A must visit place inside Kolkata. Its bit outskirts of Kolkata and the serenity, peace and beauty of this temple and surroundings just mind blowing. You will be feeling like to sit there for long without thinking anything. This temple has its own selling counter from where you can have good incense stick ( I bought that) also there is a reasonable restaurant.
