How many times in a year do you travel to the <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/p/the-relaxing-travel-packages-of-north_8.html" target="_blank">hill destinations of India</a>? Not reaching for the bigger picture, if just the hilly regions of West Bengal, then it must be thrice a year. You just Google your destination and get the information of distance, sightseeing places and that's all. The <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2016/08/the-best-travel-packages-of-bengal_86.html" target="_blank">itineraries</a> given to you by the travel agents are precisely the scripts that are recited commonly to everyone. Somewhat like an interactive voice response ( IVR), you hear when you call the customer service department. But have you ever given any consideration to the local food items of Hilly Region? Many people think that the tribe in hills are hardcore non-vegetarians, but on a few know that they do have the some of the rarest veg -food items in ethnic cuisines.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Experiment the International standard veg-food items of Darjeeling and Sikkim Hills:</h3>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
As a local host and also a travel consultant I've asked many travelers about some of the most common local food items of Darjeeling Hills and Sikkim, but they'd never even seen them. Mostly in all the homestays of Darjeeling, homestays of Kalimpong and Homestays of Sikkim, you can easily find these veg-food items. The most strange part is that these wild vegetables are rarely eaten in other tourist destinations of India. If you just check these wild vegetables they are the most exotic cuisine items in the cooking world of the finest chefs from all around the world.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So why to empty your pockets in an expensive foreign restaurant when you can truly taste them locally in its natural and native flavors.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1. Tamarillo ( Rukh Tamater in local language)</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is a shiny red fruit with the shape and size of an egg. It is a very common vegetable item in the villages of Darjeeling Hills and Sikkim. People eat them in form of chutneys, pickles, and sometimes even with meat. If you are a food lover and love to search for international cuisine then you may find it as one of the most exotic items in veg- food recipes used for desserts, salsas, sauces, and chutneys. The taste of this fruit is a bit tart and sour. These fruits have a long shelf life. Apart from its rich taste and flavor, these fruits are also good sources of Vitamins A, B6, and C, Vitamin E, Thiamine, and potassium. So next time when you travel to the homestays of Darjeeling, Sikkim, do not forget to ask for a chutney made of Rukh Tamater.<br />

The beautifully furled fronds of wild and young fern is a delicacy local food in the hills of West Bengal. Whether non-veg-food items or purely vegetarian the forest flavors of this green vegetable enhances the flavors of any dish. You may be puzzled when you see them but not every fern fiddlehead tastes the same or edible. Only a few of them are served with delicacies. This vegetable is not commercially grown in the hills but is mostly collected by the villagers from the dense forest areas. However, in other parts of the world, they are harvested to be sold to restaurants where they create different recipes with Nigro or fern fiddleheads.</div>

Do not go by the fearsome look and itchy stings of this plant. For people in hills of North Bengal and Sikkim, this plant is both a pain and gain. The itchy and burning sting of this plant is a big problem when you are lost in the forest and have to make your own way through the bushes. But, apart from this, it also has its great uses when you bring it to the local foods of the Rural areas of Himalayan villages. People eat both its flower seeds and young shoots. They also take it for medicinal purpose where it is known to control your blood pressure. This green thorny plant is used in many popular cuisines of Thailand and Vietnam. </div>

Nowhere you can find this vegetable. In hills, it is only found in the dense and undisturbed forest areas. Even the Botanists find it hard to identify this plant. It is known by many names like snake plant, because of its snake-like patterned skin. This plant has recently started attracting flower lovers in other countries because of its beautiful looking flower. In hills, you can sometimes find few tribals selling the new shoot of this plant. They prepare a wonder curry made of this plant which I bet you have never ever tasted.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
So. now anytime if you travel to the homestays or hotels of Darjeeling, Sikkim, and rural areas of other hill destinations of West Bengal, just call out their local names and surprise them with your knowledge of their culture and food habits. If possible you can even create your own unique recipe of veg-food items using the above-mentioned items and share your knowledge with them. </div>

<br />
Homestays is now fast becoming the most preferred product of tourism. Whether you always book luxury hotels or opt for resorts in the most glorious cities of India, you always miss the warm embracement of nature. So, adding up with luxury is like adding up flavors to compensate what the tourists purchase. Precisely, all just to make them feel upgraded and privileged than their home environment.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Not to mention anything about Luxury hotels, you perhaps should know more about homestays. This is because you must already have extravagantly spent your vacation in most of the <strong><a href="https://ad.admitad.com/g/q38i489917bba90b91199abd4df56e/" target="_blank">luxury hotels of West Bengal.</a> </strong>You may be in quite a dilemma whether to suddenly change the travel plan that you have always preferred for your vacations. This post will help you understand the difference and choose the best.</div>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
1. I'll just pay for it:</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even the best service luxury hotels will always remind you of their commercial values. No matter how much they will impress you, your impression will always depend on your cost. In homestays, this doesn't work. It's a home built not by professionals, commercial values but a custom, tradition, relationship and true values. Now you are someone who lives a life of a lone wolf. You like to smoke alone looking out through the window with no one to inform your whereabouts. You want everything to be exchanged for money. So, if you're someone who feels to be independent in terms of money you hold, homestay is not the place for you.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
2. I'll order my food and snacks any time I wish :</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You love to drink, smoke and looking at your watch is something annoys you. There is lunch time, dinner time and breakfast time for you. These names are just the meals that you have the first time, 2nd time and the time before your sleep in a day. In this scenario, your own luxury hotel will be best for you. It's hard-earned time and you do not want to measure it like your log-in and log our time at the office. This is a break from your work life and nothing else.<br />

</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
3. My room is my messy smoking Zone:</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You are quite a social networking freak. No matter wherever you go, you never leave your virtual world. So all you need in between is a wall to lean against and an ash-tray on the side-stool. You turn your room into a smoky zone with you the hacker. You want no one to complain and even talk behind you. Do not opt for homestay accommodation if you're one of such beings. </div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
4. I hang "Do Not Disturb" on the door:</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is one of the most common things about the luxury hotels. In homestays, there is more communication than the language of banners and flyers. There is no awkwardness in speaking out what you want. If it's too much for you to speak out then you should not look out for homestays in the rural areas.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
5. I can't miss my favorite show on Television:</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So you carry the curiosity of next episode more than you have for the new destination. You want a television right next to your bed, and of course the remote control in your hand. Some homestays do not have the television in the guest rooms. They prefer watching it together with family. So sadly, you will miss your bedtime entertainment. Better to call your own luxury hotel's receptionist and make it clear that you would not ever miss your show. So better tell them to check for it.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
6. You are a Nocturnal animal:</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You are an owl. You perch lazily during the daytime and as the darkness embraces you become a predator. Your energy boosts up after the evening and remains constant till the morning hours. Well, homestays are hardly even near to the urban lifestyle. "Early to bed and early to rise" rhyme song is still sung in the rural destinations of India. Forget about the lights inside the houses, but you won't even find street lights glowing near to the homestays. Better decline your idea of homestay accommodation than to act like an insomniac for the whole night.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
7. You are a fast food lover :</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Pizza, burger, and energy drinks are all the part of your balanced diet. Whether it's in the morning or at night, you have all the home-delivery numbers. If you are in a homestay, tea and snacks are all you can at least order, and that too not every time. If you cannot control your hunger for fast food and drinks, better go for the luxury hotels.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Home stays are mostly located in the rural destinations. Just for example if you ever visit the <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2016/08/the-best-travel-packages-of-bengal_86.html" target="_blank">best offbeat location of West Bengal</a>, you will find a totally different experience than in the <a href="https://ad.admitad.com/g/q38i489917bba90b91199abd4df56e/" target="_blank">Luxury hotels of West Bengal</a>. The choice is upon you and your perception about how you plan your travel plans. If you ever like to get more details about the destination and your doubts, better talk with the hosts directly. In west Bengal, there are many homestays that are localted in some the best places of West Bengal, and in order to identify your local you can alway take our help and some one will be there to help you. </div>

