Taki

Another place very near to Kolkata, a town on the bank of Ichamati River ( ইছামতি নদী ) in the district of North 24 pgs. This is the international border between India and Bangladesh . The shores of Bangladesh are visible on the other side of the river.  It is exactly 68 K.M from Kolkata Science City and takes about 1 and half hours if one takes the new road via Bantala – Ghatakpur. The driving was a real pleasure and the sight offers a panoramic view.  The place is an ideal option for a brief stay from the din and dazzle of city life. Time flies away simply sitting on the riverbed and observing the captivating sight of ever changing mood and colour of the river. We paid a visit to the place on the day of “Maha Saptami” and put up at Suhashini Guest House. It was a good experience staying at Suhashini. The quality of the food was also very much home like and we had a lip-smacking menu for lunch comprising of : Plain Rice Mooger Daal Beguni Alu Posto Parshe Mach Bhaja Sors
