Dr. Annie Besant Park, Public park in Triplicane, Chennai, India.
The triangular park serves as a traffic island at the junction of Dr. Besant Road and Kamarajar Salai, featuring walking paths and green spaces.
Named after British theosophist Annie Besant, who dedicated her life to India's independence movement and advocated for educational reforms in the early 1900s.
The park displays a sculpture titled 'Fishermen at the Buckingham Canal' created by students from the Government College of Arts and Crafts in 2010.
Located opposite Marina Beach, the park functions as one of seven designated entry points to the beach and remains open throughout the year.
The park combines recreational space with maritime heritage through its strategic position between the urban center and the Coromandel Coast.
