Lalkuan in Nainital district has developed India's largest aromatic garden, boasting 140 species.
The garden was created on three acres of land by the Uttarakhand Forest Department's research wing.
The project was funded through the Centre's compensatory afforestation scheme (CAMPA).
Lalkuan was chosen as the location for the garden to alleviate the stench caused by the area's paper mills.
