Beside the famous Eden Gardens Cricket Stadium in Kolkata lies the Pagoda
[Original caption] The Pagoda, Eden Gardens. The Eden Gardens are beautifully laid-out grounds and were for many years the gathering place in the evening of the fashionable society of Calcutta. In the gardens is the Calcutta Cricket Ground, and on the side of the water is a picturesque Burmese Pagoda, brought from Prome and set up in 1856. [end]
Eden Gardens is India's oldest cricket ground. It is often called the Lord's of Asia. It is truly an experience to witness the 100,000 lively spectators cheering their cricketing heroes on the field at the Stadium.
