No cantonment is now at present. Takdah Cantonment area was constructed for rest & recuperation of the British Army during the 1st world war. Still some ruins and well-maintained buildings exists which should be renovated. Takdah is also famous for its orchid cultivation. Call Mamaji 9883946880 for further information.

  • Hi I am Pawan Limbu from Nepal (Biratnagar) Studied in Green Shield Academy (Takdah). Missing those wonderful days and Wishing all the staff's for there good health.
  • Hi, this is Dikki Yolmo the EX-Student of Green Shield Academy, recently working as a senior HP Technical Associate in Wipro since last 2 and half years. I am really missing my school days and my native place. One day early in the morning I was really missing my place. So, just thought of surfing in the net and then I wanted to see my place through Google earth. The moment I saw the pictures and the comment given by others I just could not stop myself from jotting down few comments. Takdah is totally different place as compared to others this is because of the people situated there. People in takdah are so nice and helpful. The weather in Takdah is very cool with heavy rainfall during rainy season and mild during other season. The Queen Of Hills "Darjeeling" being just 18 km away, from Takdah there is no problem of connectivity between Darjeeling and Takdah as busses and jeeps are constantly available. It is one of the most beautiful locations on the outskirt of Darjeeling. I am missing my home. I love you Takdah.
