Super serene park in the heart of the city. This place is filed with couples. Parking and entry is charged. 25 for entrance, 40 for car parking, but slots are limited. Decently maintained, can be better.

Okayish, could have been a bit larger, felt more like a park rather than a place by horticulture department which claims to preserve endangered plants and all. The entry fees was quite low.Although there are a good number of couples sitting in corners which makes it a bit uncomfortable if you are travelling with children and all.There are a few things to play for children though.

Family can go upto certain points, because all the corners and area are covered by couples, which will be uncomfortable sometimes 🎫 the place is such a peaceful vibe 🧘🏻‍♂️

It is a nice place to visit during the week ends. Beautiful Botanical Garden in the heart of the City, Nr.to Anna Flyover and Opp. American Consulate. It has got small play ground for small children. Full of Greenary. But poorly maintained. Some repairing and relaying of new pipes are carried out in order to restore the Water Fountain running round the Garden. I would recommend all to visit this place செம்மொழி பூங்கா and enjoy the Cool breeze and Greenary.

Well maintained and neat park to visit. It is not generally crowed. For bike parking they charge 15 rupee and for adult entry they charge 25 and for kids 10 rupee. Also there is aavin store inside the park if you want to have something

The park size is small but its have lot of trees inside it and a good ambiance

Best initiative by the govt of Tamil nadu is to create a botanical garden like this in the middle of the city. Best place to visit at all times. But after dark couples are crossing the limits.

It was dry , humid and with no maintenance. The place was long and nothing special about it. The walking pathway created was well constructed and maybe looked good for running ; its just a long ground with a park , trees and cafeteria. Costs about 25 per person which seemed unnecessary for the simple visit. With the long area maybe it could be better for filming and walking. Good luck finding more ways to use this place than that.

Nothing special just an ordinary green park. It should be free, but its Rs25/- chargeable. Not a good place for families and kids, because in this park couples are sitting in corners and hugging each other. Authorities should restrict them from doing all these to make it comfortable for kids and families.

Entry fee: 25 rs per person.2 wheeler parking charge 15 rs.It is like somethingh else not chennai. Its small botanical garden. Cool, green, calm place. You can sit and enjoy the cool wind and birds sound.

Its nice to see dense vegetation in the middle of the city. Has a good walking circuit. Good spot for a photoshoot. The plant/trees are well maintained. They have parking spots for both 2&4 wheelers. Definitely worth an evening visit with kids.The play area is rusting, some even broken. Clearly they have used substandard products for play area setup by putting together a play area with different parts which are not meant for the play area. Why dont they buy play gyms specifically built for play areas which can withstand the Chennai weather for few years. The wooden pillars are now home to termites. Looks to me the management is waiting for all of them to get totally damaged and then they will rebuild with new budget money. There is NO maintenance done on the infrastructure (vegetation is comparatively maintained well)None of the fountains were working and one was with stagnant water where mosquitos were breeding. I am glad they collect an entrance fee of 25 per person, but pls do put them into use.

It is a best place for photo shoots & very wide area for relaxation.there were many trees and good maintenance full greeny area.entrance fee rs 25 for adult and for kids rs 10.

Park is neat and but maintenance can be improved..Kids Park area is available with swings and slides..Can spend couple of hours in morning or evening.Will be hot during day time.

Nice place to spend time with your family and loved ones, moreover has a well maintained kids play area.

Nice place... Lots of trees and plants.. good for walking.. i paid 25 for entry fee and 15 for bike parking... For this price is ok...playing activity for kids available..overall fine park to visit.

25 for adultsthat is little higherparking also you have spend money.everywhere i see couple sitting.i think this park only for couples😂.inside aavin there so icecream and other aavin product available.children playing area good.many plant you can see here other then nothing special. one time visitable place.thanks 🙏

Place is good for Couples.So many defferent types of trees but a few flowers trees and plants

Enjoyed the evening with baby. Had a yummy aavin chocobar icecream and while coming out there was a drizzle which gave a good feel.

Very beautiful place to visit with family and spend among the greenery. But too many couples sitting all around and making it difficult for us to have kids with us.Filled with full of greenery plants & trees amidst in the centre of city.Can spend evening with peace & calm.Small playing arrangements for kids also available.Water musical fountain was not working :-(Need to put some restrictions for young couples roaming..

