I LOVE SURAT

What a Day ....... What better to Celebrate Valentines Day then to give back to the city that you love. The Dumas Langar stretch project was finally swung open for the people, in true sense लोकार्पण at a befitting day.
A vibrant place with intriguing installations depicting the coastal life and celebration spirit of Dumas-Surat, A must visit for all Surtis.

Urban Art Installations - Dumas
A very important aspect of any urban design project is the public art work, the project of Dumas central pedestrian spine is dotted with some astonishing sculpture designs done in-house by Ar. Prakruti Desai and thus creating interesting pause points for public to ponder.
