Features and Facts:-
Delhi is the national capital territory of India and is regarded as the
heart of the nation. No doubt the city is popular for its enriched
culture and heritage. Several historical monuments, beautiful gardens
etc. are there in the city. Recently, one new theme park also added in
the list of Delhi which is amazing, different and based on a theme
namely 'Waste to Wonder. It was inaugurated by the Home Minister
Rajnath Singh in Rajiv Gandhi Smriti Van.
One of the most important and impressive fact about this park is that
you will see 7 wonders of the world. In fact these 7 wonders of the
world are made up of industrial waste and other waste material like
scrap metal, discarded auto parts, procured from the landfills of the
city. In this way waste material is used into a good form. That is why
this park becomes an attraction point for everyone and yes it is unique
in itself.
 The park looks like a tiny island developed in the congested
surroundings of the Sarai Kale Khan Inter-State Bus Terminus and
Outer Ring Road. It will provide a boost to the 'Swachh Bharat
Abhiyan' and will forge ahead towards transforming waste to
wealth.
 South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) has installed solar trees
and rooftop panels that will generate 50 KW powers. And the
surplus power will be sold to the power distribution companies to
earn revenue.
 Do you know that the park has been constructed within six
month's time? In the development of the park around 150 tons of
scrap, 5 artists, 7 supporting artists, 70 welders and helpers have
been used. According to SDMC the park built at a cost of Rs 7.5Cr.
