Bhowanipore or Bhabanipur is the oldest locality of South Kolkata. It is located just south of the Lower Circular Road (now A.J.C. Bose Road). It is the second largest locality in South Kolkata after Ballygunge. The locality has its boundary touching the AJC Bose Road, Maidan, Victoria Memorial and consists of well-known and posh localities like Elgin Road, Gokhale Road, Woodburn Park, Bakulbagan Road, Harish Mukherjee Road, Beltala Road, Townshend Road and parts of Chakraberia & Lansdowne. The locality has an illustrious past and abound with stories of great men and women who lived here,although in the recent years it has lost much of its glory to Ballygunge(which has gone ahead in terms of good roads,posh locales,and modern day developments).
