A public garden called Myamala Garden has been opened in Mandalay City, providing a space for people to relax and enjoy nature. The Myamala Garden, located at the intersection of Theikpan Road and 78th Street, within the Sinphyu Kan area, was developed by the Mandalay City Development Committee’s Parks and Playgrounds Department.
The garden was built in honour of Union Day on 12 February and will continue to serve as a public recreation area. It was developed to accommodate the 21st Fruit and Flower Exhibition and Competition, which will take place over the next two months. A spokesperson for the Mandalay City Development Committee said that the garden will further enhance the beauty of the Sinphyu Kan area, making it a pleasant space for public enjoyment.
The Myamala Garden spans around 680 square feet in length and 110 square feet in width. It includes several flower beds, including a 60-foot-wide flower circle, a 40-foot-wide flower circle, and a 30-foot-wide flower circle, featuring a variety of colourful flowers. The garden also offers seating areas for visitors and plans to improve access roads in and out of the garden.
The garden also features a fruit and vegetable planting area, where local produce is grown. The committee plans to make the garden more beautiful by adding more colourful flowers, ornamental plants, and water features to enhance the visitor experience. The Mandalay City Development Committee is committed to maintaining the city’s cleanliness and aesthetic appeal, ensuring residents can access peaceful spaces like the Mya Mala Garden. — Min Htet Aung (Mandalay Sub-Printing House/KZL
