Herbal garden
The names of the Advia are remembered from the soil, not the page
One acre of the campus is given to the herbal garden, maintained by the department of Ilmul Advia. Every plant carries its Unani name, botanical name and temperament on a label.
Students do not merely stroll here — their practicals, collection assignments and herbarium sheets all come from this garden.
- 300+ medicinal plant species, labelled and documented
- Section-wise arrangement by therapeutic action
- Nursery for propagation and seed collection
- Drying and storage unit for raw drugs
- Guided visits for school students and visitors