As a rural tourism consultant and a local host voice support for the <strong><a href="https://meaningfultravelindia.com/meaningful-journeys-india/" target="_blank">meaningful travelers</a></strong>, I almost frequently get one question in common - How to find a share taxi to this destination? Yes, it's true that getting to the <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2016/05/the-best-ways-to-book-homestay-in-west.html" target="_blank"><strong>offbeat and rural destinations of North Bengal</strong> </a>by one's own access to the information is almost impossible. There are certain destinations where even google maps will not help you. That leaves the travelers who love the atmosphere of the <strong>homestays of West Bengal</strong> with one option, to hire a car. The travel cost hikes up beyond your budget, and it's fairly unquestionable because of the remoteness and the rough conditions of the roads.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let this post run on series, one by one, in order to help you out for each of the <strong>offbeat and rural destinations of North Bengal.</strong> The first destination to start with is <strong>Samsing</strong> <strong>Suntalekhola</strong> - a destination that will help you to explore the <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2016/06/dooars-your-new-summer-destination.html" target="_blank"><strong>Dooars region</strong> of the<strong> tourism map of West Bengal</strong></a>.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This post will also help you to find a share taxi or a local bus to other nearby <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2015/05/the-monsoon-destinations-of-north.html" target="_blank"><strong>tourist spots of West Bengal</strong>.</a> Some examples are <strong>Jholung, Bindu, Dalgaon, Gorumara, and Lataguri. </strong>The first thing to know is to know about the nearest Railway station and the airport. There are two nearest Railway stations to explore the beauty of <strong>Samsing Suntalekhola</strong>. - NJP & New Mal Junction. New MalJunction is more a local station and only travelers from Kolkata can take this option. For the travelers who take the option of the nearest airport is <a href="https://ad.admitad.com/g/7cwhobma7tbba90b91190067c4c082/" target="_blank"><b>Bagdogra airport or ( IXB)</b></a>. They too can apply the same option right from the airport instead of NJP.</div>

New Jalpaiguri or (NJP) :</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Note - It always depends upon the train arrival time. It's always good if it's early morning hours because that way you will have ample options available. If the time is afternoon, then you may have to change your plan or options.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
New Jalpaiguri has the connectivity to almost all the parts of India. So, this option is mostly for the travelers who will <a href="https://ad.admitad.com/g/m5emqmwlpwbba90b9119f4cbd1e000/" target="_blank"><b>travel to West Bengal</b> </a>from all other places of India. Here I have mentioned the route dividing them into steps to help you understand better:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ol>
<li>After you arrive at NJP, head directly towards the exit and reach the parking area of the platform. Just head towards the auto-rickshaw parking area. You will find a number of auto-rickshaws that will hang the board on the front side saying <strong>" Salugura to Njp". </strong>Just check the one which will be about to leave the stand.<strong> </strong>You will find them waiting for the passengers to fill up. Remember they'll only leave if it's their turn in the list. Reconfirm by asking them if they will drop you at <strong>PC Mittal Bus Terminal.</strong></li>
<li>The charge is far less in comparison to hiring an auto-rickshaw. After you arrive <strong>PC Mittal Bus </strong>Terminal head towards the Ticket counter and aks for the Bus to <strong>Malbazar. </strong>Again you can also find a Bus directly to Samsing, but from Samsing you may again have to hire a car. However, it will cost you far less in comparison to hiring the car from NJP. I have mentioned Malbazar because you can get a share taxi from here that will directly take you to Samsing Suntalekhola. Please understand that Samsing and Suntalekhla are two different locations. Suntalekhola is 5 Kms farther from Samsing</li>
<li>After you arrive Malbazar, check the time. there is number of share vehicles that you can board at Malbazar. These vehicles can reach you directly at Suntalekhola. The good thing is that all the drivers will know the address of all the homestays of Suntalekhola, so you can take there help to locate it.Here is the time-table of the share taxis ( Mahindra Savari Vehicle ) that you can catch at Malbazar. Please note that vehicles in North Bengal are known by their names rather than vehicle numbers. </li>
</ol>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
a. Mahindra Savari by the name Agni leaves from Malbazar to Suntalekhola at 9: 30 - 10 am.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
b. Mahindra Savari by the name Ayush, comes from Kalimpong and reaches Malbazar at around 10 -10:30 am.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
c. Mahindra Savari by the name Agni again leaves from Malbazar to Suntalekhola at 11:30- am to 12:00 am.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
d. Mahindra Savari by the name Yusuf , comes from Lava and reaches Malbazar at 3:30 pm.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apart from the above options, you can always catch a bus directly to Samsing, and hire a car to Suntalekhola. That way you will save a lot of costs. Instead of Malbazar if you can drop at Chalsa which is just 7kms farther from Malbazar, you will get a number of share vehicles that will take you to different locations like <strong><a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2014/04/home-stays-of-north-bengal-michilingma.html" target="_blank">Jholung, Bindu, Dalgaon, Gorumara, and Lataguri.</a></strong><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A begging child follows me as I walk the busy streets in this relatively small town, avoiding poo and stumbling on trash. The bypassing traffic is an orchestra of constant honking and across the street, some cows ruminate in one of the driving lanes. Next to me, there are a group of sheep searching for left overs among the litter.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I make my way into one of the many kiosks to buy some water. The cashier looks a bit surprised when he sees me, not used to meet westerners. The look in his eyes tells me he is tired, but his curiosity makes him ask where I am from. “Sweden” I happily answered, “It’s in the northern part of Europe”, I continue. He replies with an insecure “ok” and looks confused. I pay for the water and walk back out in the burning sun. If he knew about Sweden remains unknown.</span><br />

I finish my water and start to look for a bin to get rid of the bottle. Funny enough I don’t manage to find a single one, looking like the confused tourist I am. I meet up with my local guide Ramkumar Lama, a well-dressed man who speaks eights different languages. He is going to trek with me in the hills later on, and I ask where I should put the bottle. “Put it here and eventually someone will pick it up”, he replies while pointing at the sidewalk. I put it on the ground. It feels wrong.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I meet with Sudhir Moktan, a former Gurkha warrior who gives me an impression of pure kindness and goodwill. He is the front figure of Green Revolution, a non-profit social organization with the aim to tackle the issues related to the solid waste management in Jaigaon. Among many things, they arrange cleaning days, when they pick up all the trash in the streets. Mr Moktan is considered a high profile man by the locals, as he also works with solving different social issues. We go for a walk together and he shows me around town. I can feel how the attention is drawn to us.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span> <span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We go through narrow alleys with barbed wire walls, passing by small shops and end up at the gate to Bhutan. Jaigaon is actually one of those few cities having a road into Bhutan. There is heavy traffic through the gate and on the other side, the streets are completely clean. A striking contrast. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Among all the rubbish on the streets, I keep seeing these pill charts here and there. Mr Moktan explains it’s some medicine that people use as drugs and I also learn about the alcohol issues in this town. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As we pass by a hardware store, a young man opens a conversation with us. He expresses his disappointment of the cleaning outside the building, as stores and hotels pay a certain fee every month to Green Revolution to tidy up the nearby streets. The fee should cover some salary for the workers and at this time, there are 13 people trying to cover the whole of Jaigaon.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As the discussion goes on, I am puzzled by the minimal effort the people working at the stores do to help the cleaning process. The rubbish is not really neatly tied in bags, not even put in bins or buckets, which would have been easy to collect and make the town look a lot more tidy while waiting for someone to pick it up.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Mr Moktan tells me that one solution of the situation could be to start to separate at source. If you could reuse material, people might be motivated to collect trashes as it could be profitable for them in a recycle industry.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The next day I’m informed that some department of the Indian government had phoned Mr Moktan and asked what we where doing. Apparently, they had been surveying every step I made since I got to town. A westerner carrying two cameras and meeting up with Sudhir Moktan obviously got a bit too suspicious.</span></div>

