West Bengal is a state of poetic beauty, cultural richness, and historical depth. From colonial-era Kolkata to Himalayan hill stations and dense mangrove forests, Bengal beckons with variety and vibrancy.
Kolkata – The Cultural Capital:
Explore Kolkata’s colonial charm through landmarks like Victoria Memorial, Indian Museum, and Marble Palace. Savor street foods like kathi rolls and puchka, and enjoy the intellectual buzz of College Street’s bookshops and coffee houses.
Darjeeling – Queen of the Hills:
With its rolling tea estates and mist-covered valleys, Darjeeling is as romantic as it is refreshing. Visit Tiger Hill for sunrise views of Kanchenjunga, take a ride on the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, and explore Tibetan monasteries that dot the slopes.
Sundarbans – Mangrove Majesty:
Sundarbans National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage site and home to the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger. Cruise through tidal waterways under a green canopy and discover the complex ecosystem of the world’s largest mangrove forest.
Shantiniketan – Tagore’s Abode:
Founded by Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore, Shantiniketan is a hub of art, literature, and open-air learning. Attend Baul music festivals or explore Visva-Bharati University for a peaceful, artistic retreat.
Dooars & Kalimpong – Forested Escapes:
The Dooars region offers riverine forests, wildlife sanctuaries, and tea gardens. Kalimpong, perched on a ridge, is known for its monasteries, orchid nurseries, and views of the Eastern Himalayas.
