Raj Bhavan, Darjeeling

The Raj Bhavan (Translation: Government House) at Darjeeling is the summer residence for the Governor of West Bengal.

Raj Bhavan used to be the Governor's House during the British era.

The permanent residence of the Governor was at the Belvedere Estate in Calcutta.

However, during the hot summer time, the Governor used to shift his residence to Darjeeling, along with the whole office.

Even now, the Governor of West Bengal spends two weeks every summer at the Raj Bhavan in Darjeeling.