It’s impressing to see these women pick leaves at a high frequency. In one of the fields we see four men standing on a line, watching the women working. I learn they are some kind of controllers, ensuring that the tea pickers pick leaves in the right lanes. To me it looks like a one man job and I get the feeling that these jobs are invented just to keep people engaged. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As we go back to Jaigaon it’s hard not to notice all the people along the roads that seem to have nothing to do, many of them basically just sit in the shadow, staring with empty eyes.</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Back in town, I talk with Mr Moktan about the government’s involvement in cleaning up the streets, he says that there is very little help regarding the waste management, the government sees it as the region’s responsibility. At the same time I’m wondering if this could be a great opportunity to employ people. While a close by tea garden can have four controllers in the same spot, basically doing nothing, there are not a single one employed managing the solid waste and that is of an urgent matter. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We visit the beach at Torsa River, where much of the trash end up and are buried in the sand. Except the garbage, it’s a beautiful scenery with the jungle-dressed mountains fading in the sunset. Upstream, there are people bathing and washing clothes, some kids run and play in the sand. One can wonder how the future environment is going to look like for these kids. I look at the mountains, I look at all the garbage. Is there a hope for this place? I glance at Mr Moktan, he looks confident.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">It was a tough decision for me to leave such a promising industry of IT. That was so obviously the demand of time. It was obviously a shocking news for my friends and family. <span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;">One big reason was that I was going back to my village. </span><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;">That is a long story to recite, but today I see the same situation from a different perspective.</span><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;">The rural sector has today become a field of uncountable opportunities providing enough space for innovations in different sectors of development. Such innovative approaches seldom can have any opportunities in the urban sector. Rural tourism is one such</span><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"> big industry. It provides the opportunity to combine almost all the industries of development to come into a single concept with all its viable objectives.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5; font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2016/08/the-best-travel-packages-of-bengal_86.html" target="_blank"><< Rural tourism destinations of west bengal>></a></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;">There has been a dramatic change in the mainstream flow of Tourism sector's conceptualized demand. So, there is a sudden rush in the industry to focus more on the rural sectors. This is in order to support several socio-economic and socio-ecologic projects. In contrary to all the schemes and projects implemented by the Government and private investors for urbanization of remote destinations, the industry now focuses more on protecting such destinations from urbanization syndrome.</span><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"> Apart from the Tourism industry, </span><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;">there are also many other organizations that have taken these initiatives as major steps to work on the social and environmental issues internationally.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"> So, Rural Tourism has now become a major development program for most of the international organizations working on holistic developmental issues of the world. Social development, economic development, and ecologic development are the three main components. They all measurably support the concept of holistic development through Rural tourism.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><br /></span></span></div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><span style="font-size: large;">How Rural Tourism helps in the social development of rural areas?</span></span></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Rural tourism works mainly on the basis of the community effort. The benefits are preferable to be enjoyed by if not equally, then at least shared, in community level. <span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"> </span><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;">It just not relates to providing accommodation and food to the travelers, but has many other indirect services that are inter-related to each other. This way a social mobilization takes place involving not individuals but a host community. The host community includes both direct and indirect beneficiaries. The direct beneficiaries are always the host family. They are the homestay owners. The indirect beneficiaries are those who serve indirectly following the objectives of rural tourism. The examples of indirect beneficiaries are organic fruits and vegetable growers, grocers etc. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><br /></span></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><br /></span></span> <span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5; font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2015/10/women-empowerment-through-rural-tourism.html" target="_blank"><< Read : Women empowerment through Rural Tourism>></a></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><span style="font-size: large;">This diversity of work involvement encourages social bonding and also generates the sense of collective responsibility in the society. Rural tourism is also all about conserving the richness of ethnic culture, tradition, and heritage of a destination. It plays an important role in the social development of rural areas.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span> <span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><span style="font-size: large;">How Rural Tourism helps in the economic development of rural areas?</span></span></h2>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #f5f6f5;"><span style="font-size: large;">Rural tourism does not only refer to the traditional tourism. In today's classified definitions of tourism, it can also include all the possible types of tourism. Some good examples are business tourism, medical tourism, adventure tourism, voluntourism, educational tourism, etc. It means that rural tourism can act as a single window promoter for all the possible <a href="https://www.careeraddict.com/career-development" target="_blank">employment sectors</a> in the rural areas. This will further create self-employment and promote various other sustainable income generation schemes.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The role of rural tourism in ecologic development:</span></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The concept of rural tourism is to promote tourism in a way that it sells the comfort of nature in its pure form rather than any artificial modification. The most important goal of rural tourism is to enhance the roles of the community. Their roles are conservation and preservation of their natural resources. The environmentalists of the world have made it clear that the initiatives taken by the regulatory approaches alone can seldom maintain the required level of ecologic balance. The real stakeholders are the community who traditionally have been living in a close relationship with nature. They follow customary and traditional rules that indirectly help in the conservation of nature. The concept of rural tourism is to create a strong sense of environmental awareness and the realization among the community. The best example of this is the revival of such traditions and customs.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Due to the alarming issues of environment, the concept of rural tourism has also opened a new stream of research and development sector for career specialists. This new stream has shown many possibilities in the future. The same concept can develop a better linkage with the urbanized world. This will again create employment in both the rural and urban sector. </span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">"Note : " On the hunt for stories" is an innovative kind of journey that is first of its kind in West Bengal, where the writers from all around the world can meet up and travel together to explore the stories in its most chastened form. The journey was first published in the month of September, and now after the first journey, it has become an ongoing plan for the writers who couldn't make it this time. So, for the second journey, the writers can start sending their profiles so that the dates can be scheduled that will be commonly convenient for all other writers from different parts of the world. For reading more about the journey please check the link that was published earlier named </span><a href="https://meaningfultravelindia.com/meaningful-journeys-india/travel-as-a-writer/" style="color: #4d469c; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;"> " Travel to Hunt for Stories"</span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now please read about the first journey that started from 27th Feb 2015 - 9th March 2015 :</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Finally, the day arrived after a long wait. As this was the first ever type of a journey especially focused on all creative souls like writers and story lovers, I was quite skeptical in the start whether I would find people who share my thoughts. Then I knew the world is big to seek your endless desires, but also too small when you find them. I found writers and photographers, film-makers and more sending me emails to know about this innovative journey exploring unheard stories and capturing the unveiling moments that were seldom explored. With few writers, the dates were scheduled and the first of its kind journey began to make it an ongoing journey in future for all the writers from all around the world. So here I elaborate the destinations that we explored on our hunt for Stories :</div>

Mr T.N Ghising is renowned for his most beautiful Orange Orchard in the whole District of Darjeeling. Spread in almost 7-8 acres of sloped terrains, the Orange Orchard has many other concealed natural beauty that has been enhanced by Mr T.N Ghising and his family's laborious hands. The stay was arranged at his homestay named Orange -Villa and were accompanied not only by his family members but also his friendly pets Brutus, Bruno and more two cats and two dogs. The house is a dream home for those who love the solitary ambiance surrounded by beautiful orange trees forming a perfect farm house.</div>

The Orange Story: </h4>
The Northern Belt of West Bengal and the adjacent areas are mostly covered with Orange Orchards that significantly reveals the historical impact of Mandarin Oranges that perhaps came through the Ancient Silk Route. Today, due to lack of proper Government Support and reliable research institutions many of the Orange Orchards have been abandoned by the community. This is because of low productivity and diseases that have ruined the legendary story of prosperity that economically strengthened the tribes of foot hills of Himalayas. Fortunately, the charm can still be devoured in its shrunken state in this lovely home of Mr T.N Ghising who proudly calls himself " An Experienced Orange expert". The stories about Oranges recited by him was fascinating, that strangely is unheard in the are that dominantly recites the stories of Tea, the fruits of which are seldom enjoyed by the people of hills. Directly or indirectly it measures the economy of huge companies and thus the GDP of Darjeeling District in its true face is isolated from the real economic measurement of Hills.<br />

