Chitralekha Udyan

Seebu misra 6 months ago

The only place I found in my short trip where u can relax in evening and could feel the cold breeze. Good time pass with family. Lush green with a large lake where u can enjoy boating too. Water park ride (one) is available but not in use. It looks little more beautiful when lights are on.

Cole Park or Chitralekha Udyan as it now known as was created on orders of the then British Deputy Commissioner, Mr. Cole in 1906 as an recreational park. The park is now renamed as Chitralekha Udyan by the Government of Assam relating the mythological connection of Tezpur with the epic Mahabharata. It is said that it was here that Aniruddha grandson of Lord Krishna was lured by Usha daughter of King Bana of Sonitpur.

The park besides the well laid out garden area has two massive ornamented stone pillars, and other sculptural remnants related to the historical and archeological sites around Tezpur, among which one of the most important being the replica of Bhomoraguri inscription, depicting an ancient plan of building a bridge on the River Brahmaputra by the then Ahom General Kolia Bhomora Borphukon.

If you ask me a place to chill in Tezpur then I will definitely suggest you this place.
This place is full of greenery and history
Every stone depicts different stories
It's a great place for children too as there are a lot of things to play here
Moreover there is a large pond where boating facilities are given to folks
With a very minimal entry fee you can enjoy the nature at its peak
Remember one thing as there are no online payment option here,so take carry cash .
Hope you visit here and like the place
