When it comes to places in Bengal that carry deep sentimental value, Shantiniketan is undoubtedly at the top of my list. This serene haven, founded by Rabindranath Tagore, is not just a destination—it’s an emotion, a journey back to simplicity and creativity.

A Personal Connection
Growing up, family trips to Shantiniketan were like a ritual. It wasn’t just about the place but the moments we shared—early morning tea in the courtyard, cycling through the red-soil paths, and singing Tagore’s songs by the evening lamp.
What I Love Most
The sense of timelessness here is unmatched. It’s a place where life slows down, and you’re reminded of what truly matters—nature, creativity, and human connection.
