I recently visited the Green Mall and was blown away by its stunning atmosphere. A natural greenery and beautifully landscaped spaces create a truly remarkable experience. It's a welcome escape from the typical mall environment and offers a refreshing and inviting ambience. Thanks to the vision and dedication of Green Guru Dinesh Rawat, the Green Mall boasts beautiful trees and a stunning overall environment.
Green mall is a great place for plant lovers to start with. I mean the variety of plants spread over a massive area is just delight.. People associated there have a real passion for plants and it’s not just pure business.. The cost of plants are way cheaper than any online sites u can search and the quality of plants is amazing.. Though it took me more than an hour to reach but it was definitely worth it .. A special mention for Mr Rawat who insights are just wonderful to hear!!!! Just a caution please make sure u have sufficient time to visit the place as it took me almost a day including my travel time…
