The murmuring sounds of the fountain, the twittering sounds of the birds, the leafy trees, foliage  and creepers have the power to intoxicate every lover of nature and lessen the fatigue of pedestrian.

From the top of the mountain Sindur ( Subarnagiri) the water of the fountain flows downwards in serpentine move on the stony floor with its gurgling sound and distract the attention of the onlookers. Along with the beautiful and panaromic sight ,one can catch the sight  of peacocks, peahens  and different wild animals and birds in the spot.
