Must visit for nature’s lover. Lot of birds, trees. 500 m long natural trailFor bird lovers best time to visit is in October when winter migratory birds visit. It has 2 km long trail for birds.The place has cafeteria with fast food snacks and genuine prices.If you want to take lot of photos of birds you need to purchase ticket of 500. Else entry fee is 30

This is awesome place. Please go there early morning only. You can feel real positive energy.

Its a great place to visit. I enjoyed being there. The environment is so good and freshing. Totally loved it.

Good place to take a stroll and enjoy nature that too in the middle of Noida city.... Place is well kept and clean... Path towards the watch tower are off-road and gives you the feeling of being with the nature.

Nice view. Good place for photographers who like to add some birds on their portfolio.

Good place to visit but better if you go at evening time or after 2 PM only because only at that time you will see variety of birds.

Pretty cool place to hangout.... There are just a lot of trees , calm & natural environment...

Absolutely Awesome Place to spend time.Highly Recommended;

This place is just bliss. I have been coming to this place since I was in class 5 with my dad and I have beautiful memories attached to it. Once this place was just another open wetland area but now its an approved Bird Sanctuary. Every inch of this place brings in the wild vibes in me.Best place to learn bird watching and photography of all sorts.

Its absolutely a fine place for nature lovers to visit. Specially in Winter, numerous species of migratory birds come here.Must have a good quality camera with zoom lense and a binocular with you, if you are planning for a visit here.The morning slots are best for photography. The camera fee is slightly on a higher side but the price is worth it.

Very beautiful place in Noida. I visit here once in a year in winters in the month of December. Best time to visit in Nov, Dec and Jan. If you are a photographer or photographing lover, u must visit this place once. There is so many beautiful birds plays around in River. Early morning is the best time to visit. You will get entry at 7 o clock in morning even. So many people come in morning to do morning walk. There is a beautiful wooden bridge. In the last year 2019 government had made so much of improvement for visitors. There is entry charges and for camera there is extra charges.

It was amazing ... I loved that place

Very nice place when you go with your partner

Serene place amidst busy Delhi life

Pollution and noise free, full of greenery, nice place to visit.

Okhla bird sanctuary is best place in city for fresh air sight seeing and relaxation. View is amazing river, greenery, Birds, fresh air. I love this place. Okhla bird sanctuary is the best place for photography, family tour, educational tour. morning is the perfect time to visit.Save tree save water save bird.

When visiting, choose Gate No 2 which is next to DND flyover and is marked as sector 15. It is close to both observation towers (1km approx) and the marsh where you can see most birds. Visit early morning before 10 or evening after 3 to have good views of birds.No arrangement for food, snacks or water, so it is not a picnic spot. You cant carry snacks inside. It is just a place for observation of birds and photography. Kids can have fun running .Gate 1 is close to Kalindi Kunj (sector 95) and you wont be able to see many birds. It is approx 2 km walk from Gate 1 till Gate 2 and can be real challenge for kids and people with less fitness.There are few boats under construction at gate 1, but no one can tell for sure when would they be operational.

Beautiful sanctuary to visit. It’s clean from inside and perfect place for walking & running. Multiple watch towers for bird watchers

This place can be best enjoyed in winter mornings. I would suggest you to go from Gate No. 2 as the bird watching tower is near from this gate. Also, there is bridge connecting two island, which in itself is beautiful. The maximum activity of birds can be seen before sunrise.Parking Facility- One can park their car outside the gate. Parking here is free.Entry Fee- The entry fee here is Rs. 30/- per person.Camera Fee- They charge heavily for camera (Rs.500/-) but phone is allowed so one can click from phone camera without paying any fee.Nearest Metro- Okhla Bird Sanctuary is nearest metro station but it will take you to gate no 1 ( Note- I suggested to enter from gate no 2)

Best for morning walk. you will definitely find peace there. if u are a bird guy, binoculars is a must. there are 2 watch towers, but that is in between swamps, and a kuccha road goes in there.

Though not a secret of Delhi but not many know about this small bird sanctuary on the banks of lazily flowing Yamuna.Winter heralds arrival of winged beauties here from as far and wide as Tibet, Mongolia and Siberia. Many species of birds arrive here and the sanctuary is a real delight for bird watchers.Plus point: not far away from the city, on Delhi-Noida border, this sanctuary offers ideal introduction to the birding activities.

