One of the most important roads, Ballygunge Circular Road runs through the upscale part of Ballygunge in South Kolkata. Starting with the Ballygunge Science College right off Gariahat Road, it winds it way up with landmarks like Tripura House on the right, and then passes St Lawrence High School on the left before bending slowing to the right and eventually meeting Gurusaday Dutta Road about a mile up the road and then finally meets AJC Bose Road way ahead. A large military camp (known as Ballygunge Maidan Camp) is located on the North-Western stretch of the road, starting right after the David Hare Training College and ending at the intersection of Chakraberia Road.