Its a small park in the middle of the city. Nothing special except some trees and plants inside. Adequately shaded by trees but maintenance needs a lot of improvement, except that the plants are well watered by the sprinklers and some ladies were engaged in cleaning the pathways. The eatery is totally in shambles except an ice cream stall. The childrens’ area is mediocre. There is a public toilet as per Board outside the park- could not locate it though. The entry fee of Rs.25.00 per adult appears quite high.OK for morning walkers and first timers but difficult to recommend.

We gone there with a minimum expectation.Not even satisfied with this too.. Maintenance is very poor. Also Garden is not set orderly.Garden watering system is also bad.during watering whole water is fall on the walkway.Photography is worthless. Also a Huge fee of Rs. 2500 will be charged for professional photography which is totally worthless

Entry fee is 25 rs. Parking 15 rs. Kids are allowed for free. Has amazing large big lovely trees. And some photography spots. Only aavin eater available. Clean but not properly maintained. A family can spend a day of picnic. Evening sprinkler were a blessing for my kid.. He was enjoying the splash.. Lots of water spot but no water.... Hidden jungle in the city

One of the best photogenic places in Chennai with affordable entrance fee is Semmozhi Poonga. If you want to spend 3 hours in single place then you must visit this place. Perfect place for couples, adults and kids as well. I can see lot of lovers 😍😍 too. Visited 2nd time after 4 years. Enjoyed a lot.

Lost its original glory. Lots of renovation and relaying is need of the hour. Parking charges are very high. Inside the garden no food facilities are available.

Very beautiful place to visit with family and spend among the greenery. But too many couples sitting all around and making it difficult for us to have kids with us. It looks more like a couple park than a family park. It will be great if the authorities do something about it. Also 50rs for car parking and 25rs entry per person.

Its under maintenance...Fountain water show not running now...Good place for children and couple...Cool place in summer also

Nice place to hang out with your family and friends, ticket price Rs 25 per person, Good place for photo shoots, children play area is there, Tea and snacks shop is there inside the park. But some couples are crossing their limit in a public place, thats the only reason the family visitors should avoid this place..

Not maintained properly.The park should be clean.The park should have some attractions.We have seen so many good parks in India.This place has lots of Scope for improving in all segments. Look into other parts as benchmarks and Improve. Not worth the ticket money

This place have widespread area covered with numerous varieties of trees and plants but unfortunately there will be more couples who dont even have the basic sense of being in public and they do all private stuffs publicly. This park can be management should take action on these things. Apart from this issue, this is one of the remarkable place in Chennai and good place to hangout during summer

When inaugurated, it was wonderful. Now no proper Maintenance. No light show. No fountain. No flowers. Dirty water logs. Dry grass. Closed canteen.But asusual paid entry, paid parking.Lovers park.Worth ilai.

An amazing place for relaxation and photo shoot. Expected to see water in the ponds But can see lots of couples in bushes and please do update the price of the tickets online. Right now the tickets are 25 for adult 50 for camera with one lens (You should have no change of clothes in your bag)

Worst Maintenance. Needs more attention. Entry ticket of Rs.25 per head for an adult which is totally waste as nothing is left in the park to view and enjoy. Only the entrance is maintained well just to attract the visitors. The ponds in the park are empty without water. Totally not recommended.

Very nice and pleasant place to visit. Here you can find various types of trees and plants from all around the India. They arrange evening show and if you have time please visit this place around 6-7pm in the evening, though the tickets are a little high according to what they have to offer, still its worth a visit place

A very good and peaceful botanical Garden. Food is not allowed inside but you can eat just before going inside(theres a place where u can eat). Its full of greenary. A childrens park is also present. A canteen is also there inside where you can buy whatever you want. Different types of flowers, plants, etc.. Are present here.

செம்மொழி பூங்கா....😇Before I go this Place, lots of people Tell us this is lovers park , but not actually that.I went to the park last week, I had a wonderful experience ☺ lots of family members visited and wonderful flowers 💐 and nice photo shoot spots 😊.Entry fee 25₹Parking bike fee 15₹Thanks so Much have a wonderful experience.

