Other Places
Park with benefits….
• This walking park not only provides facilities for physical fitness but also for mental fitness.
• It has some rules and regulations that are to be followed . They are given in the picture on the right .
The Celestial Plaza and the Zodiac Walk are facilities that provide mental peace for the
visitors who come to this park .
The CELESTIAL PLAZA is a
‘symbolic’ representation of SPACE
and the SOLAR SYSTEM floating in
it. The positions of these elements
either influence or correlate with
people’s personality traits, important
events in their lives, physical
characteristics, and to some extent
their destiny. The next phase in this
movement sequence is the ZODIAC
WALK.
