The ‘Deccan Park’ which was lying unused for the past 15 years close to the Qutub Shahi Tombs and the historic Golconda Fort will be thrown open for public soon. The Aga Khan Trust for Culture (AKTC) has agreed to restore the park and carry out developmental activities. Earlier Developmental works were done by Quli Qutub Shah Urban Development Authority but its opening was delayed due to various reasons and controversies. Developed at a cost of Rs 3 crore the park has a swimming pool, a kitty pool for children, conference hall and a facility for a toy train ride. It is spread over 30 acres which also includes the Eidgah land where Eid prayer is offered every year.
