Sovabazar Rajbari Durgotsav

শোভাবাজার রাজবাড়ি

Continuous worship since 1757, started by Raja Nabakrishna Deb after the Battle of Plassey

The benchmark of aristocrat pujas in Bengal. Witness the historic courtyard (Thakur Dalan), the rare silver daker saaj, flying of the Neelkanth bird ritual, and traditional cannon/gun salute echoes.
