Science City saw around 25,000 visitors, compared to 30,000 last year, while the Victoria Memorial had about 36,000, slightly lower than last year’s 38,000. Maidan and Eco Park were crowded but not as packed as they usually are on the first day of the year. For those who braved the cold, Eco Park was the destination of choice. Eco Park offers plenty of open space, especially for children. From tomorrow, the usual routine will resume.”Traffic to Eco Park, usually gridlocked on January 1, was relatively lighter this year.
