I had an occasion to visit the Chintamani Kar Bird sanctuary (CKBS) on a Saturday. It happened as a solo trip. I was amazed to see such a good tourist place and above all a sanctuary so close to Kolkata. It is located in Narendrapur - Rathtala area. Many Private buses, Autos, Totos are available to travel to this place. The nearest metro station is Kavi Nazrul (Garia Bazar Area). You will get auto just outside the metro station which will take max 10 mins to get you to Rathtala. Fare is Rs.11.00. From Rathtala it maximum 5 mins walking to reach CKBS gate. Entry fee is Rs.50.00 per head. You will see all sorts of birds there. It is a dense forest and very hard to believe that it man-maid. The only negative aspect of the place is that it is a natural habitat of mosquitoes who will surely give you a very hard time unless you take proper precautions.

"It was an amazing experience" would be an understatement. Our one day one night stay at Dhamsa mud hut in Sundargram with my family was one of our in-erasable memory.The serenity of the place and surrounding, the arrangements, the management and the staffs were outstanding. Also opted for Bon fire and Bauler gan - and it was a fabulous combined experience. Given a chance would like to have a longer stay there next time. Last but not the least, forgot to pick up my accompanying bag while checking out and contacted the management after reaching home. They cordially arranged for its return with a smile.
