Rabindra Sarobar - A Choicest Recreation Centre in South Kolkata

Rabindra Sarobar, also referred as the Dhakuria Lake, in South Kolkata is the choicest recreation centre for the local Kolkatans, travellers and trippers into the city. The word “Rabindra” refers to the great Rabindra Nath Tagore and the word “Sarobar” in English means Lake. It's dedicated to our beloved poet and author Rabindra Nath Tagore. The spot has developed by leaps and bounce under the Calcutta Improvement Trust (CIT). It has dedicated parks, gardens, artificial lake, stadium, mosque, cricket coaching clubs, rowing club, hanging bridge, etc.

Beautifully decorated parks and gardens consisting of different types of herbs, shrubs and trees cover the region. These are well-designed and well-maintained as well. Whether you're a morning walker, jogger or a traveller here, the surrounding greenery would demand your attention right from the word go. Several ancient trees of different shapes and sizes would bind you to stop and look at them at least for once. Moreover, it's totally a different experience walking through the parks and gardens with thick growth of greenery on the either side. The twittering sounds of birds would encourage and accompany you while you are in your way. You would find trees loaded with leaves, trees branching out in zig-zag direction and trees without any leaves as well. Besides, the flowers of different colours nodding their heads in the soft breeze add value to the place and prompt you about their presence.

View of the Rabindra Sarobar Lake

One of the main attraction of the park is the artificial lake flowing through the heart of the region. It spreads out far and wide within the vicinity of the Rabindra Sarobar. There're plenty of sitting spaces available near the bank of the lake. Moreover, a narrow path runs beside the lake on an elevated platform beside the lake. Enjoy a pleasure walk around the lake or rest yourself in any of the benches enjoying the beauty of the lake under the soft breeze. Besides, you may sight rowing enthusiasts plying over the crystal clear waters of the lake in groups or in a single canoe.

The Padma Pukur Park is another indistinguishable section of the Rabindra Sarobar. It's a beautifully

Given below is a video that highlights the Lake Kalibari, Birla Academy of Art and Culture (located opposite of Rabindra Sarobar), Padma Pukur Park Rabindra Sarobar, Nazrul Mancha, etc., lying in the vicinity of Rabindra Sarobar. Hope you enjoy this video.

Moreover, Rabindra Sarobar has cricket coaching clubs, an ancient mosque beside a hanging bridge and the Nazrul Mancha stadium. So this spot has something to offer everyone. To describe it in a single write-up is a daunting task for sure. To get the real feel about the charm and attractions of the place you need to visit it. However, Life Breezy is a testimony of the fact that it's one of the most choicest recreation centre in South Kolkata in the state of West Bengal, India.
