The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) will open a new Adventure Thrill Park on the premises of Peshwe Park near Parvati by the end of the month. The park, first of its kind, shall introduce a total of 300 adventure games for children between the age group of three to 12 years. Neelesh Nikam, former municipal standing committee chairman, had passed the resolution for such a unique park two years ago. "This is probably the first adventure park in the country," he said.
