Talkatora Gardens

Talkatora Garden is a Mughal-era garden situated on the Mother Teresa Crescent in New Delhi. In Mughal times, it used to be a tank and a swimming pool. The Marathas raid on Delhi occurred on March 28, 1737, when the Marathas, led by Bajirao, targeted the Mughals near Talkatora, close to Delhi. Bajirao sought to avenge for the Marathas' prior defeat at the Battle of Jalesar by Saadat Ali Khan. The garden is now more famous for the Talkatora Stadium. It attracts a large number of tourists.
