Driving
is a necessity in our day-to-day life, giving us less of fun and reminding us
of our duty that we need to reach our destination in time. However, when it
becomes a part of our very existence, the real fun starts unfurling itself. I
personally know many car owners who are keen on a long drive at their weekends
though at a loss to decide where to go.
Now
it is high time to put your worries and confusion to bed as a trip to Kolaghat
is what makes the perfect choice for the city breeds. I would also suggest you
to consider booking a hotel in Kolaghat well in advance despite
its being a less-frequented destination for those in search of a weekend
escapade.
A
little about Kolaghat
Located
in East Midnapore district of West Bengal, this place will not fail to cast its
spell on the vacationers. The charming beauty is seated on the banks of
Rupnarayan River and nearly 68 km away from Kolkata. As you will approach the
tiny town, you will get to see the river murmuring away on your left. The river
becomes tumultuous at times, bringing the romantic persona deeply buried in you
after a long time.
Natural
Beauty of Kolaghat
Being
far away from city noise and crowd as well as teeming visitors, Kolaghat is a
serene town beauty. Feast your eyes on nature’s scenic and serene best during
sunrise and sunset. The river looks dazzling when the orange halo slowly pops
up from scintillating waterbed and dives into it during dawn and dusk,
spreading hues all over that can only match the artists’ imagination.
Sit
for hours by the riverside even when the dusk silently tiptoes. Try to decipher
the sound of the river gurgling away. And when the night descends, you will see
the fishermen’s boats glistening like dots amidst the pervading pitch dark. With tranquilly reigning all over, humming of
swirling river is enough to stab the ‘pin drops silence’.
Rivers
also have stories, weaving an engaging and enigmatic tale through unending
lullabies and low murmurs. If you have not experienced that before, this time
think different, think about Kolaghat. In fact, the riverside in Kolaghat has
emerged as a popular hotspot for picnic. Enjoy your vacation in the best way
possible by choosing a good hotel in Kolaghat.
Food
Delight
This
river beauty is popular for another big attraction – Hilsa. You will see giant
trawlers busy with catching fish during monsoon season. You will feel like
cursing the greedy men who catch them too young and this fact coupled with
erratic monsoon is the cause for depleting supply of hilsa. If you are visiting
Kolaghat during the season of hilsa, you will get to experience a variety of
delectable hilsa dishes at any hotel here.
Deuti
is another popular visiting spot which is only a few kilometres away from
Kolaghat. It is also famous as the birth place of Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay,
one of the renowned novelists of Bengal. Get back from your Kolaghat visit
completely refreshed, relaxed and rejuvenated.
