Introduction

Explore the evocative Eastern city of Bhātpāra, India, with this three-day itinerary packed with cultural adventures! Signature street foods, enticing local markets, historical vestiges and the vivacious spirit of India’s community waits for you.

Day 1 - Arrival and Cultural Immersion

After you’ve set foot at Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport and settled into your accommodation, gear up for your Indian adventure. Start off with a leisurely stroll around this ebullient city! Bhātpāra is packed with rich Indian heritage and culture. First, visit the Lord Shiva Temple, one of the oldest temples, and immerse yourself in the entrancing spiritual aura. After soothing your soul, allure your taste buds with some tantalizing street food. The puchkas (pani puri), crisp puris stuffed with spiced mashed potato dunked in tangy tamarind water, is a must-try. As evening falls, walk along the lively river banks of Hooghly. The chatter of locals, the hued twilight sky reflecting on the river, offers a sheer, charming spectacle.

Day 2 - Historical Discovery and Market Adventure

Walk back in time as you head towards the Konnagar Ghosh Para. Here, you can admire the beautifully preserved historic houses of Rabindranath Tagore, a famous poet and philosopher, and Rishi Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, the composer of India's National Song. Next, visit the Mahashtami temple and experience the tranquility enveloping the sacred site. After visiting the temple, get ready to plunge into the bustling world of Chandannagar Strand, a local market selling vibrant Indian textiles, exquisite jewelry, handiwork, and an array of other goods. You can buy souvenirs or simply indulge in some local shopping and enjoy the energy of this colorful market.

Day 3 - Communion with Nature and Farewell

Commence your last day with an early morning bird-watching session at the Barrackpore Trunk Road Bird Sanctuary. The twittering of birds, the cool morning breeze, the rustling leaves – it's nature's symphony at its best! Following the idyllic start, set forth to the Kalyani Ghoshpara Railway station for a rustic train ride that’d allow you to absorb the pastoral magnificence of rural India. Mark the end of your trip on a delicious note, relishing at a local eating joint. Make sure to try Macher Jhol (fish curry), a staple Bengali dish. As dusk descends, start your journey back home, carrying cherished memories of your trip to Bhatpara.
