Morning walk at Chittaranjan Vatika
One of the reasons I prefer walking at Chittaranjan Vatika is the fact that it has still retained fair amount of walking tracks which have soil. It is not totally paved with roads and concrete. While the walking track at Pune university was a favourite till recently, it was quite a disappointment to see that the entire walking track has now been converted to a paved one with no soil track.
Chittaranjan Vatika has these little corners and spaces which have their own character and offer you the moments when you could be yourself. A morning visit in December was wonderful with chill in the air, nice warm rays of the morning sun and to see energetic kids playing and enjoying.
Last two years have not been good for morning walkers especially for those who prefer walking in the municipal gardens. Hope that we are at the end of this terrible phase of Covid and all of us can enjoy our morning walks.