The park was spacious n greeny. It had many trees n the atmosphere was nice. The parking costed ₹.15 and the entry fee for an adult is ₹20. Theres a play area for kids which has slide swing n see-saw. Good place for photoshoots, they charge ₹2000/day if you want to do a professional photoshoot over there. But the only drawback is that it is made as a place for couples. You can see them in every nook n corner. If youre planning to visit this place as family better avoid it.

Nice park. Filled with full of greenery plants & trees amidst in the centre of city.Can spend evening with peace & calm.Small playing arrangements for kids also available.Water musical fountain was not working :-(Need to put some restrictions for young couples roaming..

Plenty of greens. Tender coconut and other munching is readily available. Cheap parking is available. Can spend some time on solace. Afternoon lot of young crowd can be seen.

This is a bootanical garden. There is a lot of greenery available here and you can sit peacefully in the shade of trees and relax yourself. A good place to help you feel good. The plants through are common and not much rare. There is also a pond located inside the park. Warning for singles - please dont go alone if you are single as many couples come here and you might feel a little awkward here 😅 but apart from that this place was so good.

Big area,many kinds of trees are there... there r also childrens play area...nice place for photo shoot....but after rainfall beauty of some area is destroyed.

A great get away from the city life with in the city. Amazing big trees are a feast to watch. Childrens play area also available. Entry ticket Adults 20rs Kids 10Rs. Maintenance is ok but should be improved, water canals were empty and the pond boundaries were seen broken.

Semmozhi Poonga is the first botanical park of Chennai. Boasting of over 500 species of plants, the collection includes herbs and medicinal plants as well. The entire park has been divided into 8 zones with an individual theme. This is one of the most popular parks in Chennai owing to its charm, beauty and bounteous nature.Timings: 10:00 AM - 7:30 PM (all days of the week)Entry Fee: INR 15 for Adults and INR 10 for Children

Well a nice place to spend time with your family and loved ones. The entry fees is Rs. 20 per person as per 18th of September 2021. Parking is also available for two wheeler its Rs. 15 and for four wheeler its Rs. 40.Specifically the place is famous for couples.There is a restaurant inside it. The washrooms are well maintained.I would recommend this place to the people who wants to kill their time in between their short break.

Good place to relax. Has a kids play area. Wish they had maintained it better. After sunset youll get mosquitoes.

A best place inside chennai where youre out of chennai vibes. Calm and peaceful without any disturbances from the outside world. The only drawback is that there are many lovers/couples there which makes the spot non friendly for children

This is the first time i visited chennai. So searched for the places to visit. This was one of them. So went with the family but it was kind of lovers park. Only couples around holding each other. Even when we went to play area which is for kids, is being used by them for fun. No security around to assist.It is good for couples not for family with kids.

Try to visit by weekdays as the park is mostly crowded on weekends and late evenings.Well paved with pavements all over the park.Children play area, fountain(shows in night), little pond, butterfly garden etc,. are good to see.Canteen and aavin boothrestroom facilities are available.Can spend some time of 1-2 hoursentry fee 20rs for adulttwo wheeler 15rs

Semmozhi poonga On this location transportation was good because MTC buses and Metro train available in nearby. Park atmosphere was fantastic. Entrance ticket 20/- for each adults. Childrens entertinment park was good.park maintenance also good. Two Wheeler and four Wheelers parking available in cost of 15 and 40/- in three hours valid. Inside water falls not workingThis place used to house the Legendary Drive in Woodlands hotel. After the lease contract was over the Government of Tamil Nadu took over the land and build this park. Just next to the US Consulate, the ever busy Cathedral and Anna Flyover it provides a break from the noise and pollution. One can definitely spend 2 to 3 hours at peace in this place which is full of trees and shade. Though designed to be a wonderful garden, it lacks maintenance and upkeep thanks to successive changing governments. A nominal entry fee of INR 15 is charged at the entrance. Enough parking space is a welcome thing, which is charged separately. For those who want to visit the place, I suggest going there on weekdays and no-holidays to enjoy the peaceful set up. Of course if someone is near the cathedral road and does not want to spend time in the scotching heat, this is the place to go.

"Semmozhi Poonga" also called lover’s garden 😅(just joking)*entry till 7pm*Nothing but a collection of plants of different species.*entry charge is 20₹/person*your bag will be checked by an old man for DSLR camera (poor guy don’t know i have a better camera in my phone than dslr😜)*childrens have their playing items and they will love it.*chirping sounds help to keep you calm
