Bryant Park

Bryant Park

Bryant Park, on the eastern front of Kodai Lake, is a picturesque botanical garden that boasts a collection of rare and exotic plants and trees that is almost as old as the hill station itself. In 1908, H. D. Bryant, a forest officer from Madhurai, set up a small park near Kodai Lake. The park, named after him, has now developed into a botanical garden spanning over 20 acres. Managed by the Tamil Nadu Horticulture Department, Bryant Park has over the years become a popular tourist destination and an iconic landmark of Kodaikanal. Home to a wide variety of plants, cacti, and trees that were planted decades ago, Bryant Park is an ideal destination to spend time with your loved ones amidst a serene landscape adorned with the colours and fragrance of countless flowers carefully arranged and maintained. The park boasts a collection of over a thousand different varieties of roses. The entire park turns itself into a carnivalesque atmosphere during the summer months as the flowers bloom in vibrant hues. The glasshouse is a unique feature of the park that houses a wide variety of exotic plants.
