Chowgan Ground, Public ground in Kishtwar, India

The Chowgan Ground spans 165 acres surrounded by chinar and cedar trees in the mountainous region of Jammu and Kashmir.

This land was originally Goverdhansar Lake until natural forces caused the water to drain, creating the current expansive ground surface.

The ground serves as a gathering space for both Muslim and Hindu celebrations, including Eid prayers, Dussehra festivals, and Rama Navami ceremonies.

Located 1.5 kilometers from Kishtwar bus station along National Highway 244, the ground restricts non-essential vehicle access to maintain its condition.

The name Chowgan derives from an ancient polo-like game that was played on these grounds in past centuries.