The cloudy Takdah Cantonment : The History of East India troops</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
The hunt then took us to a beautiful town that was once the cantonment area for the early British Troops who entered India through South- Bengal conquering over the Nawab-of-Bengal Sirajuddullah. The lusciousness of old Tea gardens that still hold their glory, the ancient Bungalows that once stood as the residence for the British Officials and the remains of Military Barracks is all that has made this small town. The clouds rising from River Teesta, and slowly climbing the mountains of Sikkim, Kalimpong, and Darjeeling is an enchanting sight that exclusively is seen from Takdah. The areas now have few beautiful homestays especially providing accommodation to travelers who either love cloud Photography or just want to enjoy the beauty of Darjeeling staying away from the urban culture.<br />

The Confluence of River Teesta and River Rangeet:</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
River Teesta influences the foothills of Himalayas in a divine way as the Mount Kanchenjunga does to the tribes of Himalayas. The name "Teesta" derived from the language of Lepcha Tribe is often mentioned as the deity goddess of Himalayas. The beautiful tribal story behind River Teesta is the confluence of River Teesta and River Rangeet often recited by many old people of the areas. It is a romantic story depicting the chastened love, patience, belief and the triumph of two lovers who are Teesta ( The lass ) and Rangeet ( The lad). The story tells how the two lovers prayed for years to Lord Shiva to get the blessing to become together forever, where Lord Shiva granted them this blessing that is still today seen in the form of the confluence of two rivers.</div>

The Gardener and the Orange Grower's art :</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After spending and exploring the stories of Bada Mangwa it was the time to visit the garden and orchard, decorated by nature and a lit of artistic hands of Mr T.N Ghising. Mr Ghising proudly and also a bit sadly described the great works of a deceased social worker who was also an anthropologist named Dr Sunita Gurung whose Research works on Orange production blessed the farmers of whole areas of Darjeeling. Unfortunately, the saga could not go further as she left the world at the mere age of 42. Her works can still be seen and her family still follow the culture of Orange Growers. Her memorial still remains as a silent spectator of all the problems the orange growers are facing today in North Bengal. Mr Ghising now also invites agro-volunteers who can stay and work in his farm to provide some help to other farmers of North Bengal by their expertise and research works. The details about the Orange Orchard Volunteer Plans can be found at the link - <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2016/02/volunteer-travel-programs-for-north.html" style="color: #4d469c; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">Orange Orchard Volunteer Plan </a> . The garden is just a paradise for writers, isolated from the artificial world into the depth of nature's own creations with few modifications like a writer's house with a single room, tree house for meditation and many more.</div>

The story of Bada Mangwa ended with many pages to be filled by us but in the same time opening its way for other writers to explore the depth of its culture and many other concealed stories that we left buried in our hearts and minds.<br />
<br />
Our Next Destination was Pedong, which again brought us many unknowing facts and stories about Silk Route that I will certainly write about in my next blog under the series of this unique travel plan " On hunt for Stories". I will appreciate any comments and questions about the next schedule of this trip made for writers where interested writers can work together with me to fix a date that will again be convenient for all other writers.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">You've heard a lot about Neora Valley National Park, and if you haven,t just dig out </span><a href="https://meaningfultravelindia.com/2016/05/the-best-jungle-tours-of-india/" style="font-size: x-large;" target="_blank">what is so special about Neora Valley National Park? </a><span style="font-size: large;"> Neora Valley National Park, being one of the most important and little-explored bio-diversity regions of North Bengal, has very less trekking routes in comparison to others. Recently, because of tiger spotting, many of the trek routes are restricted by the wildlife department. Still, there are few routes through which you can get into this forest and enjoy its beauty. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In the previous posts we have mentioned the options of <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2011/08/rhododendron-trek-rachela-trek-neora.html" target="_blank">Rachela Trekking through Neora Valley National Park</a> and the only one of its kind <a href="https://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2015/02/river-trekking-at-neora-valley-national.html" target="_blank">Neora River Trekking in Neora Valley National Park</a>. There is another option that you have seldom heard about. It is named as Mulkharka lake trek. The trek route can both be used as exit and entry route. The only difference is that at the entry point you cannot trek beyond Mulkharka Lake. In contrary, if you are getting down from Rachela Trek then you can use this route as an exit point.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Lingsey is a small village that surprisingly falls under the territory of West Bengal. The surprising fact is that due to the road communication problem, you have to enter <a href="https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwivnd74oMrYAhUER48KHQ0xBHoQFggoMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FRhenock&usg=AOvVaw0god5dJkCreb3zAV9mohr6" target="_blank">Sikkim Rhenock</a>, and then again enter Lingsey that is West Bengal. Lingsey in the tourism map of West Bengal can be named as one of the <b>rural destinations of Silk Route circuit</b>.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Forget about what you read in the travelogues that promote West Bengal Tourism, they're so obvious. Needless to say, Singaras and hot Gulabjamuns rule the month of January. Inquiries increase from the tourists demanding heaters and fireplaces in the rooms and that's all you care about. Precisely, you don't have much to do while traveling to North Bengal in the Month of January, but is it? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, there are some interesting facts that can warm you up even in the chilled weather of January. Whether its food, adventure workout, or drinks and Barbecue, <b>January in North Bengal</b> has its own charming bells to tune you. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">
Vacation and get- together Period:</h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This will be the post -Christmas period and also post-harvest period. Farmers would be enjoying their yield, schools and colleges would be closed. The closure of schools and colleges is a big thing in Hills. Most of the children from villages return to their homes from hostels as because all of them are forced to leave their hometown for even higher secondary schooling. Homestays would be complete with families and this will be the season of get-together even for your hosts. </div>

All you know is that Bengalis dig for the best mom-recipes of Pithe- puli during this time. For readers from Kolkata this may sound familiar, but of course, if you are coming from other states, do not forget to taste these <b>little known sweet dishes of West Bengal</b>. Makar Sankranti is also celebrated in the hills of North Bengal. It will be certainly fascinating for you to watch it if you are staying in one of the <b><a href="http://www.meaningfultravelbengal.com/2016/08/the-best-travel-packages-of-bengal_86.html" target="_blank">homestays of north Bengal</a>. </b>This festival can also be named as Yam Festival in the hills of North Bengal. Not many of the people know much about the types of Yams that can be found in the soil of North Bengal.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
As the location is untouched with any of the modern luxuries, there are certain things, the nature lovers should be prepared of :</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. There is no electricity, so be prepared to use lanterns and torches.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. The last point where the vehicle will drop you is around half an hour walking distance far from the location. So, get ready to do a little trekking to reach here. However, the trail is easy and moderate for even the amateur trekkers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. As the nearest village is on the other side of the mountain, feel free as you would be alone in the jungle only with your friends. It means that you should bring all your necessary items along with you. There are no shops, no houses and only nature around.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. The accommodation will be tented giving you the view of the waterfall. So be prepared to spend your night under the canvas roof amidst the green forest.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. The area is spread across 9 acres of land surrounded by Neora Valley National park, so please do not try to walk around without the instructions of Guide. There are no fences of demarcation showing National park area and this area, as the area is a complete forest. So unknowingly you may breach the trespassing laws of National Park. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So welcome to Mouchuki - a new destination for adventure lovers.</div>

