Owing to the innumerable number of Lotus flowers in it, Lotus Pond was named the same. However, not many lotuses can be seen now in the pond.

With a beautiful path into the greenery and a revitalizing pond, Lotus Pond is sure to refresh your mind. However, its present condition is not up to the mark which does require restoration at some of its parts.
The best to visit this place is during the monsoon season. During Summer you might not be able to spot many flowers. You can visit this place throughout the week. The timings of Lotus Pond are from 6am to10 am and in evenings from 4pm to 6pm. Although it is open in evenings, it is better to go there in morning, especially early morning, for an exclusively delightful experience. Also due to insufficient lighting, it is better to visit the park in daylight. No entry fee is charged at Lotus Pond. There is ample of parking space outside the park for both four and two wheeler vehicles. If you are commuting thought public transport then you can take a local train (mmts) till Begumpet Station and again a bus from there till LV Prasad Eye Hospital bus stop.

3 starsLotus Pond is in Jubilee hills, the pond is not great, park is better. Lotus pond timings for evening are from 4 to 6-6.30. When I went there was no one there in the park. Little scary but it was nice. It was so peaceful, like I had the entire area for myself. It is a nice place, green and quiet, that too right in the middle of the Hyderabad.

3 starsIt is close to my office so in evening I usually visit there with my friends. It is very peaceful and not crowded so we can just hang out there without any disturbance. But it closes very early which is kind disappointing, wish they leave it open till 8-9 pm at least. There is not much lighting inside which can be fixed off course. Lotus pond timings are from 6am to10 am and then 4pm to 6 pm.

4 starsI often go Lotus Pond, it is located in Banjara hills. I can easily say Lotus Pond is one of the must see places of Hyderabad. It is well maintained and the location is also easily accessible. A peaceful place to sit and watch birds and fish in the pond; once i have gone for morning walk to there, it is very refreshing. It opens at 6 in morning and closes by 10 so not for late morning people!

4 starsLotus Pond is well maintained, and good location too. I have seen many people going there for morning and evening walks. It actually a very refreshing experience to walk on those pathways, with greenery all around you. It is very peaceful. Go to lotus Pond, walk for sometimes and then admire the beauty of sunrise. Perfect start for your day.

4 starsI accidentally went to Lotus Pond, without any planning, it was pleasant surprise. Ample of green space, with many trees, there are boards on every tree with its name and details. There is nice green path for walking. There were fish in the pond. When I sat there for sometimes, I spotted many birds and butterflies. If you love nature, you must go to lotus pond. There is no entry fee.

2 starsI read many good reviews, so went there to see this place. It is like any other place. It could have been way better, lots of potential to be an awesome park with a beautiful pond, but now it is not even maintained, pond water was unclean. Nothing to see there, it is deserted place with hardly anyone to even ask anything or to ask for help if need arises.
