Siliguri to Shantiniketan

From childhood, I heard about Shantiniketan, built by Robi Thakur. The most peaceful place, The great VisvaBharati University, where Mrs. Indira Gandhi, Satyajit Ray, Noble laureate Amartya Sen .. So many learned personality  studied there. The authentic Bengali cuisine at Amar Kutir is mouth watering, still attracting many tourists.
Different departments of culture, Museum of Bangladesh department of art and architecture, dance & music make the place more attractive.
The childhood home of Robi Thakur, a huge Bengali zamindar house,tal ghor where screw pine jaggery prepared. I like his house, which he makes according to his choice.. Though 2 storey building, but back of that a small thatched hut or Kutir where he spent most of his times.
Like Govt. Crafts shop Amar Kutir, there is a leather factory.
Last but least, I enjoyed my evening at Khoaii mela, with the local bolpur sarees and crafts and evening cultural programmes of Baul, Rabindra Sangeet and dance..
Very soon coming with new place...