Good place for wondering with family. But also good for the couple. You can enjoy your whole time with the greatness, its takes around 3 or 4 hours for wondering the whole area, you can get feel good air and atmosphere is also nice.

Good place for bird watching...itll be better if you go lone as most of the birds are very sensitive as they swim/fly away as they hear cracking of wood or leaves

If you are a birds lover or just an enthusiast, this is a good place to explore, spot and learn about birds of Delhi NCR region. Winters are a good time to go birding. On my maiden visit to Ohkla bird sanctuary, I was under the guidance of a bird expert and he helped me spot more than 60 birds. Delhi region has nearly 450 species of birds.Important Info - Gate no. 2 is the side from where I entered. 30 rupees for the entrance fees. 7a.m to 10-11 a.m. is a good time to invest there. Walk around. Go to the watch towers. Carry binoculars and camera if you have.

Effective way to reach it is .....from okhla bird sanctuary metro ...u can see on right side only 500 metre away ....it is not always visible due to trees...so keep it in mind

Nothing to actually see here just trees, bushes, a river, some random birds and a whole lot of emptiness. Although the ticket price was just ₹30 yet I wonder if this even worth that much. We went here to try out our new lenses and camera so that was fine.

Its a hidden gem. I never explored this place even after staying right opposite it. Its a must visit place to rewind away from NCR busy life. Walk to watch tower highly recommended

Very amazing and beautiful place. Highly recommended for day out there.

Good place !! Sitting near river feels like heaven

Great place to be close to nature considering its still in the city. Those who like long walks can enjoy it. Photography is also a delight. You can just sit on the bench and just spoke your self in nature as well.Not much of people know of this place so you wouldnt find it crowded, just some couples some times and few locals some time having lunch. It depends on what time of the day and what day you visit this place. Parking is free and it have entry from two side. Although there is no parking structure.You can have great time alone as well as in company of your friends.

Good place .if you are coming Delhi and plan to visit this sanctuary then please do not come

Its an amazing place to spend winter mornings... Witness the beautiful sunrise as well as flamingos. Vist the sanctuary in the morning around 7:30 to witness the varied species of birds.

Its good there to breathe natural pure oxygen but the path is too long and nothing is there to see except greenery

Wonderful place for birding .Nature becomes more alive when we have large water body around it .In Winters apart from native resident birds ,thousands of migratory birds come here making it birders paradise.Take a walk deep inside the sanctuary and hundreds of varieties birds will come to greet you .They permit you to cycle inside too .Love this place .Sunset is spectacular here .

Greenpeaceful& CleanThese are the perfect 3 word to define this place.Must visit this place once.

Good place to visit if u r looking for peace and fresh breathe.... Best time to visit is at sunrise in morning....

Wonderful place to visit with friends to see some unseen birds. Best time to visit is during early winters and spring season. Stand up on the machaan and see the Yamuna river and beautiful birds on India. Two gates 1& 2 .

Nice place full of nature🌿🍃

Beautiful and scenic place. Very peaceful but not well maintained. Poorly maintained place. And the main problem of this place is high tension wire, which passes through the sanctuary. Due to this high voltage current wire most of the birds usually avoid this place. Very very dangerous place in monsoon season due to this wire.

What an excellent location. Extremely peaceful and serene. Must visit for family

Did you know that there is a proper marshland off Noida? Its the Okhla Bird Sanctuary that is home to about 200 species if migratory birds from autumn to winter. Once inside we were almost transported to scenes from Africa. Ornithologist Mr. Singh took us on a bird walk inside the sanctuary and showed us many species. It made walking up early on a winter morning so worthwhile!

Okhla Bird sanctuary Noida, a worthy place to take a morning walk in comforting weather.

Due to pollution in Delhi NCR you will not able to see clear in the sanctuary

A quiet and serene place. Great for morning walks and picnics with family and friends with a view of nature. It is advised to come early in the morning with bicycles and DSLRs if you are fond of photography and birds.

Good to spend time and for photography of birds. There two entrance gates one from Okhla Bird sanctuary metro station or kalindi kunj metro station and another from Noida Delhi DND flyover. Entry fee is 30RS for indian .

