making it both visually pleasing and functionally rich.

Main Attractions & Features

Upon entry, visitors are welcomed by a grand 25-foot statue of Janeshwar Mishra, crafted by renowned sculptor Edward Breathitt. It stands at the heart of the park as a tribute to his contribution to Indian politics.

2. Artificial Lakes & Boating

Two serene lakes (14 acres and 18 acres) enhance the park’s ecological appeal. These lakes are home to migratory birds during winter and offer boating activities, including gondola rides and paddle boats for a scenic water experience.
