★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Raja Nabakrishna Deb (1737–97), founder of the Shobhabazar Rajbari (at 35), started life modestly but soon amassed considerable wealth in his service to the British, in particular by his role in assisting to topple Siraj ud-Daulah. During his lifetime Raja Nabakrishna Deb built two houses. The building at 35 Raja Nabakrishna Street (known as Shobhabazar Rajbari or "Baag ola Bari - House with the lions"), on the northern side of the road, was the one first constructed by him, subsequently inherited by his adopted son from his elder brother Gopimohan and his descendants including his son Radhakanta Deb. The house at 33 Raja Nabakrishna Street (known as Choto Rajbari) was built by him when a son was born to him later in life, and was left to his biological son Rajkrishna and his descendants.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Shovabazar area is an old part of the city. The palace, or the shovabazar rajbari was created by sri Nabakrisna Deb in the 18th century when he had to move from where the now fort William situates. This is one of the oldest family where durga puja started in Kolkata. The palace is still well maintained and the durga puja is celebrated with equal enthusiasm.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ There are two Rajbari’s in this area for those who don’t know, this is the older and grander of the two, this is where many wedding these days take place apart from Durga Pujo.
This Rajbari has a golden idol whereas the other Rajbari has a silver idol.