<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
For All the Siligurians Who More Often Check-Out than Check-In:</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
How many times it has happened that someone one from Kolkata has boasted about exploring more destinations of North Bengal than you? The famous Hindi proverb hovers inside your head " Ghar ki Murgi Dal Barabar<span class="">". </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO3R3KUsXlJprPjGBemdGsYx9HTYz59YJi7LipwL33ZMCjHkg1pA9YOqbKdMa737DbeZZVb3p-Cha2-miibDUnGouFfhMfaXa2q3XcrxRbD5yFNJcHHnKnS894VE63icUeFtJwVbJ4BbI/s1600/WhatsApp+Image+2017-04-13+at+08.54.37+%25283%2529.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO3R3KUsXlJprPjGBemdGsYx9HTYz59YJi7LipwL33ZMCjHkg1pA9YOqbKdMa737DbeZZVb3p-Cha2-miibDUnGouFfhMfaXa2q3XcrxRbD5yFNJcHHnKnS894VE63icUeFtJwVbJ4BbI/s400/WhatsApp+Image+2017-04-13+at+08.54.37+%25283%2529.jpeg" width="400" /></a><br />
<a name='more'></a><span class="">So, forget about the hard earned and begged leaves, you can still keep those to check-out, and use what you have as privileged - weekends. This article is specifically targeted for those who have the shortest way to reach the most beautiful places of Darjeeling and Dooars. These may not be the best accommodations of Darjeeling and Dooars but certainly, they give you an adventurous experience that you can never get in such a short time. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The destinations and activities mentioned below have been specifically chosen to keep in mind the distance from Siliguri. Most of the destinations can be reached within 2- 3hours drive from Siliguri. The longest stay would be of one-day tented accommodation far from the sonorous and disturbing metro life. It would be an immediate booster for your wrecked mind to get rejuvenated every week. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

You can always go for boozing and smoke anytime in Siliguri. Now to give it the background music of nature's solitude, you can even do that by approaching the nearest forest or tea garden. What makes the difference here is that you will also be going for some physical activities. All the lazy sloths may feel awkward about it, but what are friends for? The list of activities are given below:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">
1. River and Rain: </h4>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Please be ready to get wet and carry some cough and cold syrups or some alternatives.</span></h4>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">
2. Muddy and Boggy:</h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Childhood days have arrived. Well, a 10 Rs Ariel detergent Sache will work it out.<br />
<br /></div>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-xuOMgOzWx2n0Oqv8ujLGHMqCpfgwyyF6h3S3X8U3ymNEax2j8m7fLHx6p67OcCpyDF5ZZaktQY9TRHt3uHc7Um0rqir9nAbtRJOckN5_DjbBrqQV-YLbz9lpJojDLMRxAwTsfxWxbfU/s1600/WhatsApp+Image+2017-04-13+at+08.54.37.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="529" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-xuOMgOzWx2n0Oqv8ujLGHMqCpfgwyyF6h3S3X8U3ymNEax2j8m7fLHx6p67OcCpyDF5ZZaktQY9TRHt3uHc7Um0rqir9nAbtRJOckN5_DjbBrqQV-YLbz9lpJojDLMRxAwTsfxWxbfU/s320/WhatsApp+Image+2017-04-13+at+08.54.37.jpeg" style="cursor: move;" width="211" /></a><b><span class="">3. Man vs. Wild:</span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Do not presumably get scared. You won't be fed with insects and crawlers. This just means that you will go through a bit wild experience exploring the forest in a more local and primitive way. This will be an opportunity to learn from locals about many things about forests. Some examples are medicinal plants, wild yams, and fruits, etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">
<b>4. Sports and Adventure:</b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There will be basics of such activities. Trekking, river crossing, rock climbing, etc.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<b>5. Date with Nature:</b><br />
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apart from all the fun, there will be moments when you will feel the closeness to nature studying butterflies, plants, and birds with the help of Local Nature Guide.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">
<b>6. Dizzy and Jazzy:</b></h4>

brilliance of nature and makes you investigate the pulchritude in the midst of
quietness. It is amazing to go on a trek, nonetheless, there are various
essentials that should be taken along, particularly on higher elevations. A
powerful outing depends a ton upon how you do the preparations for it. On the
off chance that you are in like manner needing to leave on a trekking trip, we
have a few tips that you should review while packing or planning for one. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="TextBody" style="line-height: 137%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-IN" style="font-family: "bitstream charter" , serif;">Ok, we agree that you are one devoted trekker who loves to speed
through the positive, unfavorable, high, low, smooth, harsh territories, yet
pal, ensure when you are trekking, your rucksack has every one of the
essentials pressed in. Read ahead to counter check in the event that you are

<br /></div>
<div class="TextBody" style="line-height: 137%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-IN" style="font-family: "bitstream charter" , serif;">On the off chance that you are going on a shorter trek then you
can diminish on your attire load, yet in the event that your trek is longer,
you can carry the same number of articles of clothing or even less. You'll just
need to "reuse" them dynamically or make sense of how to wash them
along the way. By reuse, we mean turn things back to front, air them out, wash
them. Whatever the best part you have open to give it longer life and whatever
your resistance level might be. To fail in favor of alert to secure against
things getting wet, put your napping articles of clothing and whatever else you
aren't wearing at the time in a Ziploc or another kind of plastic pack. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-IN" style="font-family: "bitstream charter" , serif;">You'll be packing all your stuff and carrying it on your back up
and down the mountain passes, so the size, fit and the hold of your bag on your
back is fundamental. Go for a pack that is adequately tremendous to hold the
essentials, yet not that enormous that it kicks you down and doesn't give you a
chance to walk that serenely. The size will depend upon the extent of your trek
and paying little attention to whether you will camp. Remember to bring a rain
proof article along to guarantee your backpack and other items are sheltered
even amid the harshest of storms or rains. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-IN" style="font-family: "bitstream charter" , serif;">A few treks will outfit you with impeccable, bubbled water as a
part of the organisation. On different treks it's reliant upon you to by some
methods sterilisation or clean the water you source from mountain streams or
town taps. We'd recommend you to convey a mix of a SteriPEN and cleansing
tablets or drops. The purging tablets or drops may make the water taste somewhat
unusual, yet it won't make you wiped out, that is without a doubt. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

As India can be named a land of festivals because of its unique cultural diversity, this is the peak season of Festivals in West Bengal. So, if you're travelling in October in West Bengal, you will see the extent of its beauty that you can never see in any other months of the year. You must have heard a lot about Durga Puja, and for the travellers of Kolkata, it is worthless to explain. However, the less heard and experienced part of this season is about the festivals that are celebrated in North Bengal Hills and<b><a href="http://samsingchauthary.blogspot.in/2016/06/dooars-your-new-summer-destination.html" target="_blank"> Dooars </a></b>regions of West Bengal. Not only the autumn rejuvenates the beauty in this time of the year but also brings the time of happiness and celebrations for the people of North Bengal. So, the reasons to visit <b><a href="http://samsingchauthary.blogspot.in/2015/05/the-monsoon-destinations-of-north.html" target="_blank">North Bengal rural destinations</a></b> can be many, but if you are travelling in October ,there are few inevitable experiences that the travellers should never escape while their visit to North Bengal in this time of the year.<br />

After the prolonged wetness of monsoon, and the tiresome days spent in the paddy fields, it is the resting time for the farmers to await the fruit of their sweat. The<a href="http://samsingchauthary.blogspot.in/2014/12/orange-orchard-volunteer-program.html" target="_blank"> orange orchards </a>starts to get laden with fruits with few trees already turning into a christmas tree hanging the brights bulbs of light. The winds brings with it the scent of happiness and sky slowly becomes crystal clear forming the the colour of an aquamarine that perhaps reminds the people to wipe out all the clouds of doubts and enmity and reunite in a single colour of happiness. The marigold blooms to its fullest size just letting the people to decorate the doors of their houses heralding the beauty of Autumn. Above all the most important festivals that fall in this month are the biggest annual festivals for the people of mostly all the tribes of hills and Dooars areas of North Bengal.<br />

This festivals is often related to the victory of Truth over evil. This festival is also called Dusshera in other parts of India. It is often celebrated by burning the statue of Ravana ( The demon king of the famous Epic - Ramayana).

