A park has recently opened in the capital of India, New Delhi, which amazes visitors with unusual sculptures – copies of world famous buildings, structures, sculptures, etc., made of metal waste.
More recently, this place was the most common dump scrap metal, and now – a cozy park, and even so original. Here You can see the Statue of Liberty, Taj Mahal, Colosseum, Egyptian pyramids and so on – and all this is done by local artists from the garbage that accumulated over the years in this place without decorating town. Now – a wonderful environmental project, embodied in a life.
Here is what one of the participants of this project artist Zakir Khan:
Any metropolis, and our New Delhi is no exception to this plan, generates a large amount of metal waste, for example, old city cars go to landfills transport. So we decided to make this junk material something really worth it for the city. We were fully supported management of the municipal corporation “South Delhi”, due to which the metropolis not only got rid of one of the scrap landfills, but also acquired a very remarkable park. All this is done in as part of the Pure India campaign launched five years ago. Is our creation in this regard is only one of the projects of this ideas.

Note that the Government of India has marked the 150th anniversary of the birth of Mahatma Gandhi (October 2 this year) rid large cities of the country from street garbage. How successful was this campaign, the results have not yet been announced, but today an open park with magnificent sculptures at the scrap metal dump site in Delhi proves that the efforts of the country’s leadership were not in vain.
By the way, in the park itself, the greatest constructions of the world can be seen beyond five minutes, of course, are copies of some of their most famous masterpieces of world architects and sculptures, with smaller ones, however, their attractiveness does not suffer from this at all, since these peculiar layouts are collected in one place. And wishing look at this another little “wonder of the world” abound.
