I have been to the old and now closed Appu Ghar and this year I am considering going to the New Appu Ghar which I am assuming is in Gurugram. As the park is new I am unaware of the entry fees and whether it is just an amusement park or a water park as well. Please, can members provide details of the Appu Ghar Delhi entry fees. These days entry fees on weekends are costlier so please provide entry fee details for weekdays as well as weekends.
Hello, welcome to the forum! What is Appu Ghar in Gurgaon? Appu Ghar (Oysters Beach Park) is one of the newest ventures of the Appu Ghar Group, also known as the International Amusement Limited. The company aims to revive the nostalgia that the residents have for the original Appu Ghar which was once located in Delhi. The original Appu Ghar was India's very first theme park, established in 1984, but was closed in 2008 since the land that it stands on was just leased from the government. Anyway, the new Appu Ghar is now located in Gurgaon and goes by its other name, the Oysters Beach Park. It mainly has wet rides, considered as the best in the Delhi NCR area, and was designed to replicate the atmosphere of a real beach.
