However, it was in 2004 when it was enlarged, and landscaped with tree-lined hillocks, mini bridge and waterfalls.Needless to say that it is the most visited place in the club and it is a pleasure to have food and combine it with the exotic experience of sitting in front of an illuminated red tiled and tilted roofed heritage building.

Been to Rolland Garros for French Open? Not needed! A visit to red clay topped tennis courts of RGMC will suffice.
