| Talkatora Gardens are located on the main Willingdon
Crescent Road and are popularly known for housing a well-maintained
Indoor Stadium. Talkatora (tal-tank, katora-cup) Gardens derives
its name from the fact that it was once a large walled tank.
However, these days one may not find a tank but definitely a
large sized swimming pool. It was here that the Mughals defeated
the Marathas in the battle of 1738. |

| Beautifully laid, the gardens become the center
of attraction during the spring season when the lovely colorful
shrubs, plants and flowers are on display. Apart from this the
sprawling gardens also serve as a perfect venue for various
programs, shows and competitions held round the year. It is
a good picnic and relaxing spot with numerous shady trees, potted
plants and colorful flowers offering a peaceful ambience. Shows
are also organized for children to develop their interest in
the science of horticulture. |
