Noida, Dec 23, 2014 –
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday inaugurated Grand Venice tourist destination in Greater Noida. “The Grand Venice tourist destination has given an opportunity to those who could not fly abroad. They can have a feel of Venice in Greater Noida,” Mr. Yadav said while inaugurating the project from his residence here through video conferencing. Further he added, the State Government was committed to provide full cooperation and support for those investing here.

Bhasin Group, one of the most promising and emerging players of NCR has come out with a wonder project ‘Grand Venice’ at the gate of Greater Noida, being 2 mins drive from Pari Chowk. With Grand Venice, Bhasin Group has promised Indian customers a little Italy of its own with the kind of architecture, construction, amenities and services. More than a project, Grand Venice is all set to become a major tourist attraction of the country. The Italian theme and uniqueness in the project; if we are looking for the famous romantic Gondola ride with their beloved to Venice or if we are looking for shopping travel or even if we are looking to take our family to Singapore or Dubai for underwater world then we don’t need to travel anywhere abroad, as Grand Venice has it all.

Sprawling over 11 acres approx., the commercial project is based on an Italian theme with similar style of architecture used where one can find Light Towers, Leaning tower of Pisa and the most attractive and famous ‘Gondola Boat Rides’ on water canals built inside the mall. The mall also has a centralized weather management system to give the same environment of European weather with a digitalized sky with proper surround sound and visual effects. Built in a huge area of 3 million sq. ft., the project also boasts of a strategic location with a 2 minute drive from Pari Chowk, just on the wide main road and promises a 20 mins drive from Noida and 25 mins drive from the capital. The convenience in driving and reduced travel time is due to the excellent connectivity via Mahamaya Expressway. The company has also signed Sheraton Hotel which will serve as an icing on the cake with its 5 star servicing. Another mega attraction of the project will be the India’s largest aquarium (1, 00,000 sq. ft.) and arcade centre.

The architecture and mall designs ensure that all 5 levels of the mall will have significant footfalls at any given time. The entrance is located one level up, with easy access to both the lower ground and upper ground levels for easy and convenient shopping. The first and second floors house the multiplex, food courts, gaming and entertainment, while retail is spread over all other levels through specialized zoning, ensuring traffic and guaranteeing footfalls. In a nut shell, this project will give you a sense of pride to own, work, play and shop.

Thanking Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, Satinder Bhasin said, “We dared to dream few years back and envisaged recreating the romance of Venice here in the heart of Delhi NCR and I’m proud that our dream has finally taken shape. We are sure that the Grand Venice will emerge as a major tourist destination not only for Delhi NCR but the whole of India.”

The glittering event saw a huge turnout of Corporate Honchos, Retail Heads, Media Professionals, Bureaucrats & Socialites and was followed by a scintillating performance by Bollywood singer Mika. Prominent attendees included Ramaraman Chairman Noida & Greater Noida Authority, Rajiv Kumar of DS Group, Raju Chadha from the Wave Group, Balu Subramanian from Reliance, Vikram Sawhney from Sun Group, Ricky Dhal prominent businessman from US, Datu Abdullah from eden group underworld group Lankawi Malaysia & filmmaker Rahul Mittra, amongst others.
