The park that I really wanted to visit and write about is the Indira Gandhi Udyan commonly called Appu Ghar which is located in Nigdi, Pune and is possibly among the only amusement parks in the city. We had gone there many years ago. I do remember the ‘Columbus’ which was sort of a mega-swing shaped like a ship. There was also a very tall doll like figure whose skirt had some seating area. This skirt twirled around eliciting squeals of joy or fear.. 🙂
I think the park has many more attractions and ride now. This visit remains on my to-do list. If you have been there, do tell us…
