About this audio guide
This guide to The Garden of Five Senses in Delhi follows architect Pradeep Sachdeva's decision to work with the rocky, tree-studded terrain of Saidul Ajaib village rather than level it, winding spiral paths around the outcrops he refused to remove. It tours the twenty-acre park near Mehrauli, from Mughal-style water channels to the sculpture-filled Neel Bagh and a spinning stainless-steel pinwheel. Look for the solar energy park tucked among the flower terraces.
