Established in the early 20th century to propagate plants for the city of New Delhi, the Central Public Works Department owned Sunder Nursery stands on 67 acres of land. It abuts Humayun’s Tomb World Heritage Site and the 12 acre Batashewala complex – both in the care of the Archaeological Survey of India. Since 2007, the Aga Khan Trust for Culture has partnered with CPWD and ASI to create a unique city park spread across 90 acres.