This place very beautiful in NCR because there is a river, Greenery, birds and fresh air. You can also do cycling, running, yoga and photography in the early morning is a perfect time to visit here.

Morning 6:30 onwards and evening 4:30 onwards are ideal for watching birds. Carry your binoculars to see amazing birds here, water birds are amazing. Visit here in winter to see migratory birds too.

Awesome place, here you can indulge with nature, fresh air, noise of birds so awesome, love it👌😊

Beautiful place in Noida..take a morning walk..Few tips...Enter from Gate 1 and return from Gate 1 only..Carry drinking water..Maintain silence.

Take your weekend walk here and it will be one to remember. Greenery all arounds. You do not feel that you are in the middle of a city

Very peaceful place, entry ticket 30 rs, entry from multiple areas once nearby noida starting of toll bridge and one on kalindi road to noida entry aftr crossing the bridge

Nice place for nature lovers to spend day from City busy life.

Amazing place. THE PLACE to go in Noida ,if you love nature. Birds, natural views , trees ,tall reeds ....I got lost over here in amazement

You need to be a frequent visitor and now the place in and out to find exact location of birds. Its great that Delhi still has places like these in the Middest of pollution. It is geeta relief for a natural walk but if u r going there in search of birds you need to definitely make it a habit and visit the place quite often.

Its very peacefull place amidst all chaos of delhi-ncr there are lots of birds in winter season due to migration but in other seasons number of birds are less but still this place has a calming effect which is very rare on any other place in delhi.

Best place for peace of the mind. A peaceful place with lots birds and greenery. In the city like Delhi if want to relax and enjoy the nature you should visit this place.. also good for a walk.

On a summer day. A small feel of Bhartapur.

Since morning we saw only 2-3 bird species only ...for more info follow me on Instagram ©viewfromhemant

Good place if you a nature enthusiast. If you are a photographer, then you must visit this place. Very nice and peaceful. You will get to see alot of migratory birds here along with the information on several places. They also have those watch places where you can go with your camera and get some breath taking shots!

The Okhla bird sanctuary, located at the Gautam Budh Nagar district of Noida, Uttar Pradesh, on the banks of the Yamuna River bordering the aforementioned state with New Delhi, is a renowned wetland bird sanctuary developed due to the creation of the Okhla Barrage on the river by the British government long back in the year 1874. About 320 different species of birds can be spotted at this location around the year, but majority of the birds found here are the waterbirds. 🦆Although extensive and ceaseless pollution in the river has formed danger in front of these creatures, they can be spotted in hundreds roaming afloat on the lake and marshlands, especially during the early morning session. A good number of land birds and squirrels have also made this well-maintained park a blissful one to spend time inside! 🐿The worst thing about this place is the extensive charge they seek from the visitors, especially the foreigners. Indian residents need to pay Rs. 30 per head to get an entry here, and for each occupancy of DSLR, they charge Rs. 500 per camera, which is outrageous. They accept only cash payment, leaving it difficult for the foreigners for whom the ticket slab is already multiplied. There does not exist even a proper ticket counter here.

Only name has bird sanctuary, bird their are no to little birds.

Beautiful place... peace... birds.. nature... love the place..

This place is an absolute bliss for nature lovers specially in winter mornings when you can easily watch many beautiful water birds and some migratory birds as well....but due to nearby construction and increased urbanisation,you may spot a little less numner of birds.Its better to come in small groups as the place is very quiet and lonely.You can easily spot variety of plants and trees also.Once a visit is a must as this place makes us realise the value of nature.If you want to visit the whole sanctuary,the whole day would be consumed easily.....but it is worth the visit:)

Excellent for a quiet getaway within the city. Has a splendid variety of birds. Few things to keep in mind. If going bird watching, you shall need atleast a 10x25 binoculars or a camera with atleast 300mm lens. Early morning is the best time to visit. Carry enough water and food in your bag and the experience is always full of smiles

Awesome place for nature lovers....

The Okhla Bird Sanctuary (OBS) is roughly 4 square kilometres in size and is situated at the entrance of NOIDA in Gautam Budh Nagar district of Uttar Pradesh. It is situated at a point where river Yamuna enters in the state of Uttar Pradesh leaving the territory of Delhi. It is one among 15 bird sanctuaries in the state.

