Pu Thi Narasimhachar Park, locally known as P.T. Narasimhachar Park, is a prominent urban green space situated in the 5th Block of Jayanagar, Bengaluru. It serves as a vital recreational hub for residents, featuring paved walkways, mature trees, and dedicated exercise zones. The park is named after P.T. Narasimhachar, a renowned Kannada poet and playwright. It functions as a neighborhood lung space, providing a quiet retreat from the density of surrounding commercial areas. The layout integrates shaded benches and structured landscaping to accommodate both walkers and social groups. The park is managed by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) as part of its network of public neighborhood parks.
The central pathways lined with mature trees provide the most balanced lighting and green backdrop.

Visit during the early morning or late afternoon to avoid peak heat, as midday sun exposure is significant.

Avoid visiting during the peak heat of the afternoon; do not feed stray animals often found near the park periphery.