As the summer approaches with its engorging heat, it's the time for the <strong>people of Kolkata</strong> to rush for some of the <strong>best touristic places in India</strong>. In this context the obvious choice would always be hills stations that are the renowned tourist places in India. Before going for the <strong>popular tourist destinations of Himachal Pradesh</strong>, there has always been a common trend to first explore the <strong>nearest tourist destinations from Kolkata</strong>. Sikkim and Darjeeling would always be the first preference of the <strong>Tourists from Kolkata</strong>. Following the tradition of the <strong>tourists of Kolkata</strong> there has been a slight change in their preferences of <strong>popular destinations of North Bengal</strong>, and it can be named as newer editions of <strong>tourist destinations of West Bengal</strong>. <strong>Dooars</strong> is one name in this context that has quite been a name among the <strong>Tourist places in Northern India</strong>.</div>

The name " Duar" means a door in local language and thus is related to places that are the gateway to enter Bhutan. Many people in North Bengal have a misconception that only tourist places that come under District Jalpaiguri and Kuchbehar excluding the District of Darjeeling are named as the <strong>tourist places in Dooars. </strong>The term precisely means " Gateway to enter Bhutan". The other misconception is that all the <strong>places to visit in Dooars </strong>are mostly the plain areas of North Bengal that are not suitable for summer escape due to it's warm climatic conditions.</div>

There are certainly many places in the<strong> route map of Dooars</strong> that are located in the high altitude hilly regions and have cold and moderate climate throughout the year. These places can be among the best summer and<strong> <a href="https://samsingchauthary.blogspot.in/2015/05/the-monsoon-destinations-of-north.html" target="_blank">monsoon destinations of West Bengal </a></strong>that will have more adventurous features than any other monsoon destinations of North Bengal. Many people do not consider these places as the <strong><a href="https://samsingchauthary.blogspot.in/2015/05/the-monsoon-destinations-of-north.html" target="_blank">best destinations of North Bengal to visit in July and August</a></strong>, because this is the time when most of the National Parks are declared as closed and the entries are prohibited. However, this is also the time when the <strong>Dooars Forests</strong> regain it's green lusciousness after a long dry season. This is the <strong><a href="https://samsingchauthary.blogspot.in/2015/06/love-butterfliessave-nature-best.html" target="_blank">season of Flowers and Butterflies</a></strong> for the <strong>Dooars Travellers</strong>.

A brief view of Tourism in India and narrowing it to West Bengal Tourism:</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With the change in the trend of travel, tourism in India now has flourished extravagantly, embracing all the possibilities that can be embedded into the niche of travel. As tourism in India is more about exploring the diverse colors of cultures that together bind India with a strange harmony, the only way to explore the true essence of this harmony is getting into its source rather than measuring it through any polished and trained cover of Hospitality Industry. The sources that truly define the culture of India are the rural areas of India and in the rural areas, there stand the<b> </b>homestays of India that build an individual identity of a particular culture what has been followed since ages. Not talking about the whole states of India, this change has seen a seen a greater impact in the tourist places in West Bengal Tourism.</div>

It cannot be relevant to any of the commercialized tourism units that focus on the promotional business concepts rather than reflecting the cultural heritage of the family. In precise terms, it's more natural where there are no expectations of measurable quality in the delivery but a sense of respect that is palpably abstract. Here you do not exchange your money for the best services, but you compensate. You don't make demands but curiously wait for what is to come. You can never be obvious for anything but be conscious of learning the new things. </div>

Booking a Hotel vs Booking a homestay in India:</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Regarding other services of tourism, the industry has ample of portals and outlets from where such services can be availed enjoying varieties of options. Today, with the growth in the internet market, any traveler can easily match their interests and choose the type of tourism products they would like to avail. From extremely luxurious hotels to best <b>jungle adventure</b> and wilderness resorts one can easily make a choice of services right from the comfort zone of home and plan and book everything in advance. Now, when it comes to booking a <b>homestay in India</b>, there hasn't been so reliable sources because of their remoteness and isolation from the mainstream tourism Industry. So, booking a <b>homestay </b>in order to explore the ethnicity of India is still more like a research work.<br />

Homestays under West Bengal Tourism:</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
India is a huge country. So, defining all tourist places in India that have <b>homestays </b>would be impossible so this post will focus more on the <b>homestays</b> under <b>West Bengal Tourism</b>, as this state has one of the most diverse geographies and cultural influence in the<b> tourism map of India</b> than any other states of India. It is also the gateway to North-East India and one of best locations of <b>Jungle adventure</b> for <b>adventure lovers</b>. The Northern part of <b>West Bengal</b>, because of its diverse geographical feature, has the highest cultural influence that has divided the region into different cultural zones without any similarities in between them. Due to this cultural disparity the region has developed into a destination that is more known for its <b>Homestays</b> rather than hotels and other commercial<b> tourism units of India</b>. So, for all the travelers who want to experience the best of <b>India holidays</b> and want to make it a <a href="https://meaningfultravelindia.com/" target="_blank"><b>meaningful travel</b> </a>Experience, can avail the <b>homestays of West Bengal</b> and explore the unknown side of <b>West Bengal Tourism</b>.</div>

<b><h3 style="text-align: justify;">
</h3>
</b></h3>
</div>
</div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2. Check their Facebook Pages :</b></span><br />
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most of the homestays of West Bengal are located in Rural and remote destinations, where connectivity may be a minor problem. So. they may not have their own website, but some of them would certainly have their facebook pages. Instead of searching for travel agents you can search for their Facebook pages and communicate directly with the homestay owners. This way you will feel more reliable as you will be talking with the homestay owner who will be your main host.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<b>3. Payment options: No online payment, no credit and debit cards</b> :</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The simple rule is to carry enough cash to meet your travel expenses. The rural destinations are away from the town and you may have to bear extra cost just to reach the ATM, So it's better you carry cash with you as no homestays will have debit card or credit card payment facility. For booking and confirming the room you should always make a prepayment arrangement with your hosts. This way you can stay confirmed about your reservation. For prepayment, you can always communicate with your host and transfer the required advance payment either to their personal savings account or any other account recommended by your host.<br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
4. Communicate in Simple words:</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Remember that your host is not a professional travel business owner. He or she may be a farmer, a retired person or of any other rural profession who may not know the terms used in the travel business for example Package, Plans, itinerary etc. Some host may not even be highly literate but this doesn't mean that they wouldn't know the etiquette of hospitality. For them, their cultural ways of treating and respecting their guests would be the best hospitality manners. So, whenever you have any queries with the hosts before going to such rural destinations, always communicate with the hosts in simple words and do not expect them to know everything like a professional travel consultant. They may only know about the best places of their locality, weather, and climate, etc. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
5. Always ask for local transportation :</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is because you may get lost if you hire transport services from the main towns. Like in case of homestays of North Bengal many people hire the transportation services from Siliguri, but they may not exactly know about the location. So this way you may spend your valuable time in just locating your destination. It is always better to ask your hosts in advance to organize a pick and drop with local transportation because they would be knowing more about the destination than any other transportation services. This way you will also be promoting the alternative income sources helping the rural destinations to develop economically.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">North Bengal is quite lucky to be the nearest hill station for Bengali People. Not to hop in directly to the word " Tourists", the first stereotype notion people of North Bengal hold for Bengali people are that they are the most travelling community of India. Well, why only North Bengal Hill people, this notion is probably all over the world. In general perhaps the higher percentage of the tourism revenue earned by West Bengal Tourism comes from the Bengali Tourists. So with years of tourism business that is running so well in North Bengal there are many stereotype tourists that help the hosts to determine their taste and anticipate their matching needs. Now get your senses ready to determine which stereotype tourist's category you fall in.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">It's a clear estimation without any possibilities of rise and fall. You have planned the amount and fixed it in a way you would never compromise. So, you are a budgeter and that's ethical, but the problem with you is that you cannot compromise with the standard you aim for. You negotiate with the hosts to bring down the cost and when your hosts humbly says," Well sir, We can give you another category that fits into your budget perfectly and we give the assurance that you will find it worth your price." That's such a good assistance, but you cannot compromise and you want the best of best at the cheapest price. If you're really into this category who believes in the most common proverb "Cheap and best" , then the ultimate suggestion for you would be " Cheap is never the best and the best is never cheap".</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">You are a good reader. You read lot of locally published travel magazines and articles. You always look out for the names that are described as unheard and unexplored. Well, precisely the names that you have never heard of and you take it in your list of unexplored destinations. So, that's a really proud thing for you and you say this to every one, " I always explore the unexplored". But , when you come to the real unexplored places you start seeking you urbanized comfort zone and complain with statements like , " How do people live here", That certainly makes your host think of whether you telling the truth that you always unexplored places. </span><br />

