Photos Of Moti Baug
Junagadh, Gujarat, India
History and Founding: Moti Baug (Moti Garden) is a beautiful, expansive botanical garden located within the campus of the Junagadh Agricultural University (JAU). Its history is closely tied to the ruling family of Junagadh. It was established by Nawab Muhammad Mahabat Khanji III in the late 19th or early 20th century. The garden is historically significant because it was named in memory of the Nawab's beloved pet dog, Moti, demonstrating the personal touch of the rulers in their civic projects.Integration with Agricultural University: In 1960, a substantial part of the original garden was allocated for the establishment of the Junagadh Agricultural College, which later grew into the Junagadh Agricultural University. This integration means that Moti Baug serves a dual purpose: it is a public recreational park and also an essential botanical and research resource for the university's agriculture and botany departments. This gives the park a scientific as well as a historical dimension.Natural Features: The Baug is known for its lush, well-maintained greenery, offering a welcome respite from the city's hustle. It houses a wide variety of flora, including dense groves of Banyan and other large indigenous trees, providing extensive shade. A prominent feature is a lake or pond, sometimes referred to as Pari Talav (Fairy Pond) by locals, which adds to the serene, surreal view of the garden, attracting local birdlife and providing a tranquil setting for visitors.Current Use: Today, Moti Baug is a central hub for the local community's health and leisure activities. It is exceptionally popular among locals for morning and evening walks, jogging, and light exercise. It also serves as a favorite family picnic spot, especially on weekends, due to its peaceful environment, ample green space, and designated recreational areas.
