Deshapriya Park, Public park in Kalighat, South Kolkata, India.

Located between Rashbehari Avenue and Sarat Bose Road, Deshapriya Park offers cricket fields, football grounds, and tennis courts for sports enthusiasts.

The park experienced a reduction in size over time due to various encroachments, including the construction of a club, public facilities, and restaurants.

During the annual Durga Puja festival, the park transforms into a central celebration space where multiple pandals showcase traditional Bengali customs.

Open daily from 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM without entry fees, the park provides facilities for morning exercises, jogging tracks, and children's play areas.

In 2015, Deshapriya Park became the first location in Kolkata to implement a grid-connected battery-less solar power street lighting system.

Location: Ward No. 85, Kolkata Municipal Corporation