<h3>
<span style="font-size: large;">3. The Alien Foreigner:</span></h3>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In this context probably, West Bengal is only a state where people</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"> from same state act and are even treated like complete foreigners. It then becomes more strange when people from South Bengal who have already travelled many parts of India feel the difference in their own state. The above statement can somehow be considered possible because of the cultural diversity North Bengal, but it becomes more complex for the hosts when their guests act like they are not even from this world. If you are thinking what are such stupid acts being a nature lovers then here are the things you unknowingly give do that give out the message that you may be an alien:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">1 . You ask after seeing the paddy fields, " What are these plants? '. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">2. You are so excited when you see a colourful rooster as you've never seen such a bird in your life.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">3. Oh ! You've never seen such bright and big full moon.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">4. You are shocked to see the sky filled with so many twinkling stars.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">5. ...and many more, </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> ....so for you the best suggestions would be don't just spend you whole life in Bars and clubs, there is a big world outside your city or town.</span><br />

<h3>
<span style="font-size: large;">4. The Drunkard Drummers :</span></h3>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here there are two categories, the ripened and the budding.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiG6W6sYMFU4mHemaYZ3BlUILeHVmcWV14y6HOsYt90jnIusuy1GwwSJSqgvjXhjIXaWsKgW9X2B0Pd1w5rXv4chZJmtLnAtMD5J0rRK0F1aHzOVwnxXGRU8incgQuipxQ99nFTIP2Pj2c/s1600/the+drunkard+travellers.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiG6W6sYMFU4mHemaYZ3BlUILeHVmcWV14y6HOsYt90jnIusuy1GwwSJSqgvjXhjIXaWsKgW9X2B0Pd1w5rXv4chZJmtLnAtMD5J0rRK0F1aHzOVwnxXGRU8incgQuipxQ99nFTIP2Pj2c/s400/the+drunkard+travellers.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"> Ripened are normally middle- aged people who form a group, leave their families at home and make a plan to visit some silent, melancholy, naturally blessed destinations. Initially their interests about the destinations they seek for shows that they must be tired workers who want to go back to nature as pure nature lovers and want a break from all those noises, hot discussions of politics, ethics and Bengali History. Perfection never changes, so after you reach the destination, the only thing you wanted all such ambiance was to drink a lot with the group and again start the same noises you do back at your home. No new topics, stories but you bring out the same stories and start drumming it loudly in a drunk tone. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You can hardly be called a tourist, in precise terms you're a real traveller. You live two lives, one back at your home town as a strict Corporate manager and the other when you are with your digital camera and backpack. You are an IT expert and you spend more than half of the year as a punctual corporate guy involved in hard core operations and management work, quality parameters, monthly targets, team performance, client rewards and incentives, new strategies of Business Development and process management , e.t.c. You give your fullest in everything you do. Then when you swap your personality to become a traveller, people can hardly make out that you spend most of your time in the comfort zone of luxurious cabin, revolving wheel chair and elite food recipes. You adapt fully with the tough life of tribes, understanding their culture and flow with their daily life schedules without any urban demand. You surprise them with you knowledge about the names of the plans, birds, butterflies and insects, their life cycle and everything that even they have never realised. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">God knows what you want to know and what you know. All you need is a roof to protect you from rain and food to keep you going. You hate crowd and modern amenities or may be had enough of it. You just travel like a monk seeking the truth about life and salvation. You never have a proper itinerary of your travel plan. You can stay for months in one single room or leave it just after an hour of booking and paying the full price, all depends upon you present thought. It's not that you are tight with money or you can't afford it, if you find a good hosts you don't mind even paying for his or drinks and travelling costs. Above all, only you know what is back in your mind what you enjoy and what you don't.</span><br />

<h3>
<span style="font-size: large;">7. The Menu Family :</span></h3>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The only thing you are concerned about while you visit newer </span><a href="http://meaningfultravelindia.com/meaningful-destinations-india/" style="font-size: x-large;" target="_blank">destinations of North Bengal</a><span style="font-size: large;"> is the food menu chart. You always travel with you family members, and if possible sometimes you even make your cousin's family or some other relatives join you. The hosts of rural destinations find it a big problem to prepare food items for you specially in places where they do not have enough of helpers in the kitchen . The reason is that every member in you family will order some food items for their dinner and lunch. For instance here is the order of lunch given by your family :</span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8z3GDDZfzQry8ZOzYk0Kja3GjKQ-R88NoZXukY0gDvevK2GunvwjQhcGmL8Z04hLDT_ktbWo6FOC9mQzJGamaFgy6pSkxFqUEF-KWo2O1pXH4qzqFIPMrVIifG4QNC44SKnW7zSt_CnQ/s1600/6-dontreadmenu-iStock_thinkstock.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8z3GDDZfzQry8ZOzYk0Kja3GjKQ-R88NoZXukY0gDvevK2GunvwjQhcGmL8Z04hLDT_ktbWo6FOC9mQzJGamaFgy6pSkxFqUEF-KWo2O1pXH4qzqFIPMrVIifG4QNC44SKnW7zSt_CnQ/s320/6-dontreadmenu-iStock_thinkstock.jpg" width="320" /></a><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Lunch:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1. The elder son will have three chapatis with egg curry. ( Please do not put chilli)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">2. The younger daughter will have a plate of Momos with totamo sauce.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">3. Your wife will have one plate of rice with Fish, Dal and potato curry. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">4. You would want some chicken pakoras to have it as snacks with drinks and full place chicken rice. ( Please put lot of chillies)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">5. After lunch in the evening you will have black tea with no sugar, you wife will have tea with milk and sugar, your elder son will have it with both sugar , salt and lemon.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, the one thing your host would be asking your wife in their mind : " Is this how you cook for your family back at your home?"</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Can you ever imagine a couple choosing a long trekking plan for their honeymoon? Well, it's so obvious that such couples would always choose a room that is more private and lonely. With the strictness in checking the id proofs, it has now become quite a tough job for unmarried couples to find a room in the hotel room. So the best would be either to choose the destinations that is more into rural areas or to go for a trekking plan with other unmarried couples. Here there are again two categories, one who also want to enjoy the best of nature and adventure along with romantic moments and the other who would just want to enjoy the evening with drinks and a romantic night in a more lonely and natural environment without involving much in outdoor nature adventure activities. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You just think that you can buy everything with money. While walking on the road through any village if you or your wife finds a beautiful flower or a ripened fruit on the road side you just go and pluck it. You don't even think that the land along side the road is a private land and the owner have had their long months of care to make it bloom. Once you get a complain from them you never show true apologetic behaviour but try to act rich by willing to pay money. You may think that you are acting rich but precisely it is cheap for them. You ask for cultural dances, tribal dances, bonfire and show your willingness to pay any amount for it. The truth is that you are bringing down the value of a culture by commercialising it and corrupting the innocent minds of rural people. You are forcing them to sell it cheap. Just for instance can you imagine a person paying you huge money just to celebrate Durga Puja at any time he wants? Well, again there are some values that you can never buy with money.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">You just have the knowledge of books and have never been practical. You have read it in newspapers and you believe every word of it without even giving your mind an option. You see everything around you in the villages going wrong and throw your comments and remarks without putting yourself in the cause of the situation. You complain about those tribal ladies carrying head-loads of dry twigs that they use to cook food for their child, but you never complain about hectares of deforestation and its timber transported to your cities, just to meet the huge demands of industrialised goods. You want AC rooms even in a hilly region, a television, 3G phone Network, coffee shops, market and many more in a rural destination and later complain about other rural destinations that have become crowded and urbanized tourist spots. You carry a whole bag packed foods, bottled waters, cans and throw it anywhere you want , but you hate those garbage scattered all around the place in such a beautiful and naturally blessed rural destination and blame on villagers. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So, above are few stereotype habits of tourists who fill the tourism map of West Bengal, and you may be one of them, but as a meaningful traveller and a nature lover there are certain <a href="http://meaningfultravelindia.com/meaningful-destinations-india/" target="_blank">meaningful destinations of North Bengal</a> in India that are still unexploited. It's not always the hosts who should take the responsibility of a destinations but also the Travellers who build the destinations.</span><br />

