About this experience
Embark on a full-day journey to the serene and culturally rich town of Santiniketan from Kolkata. Your day begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Kolkata, setting out on a scenic drive to Santiniketan, a place that epitomizes peace and creativity. Upon arrival, your first stop will be Tagore's Ashram, the heart of Santiniketan. Next, venture into the Uttarayan Complex, where you'll find a collection of houses where Tagore lived at various stages of his life.
A visit to Chhatimtala is next on the itinerary. This sacred spot is where Maharshi Debendranath Tagore, Rabindranath's father, meditated and laid the foundation of what would later evolve into the Vishwa Bharati University. The journey continues to the sprawling Vishwa Bharati Campus, which Rabindranath Tagore founded with the vision of facilitating a confluence of cultures worldwide. As the day winds down, you'll return to Kolkata, carrying the peace and artistic inspiration that Santi Niketan embodies.
