Millennium Park is a public park in Kolkata, situated along the Strand Road on eastern shore of Hooghly River for a stretch of 2.5 km, near Fairlie Ghat and opposite to Railway Club. The park consists of landscaped gardens and children's amusement rides.[1] It was opened along the riverside to provide a green area for Kolkata's polluted waterway. It is a millennium gift from Kolkata Metropolitan Development Authority, inaugurated on 26 December 1999.[2] The park is part of the first phases of the Kolkata Riverside Beautification Project.[3]