Go with a pair of binoculars or monoculars. And an app or book to identify the birds.

😍😍 its an awesome place if u get tired of ur daily life nd wanna have some peace in nature 😍 theres no rush barely peoples visit here 😍 maybe they dont know about this place but u will get peace here nd its so relaxing.

It is the worst place 😪ever, you see in your life. Instead of it, it was better to visit any village near river to see its flora and fauna. I was disappointed to visit the Okhla bird sanctuary, really wasted my visiting money 💰.

Place is batutiful

Nice place.. clean and silentCycling are allowedNo place for snacks

A sanctuary of peace and tranquility for birds and humans alike.

What an amazing place it is. Paradise for birders . Must visit place.for young once, kids and others too.

Nice place. Try to reach early in the morning to spot birds.

Oasis in middle of New Delhi & Noida. Victim of urbanization. My point is save whatever left. Let the environmentalist & experts think how to save this oasis. After 7.00 AM Rs 30 ticket. Go there in winters.During summer best place for morning walkers air quality is better than Lodi garden. Plenty parking at gate no. 2. which is opposite sector 15 Noida.

Would have been so much better without the irresponsible crowd visiting it.

Good for Bird watching and learning about our mother nature. Dont forget to take binoculars.

Calm and serene place, dont forget your camera/dslr when visiting this place, who knows what you may find!

Good placeIn summer go early morningAnd in winter antime is good

Away from the city nice place for photography.. actually you wont such place in Delhi NCR ... So if you want some peace from regular traffic full life go their

A long road stretching from one end to another. Covered with tall lush green trees on both sides. Few birds reside on these trees but most of them are seen having fun in water. A small pond has been made from river yamuna flowing nearby.Temperature is usully two or three degrees lower than that of surrounding areas..Cons: Washroom & teastalls are unavailable so be carefull.

Beautiful side of noida,peaceful place you should visit once...birds are rarely found over here.Camera is not allowed but you can use it if theres no one looking for it.

Good for photographers it has watch towers and stuff great place to visit

A best ever place for Noida & Greater Noida living people. I gives you a feel close to nature. You can see various kinds of birds, insects & many more living beings.Summer or A sunny day with best visibility will be a great day to visit here. In Winters, due to greenery...Fog can ruin your trip.I hope my review will help you. Thank you ☺️

Wort experienceHad nothing to dodid not c a single bird

A great adventure place for travellers,Bird lover ,photographer and nature lovers.

Good place for watching Birds.

We couldnt see any birds its just a usual lake. I think guide might have helped.There was no drinking water + toilets were filthy (no place to wash hands either)Instead we could see buffaloes + cows + goats.They should install few binoculars and accessible watch towers - or just shut down place for common public.

Natural beauty in the midst of city life. Quite for short break from crowd and to spend sometime in peace.

Awesome place for bird photography .

Go between dec-feb... Or dont go... Nothings there apart from those months

You cannot find it interesting, as no migrated birds seen so far. Totally a waste of time. You will just walk for a mile or two, but you will find nothing.

It was a peaceful place. I am not sure about security, It was too lonely. But I liked it very much. Now a days due to Corona its is closed. Tickets are not sold now a days.Its an excellent place for morning walk N run. Many morning activities are being organized here. And Near by sector residents come here for morning walk.

Peaceful clean place ..not much to see if u r not a bird lover ...not a picnic stop ..not shops or facilities even for water ..

Nice place for Peace and natural things .best for family visit

Nice place for walking, bird watching. Very peaceful in mornings.

The #best #way to #explore the #Sanctuary is on #foot as u would find a #different #aura in this spot with loads of #greenery the #birds as well or else u can hire a #bicycle from nearby the #metro station named #OkhlaBirdSenctuary.

Good landscape , govt did some great effort in preserving it but some cons are managing the property , parking is free but they wont open doors unless you pay

Place is good for photography..,one find true natural peace here..,Good weather conditions added one more plus point.

I wanted to feel peace and to see the river side and the Okhla Bird Sanctuary is so convenient and close to the reach of Metro. I enjoyed the sound if the water and ducks. Watch Tower is worth to see above ground view in Okhla Bird Sanctuary.
