The Government Park or Bharati Park is in the green centre of the French Town and its lush trees provide ample relieve from the scorching sun on a hot summer day. With children playing in ponds, on their hill or in the traffic park, grown-ups sitting or lying on granite benches, families on a picnic and occasional sit-ins of striking citizens, the park is the most appreciated public area in town. Strolling under the cool trees is as dynamic as it gets. Unless people rush to the spot when an occasional movie is being shot.

The Aayi Mandapam has become the unmistakable centre from
which four lanes divide the Park in four almost equal parts.
The area is dotted with ancient sculptures and not so
ancient statues. Around it stand a number of stately
buildings
