Can't import package after installing in a conda environment

Question

I tried to install gdal package on my conda environment. I activated gcpy environment and installed the gdal package using conda install -c conda-forge gdal. The package installs successfully. But, when I tried to import the package, I get error:

In [1]: import gdal
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ModuleNotFoundError                       Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-1-ee38efafc30b> in <module>
----> 1 import gdal
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gdal'

I can see the package in the conda list.

I tried conda update --all as said Here . I also tried all similar question. But, still no solution.

There are five major modules that are included with the GDAL Python bindings.:

 from osgeo import gdal
 from osgeo import ogr
 from osgeo import osr
 from osgeo import gdal_array
 from osgeo import gdalconst

Additionally, there are five compatibility modules that are included but provide notices to state that they are deprecated and will be going away. If you are using GDAL 1.7 bindings, you should update your imports to utilize the usage above, but the following will work until at least GDAL 2.1.

 import gdal
 import ogr
 import osr
 import gdalnumeric
 import gdalconst

If you have previous code that imported the global module and still need to support the old import, a simple try…except import can silence the deprecation warning and keep things named essentially the same as before:

    try:
        from osgeo import gdal
    except ImportError:
        import gdal
