Gujarat Develops Urban Green Spaces Through Oxygen Parks and Miyawaki Forests

Oct 22, 2026

Gujarat is expanding urban green spaces through Oxygen Parks and Miyawaki forests, bringing nature closer to city residents. In Rajkot’s Railnagar area, a garden developed by the Rajkot Municipal Corporation has become a popular destination for recreation, exercise and community interaction. Children enjoy the playground, senior citizens relax in the greenery, and residents gather for morning walks and evening activities. Locals appreciate the park’s cleanliness, maintenance and family-friendly facilities. Beyond recreation, urban green spaces contribute to a healthier environment by helping reduce heat and noise pollution while providing habitats for birds and wildlife. These initiatives highlight the importance of accessible green spaces in improving urban life and promoting sustainable, healthier cities through continued maintenance and community participation.
