Dhenkanal Palace Garden

2 km

Attached to the former royal estate about 2 km from Dhenkanal town, this historic landscaped garden has open lawns and paved paths that make it a relaxed, family-friendly outing. October through March is the ideal window, and the garden is easy to reach by vehicle. It's the kind of spot where a slow morning stroll works just as well as a picnic on the grass. A small entry fee applies — see the fast facts for the current rate — and shade, toilets, drinking water, and parking are available.
