Eden Gardens
=== Eden Gardens===
The Eden Gardens were started by Lord Aukland's sisters and are beautifully laid out. They were the main gathering place of Calcutta Society in the time of the British Raj. They are also the home of India's oldest cricket ground, the Calcutta Cricket Club, and have a lake which was the home of the Rowing Club. Beside the lake is a Burmese Pagoda brought from Prome and set up in 1856. There were many statues in the Gardens.[http://www.imagesofasia.com/html/india/pagoda-eden.html Calcutta Eden Gardens 1910] Postcard from Images of India
