Gandhi Maidan

Gandhi Maidan is a historic ground in Patna, near the banks of the Ganges River, in Bihar, India. The Golghar lies to its west. During the period of 1824–1833, under British rule, it was used as a golf course and horse racing track and was called Patna Lawns. It is spread across 60 acres of land. It

has a great political significance as well. Khairun Miya had donated this piece of land to help further the national movement and several important meetings of well-known freedom fighters were held here.
