Dutch Gardens

The city of Surat always welcomed tourists and travelers. The same can also be said of the migrants that flocked to the city. That is precisely why Gujarat is referred to the city of many cultures. The Dutch were also inhabitants in the city of Surat. The Dutch offers a peak in the rich heritage and culture of the Dutch emigrants to the city of Surat. The silence and the serenity of the Dutch gardens offer a tale of Dutch emigrants that made this part fo Surat their own. The sprawling vegetative cover and the verdant surroundings offer tourists a true sense and warmth.



Another attraction of the gardens is the Dutch Cemetery.    The Dutch cemetery transports visitor back to the former times. The various tombstones with epithets for the dead, takes tourists to the former days of life. Well maintained as it need be the burial ground is peaceful and   instead of invoking fear and panic which is the case with tourists visiting cemeteries it evokes and untold peace and warmth. This destination is a must visit whole on stay in Surat.
