Solution

Yes, there is a beautiful garden in the colony where I live. It is a huge garden, which opens on four sides. It opens at 5a.m and closes at 8 p.m. There are a lot of attractive trees. In spring season it looks most attractive. Flowers of various kinds and colours are grown. Sometimes I see there rare birds also.

I go there for morning walk and in the evening I go there to play tennis. The garden has a small swimming pool also. There is a great rush of visitors in the morning and evening. A lot of children play there. It is a public park, so we have no fear of any Giant there. On every Sunday, the people do honorary service for the cleanliness and maintenance of the garden. I also go there every sunday to do so.
