Marble Palace Zoo, Private zoo at Marble Palace in Kolkata, India.
The Marble Palace Zoo contains an extensive collection of bird species, including peacocks, toucans, storks, and cranes within its grounds.
Raja Rajendra Mullick established this zoo in 1854, making it the first zoological garden to open in India during the British colonial period.
The zoo represents the tradition of Indian aristocracy maintaining private menageries while combining European architectural elements in their residences.
Visitors must obtain written permission from the West Bengal Tourism Office before entering the zoo premises and touring the adjacent palace.
The zoo maintains its original Victorian-era layout and continues to function as part of an inhabited aristocratic residence in North Kolkata.