On top of that if there is romance in the air, who knows nature may be too happy to bless you with the sight of few wild animals coming to drink water on the other side of the river. You can see all those just from the balcony of you room without letting the air of romance flow out. Adventure obviously, would be filled in your body and mind , but the location with only you and your beloved one with no one around relaxing beside the silently flowing Sisamara River through the serenade of chirping of birds and rustling sound of leaves with the sudden gust of wind, will make you oblivious of every type of adventure activity you normally seek for in every <b><a href="http://meaningfultravelindia.com/meaningful-destinations-india/" target="_blank">Meaningful destination. </a></b></span></div>

If you are not the one who just knows Jaldapara National Park anonymously as Elephant riding place, Watch tower booking with plastic packed chips in your hand, and the animated picture of adventure that is loved by tourists ( Well, this too is an option to choose staying at Sisamara Rhino camp), you will find it as a place to stimulate the positiveness in your life acquiring the inspiration directly from nature. This way you can build your relationship with memories created by nature. Above all does the place now seem nearly perfect for you ?</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Now when you want to visit the nearby places then there are places that you may have heard many times through internet and travel magazines, so why not add up those in your memories as well ? You can take a cab, and visit the places like the fort of king Nal at Chilapata, Buxa Tixer Reserve Museum, the queen of doors and paradise for Butterflies - Jayanti and of course Elephant ride as well at Jaldapara National Park. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">So this is all about with more to add from your side, with your own perspective. The place is just a new destination where you will find few local people serving you with their best knowledge of hospitality. They always seek for your instruction to work upon, so you can be a <a href="http://meaningfultravelindia.com/meaningful-journeys-india/" target="_blank"><b>Meaningful Traveller</b></a><a href="http://meaningfultravelindia.com/meaningful-journeys-india/" target="_blank"> </a>as well.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This particular topic becomes too complicated revealing more of its facets when it comes to be implemented in the Indian Society. The definition is quite understood in a manner that goes absolutely contrary to what truly needs to be conveyed. In obvious terms culture, tradition, customs and social beliefs do greatly impact the overall ambiance. In India some take the term " Women Empowerment" more like a shield to fight against the male dominant society that prevails through ages in the Indian society. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Keeping all such hindrances aside, the time has now come to measure the true potential women hold in the society utilizing their versatile role they truly play unknowingly. People commonly make the term " Home- Maker" more inferior as they don't see any beneficial outcome of it that can be measured economically, ecologically and socially. In order to translate this common notion into what can totally change the concept, Rural tourism can be one of the most efficient ways that can equally showcase its benefits in all those areas that have never been thought to become an important factor in Women Empowerment.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rural tourism with its ethical concept has today started to show its divine results in North Bengal that have axiomatically drawn the attention of many social initiatives. With the immense effort of many organizations ( That includes us) the growth has today reached a point that is worth to be replicated. The success behind some of the destinations of North Bengal that have picked up their fame as one of the most renowned rural destinations, for example - <a href="http://samsingchauthary.blogspot.in/p/contact-us.html" target="_blank">Samsing- Suntalekhola, Lava- Kolakham, Kumai, Dalgaon, Paren, Takdah, Chilapata, Santalabarie, Tinchuley, Bada- Mangwa, Lingsey</a> and many more, truly sounds to be more deserving specially for the women who have heaved their responsibilities more efficiently than the male members of the families.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With all our experiences on the establishment of Rural Tourism units, now we have the same initiative focused for women community members to provide them the workshops and training on Rural tourism. This initiative was thankfully appreciated by the District Rural Development Cell of Darjeeling that is also the implementing department of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Rural_Livelihood_Mission" target="_blank">National Rural Livelihood Scheme</a> of central Government that is stringently focusing on women empowerment in almost all the states of India. This first of its kind initiative was organized by District Rural Development Cell of Darjeeling in collaboration with our Organization, Samsing Chauthary undertaking the responsibility of whole training. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first targeted area that had also sent the proposal for Rural Tourism Training was Lingsey, a beautiful place located under the sub-division of Kalimpong, under District Darjeeling. Being one of the bordering area of West Bengal State, <b>Lingsey </b>is surrounded by Sikkim on all sides except and is also the first destination that falls on the way to the famous trekking of <a href="http://samsingchauthary.blogspot.in/2015/07/things-you-only-see-just-once-year-in.html" target="_blank">Mulkharka lake in Neora Valley National Park</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The training was scheduled for 7 Days focusing on the Rural Women of the surrounding areas of Lingsey. Altogether 30 women took participation and learnt the concepts of Rural tourism based on various subjects. The following resource persons helped this training program to be conducted successfully. After the completion of the training the women participants were also recognized with certificates duly authenticated by the G.T.A Tourism Department and D.R.D.C Darjeeling.</div>

Traveling through the Royal Chimney's of North Bengal..........</span></h2>
<span style="font-size: large;">My grandfather always recited the stories of the times when
Darjeeling was ruled by British. He criticized the laws of the current times
and boasted about the rigidness, punctuality and the accuracy of British rule
in Darjeeling. He said, “If any plantation area was found grazed by some stray
cattle then they measured the footprints of the cattle and then at last caught
its owners. So there was no escape, this was their way of ruling.” His stories created imaginary pictures in my
mind of white people wearing Khakee shorts, hats, boots and shiny rolls with
golden capped heads in their hands. Their Bungalows mostly built on the top of
a hill, towered the villages that served them with laborers in their tea
gardens and other small industries that made Darjeeling their summer capital of
India.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Reliving those days of their superior luxuries would really
be fascinating amidst the beauty of today’s changed Darjeeling and other parts
of North Bengal, and this thought made me pack my bags. My first number in the
list was named for tea gardens because historically tea gardens built most
parts of North Bengal.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Starting from the foothills, my first option was to explore
Fagu Tea Garden that falls next to the renowned tourism circuit of Samsing-Jaldhaka.
The tea garden located on the hills rising from the plains is the first
highlands to measure the high altitude mountains covered with heritage forests
of Neora Valley National Park. </span><br />

National Highway 31 from a place named Damdim that is just 5-6 Kms from New Mal
Railway station, I preferred a shortcut that is mostly free from the traffic of
National Highway. The shortcut way starts from MalBazar crossing a small
non-perennial stream named Gurjung Jhora. The way reaches you to a tea Garden
named Meenglass and you can start feeling the aroma of Tea leaves getting
processed inside the factory. Fagu Tea
Garden starts just before reaching a Place named Gorubathan. A rough road
climbing up in the hills through the simple village houses of Tea-Garden labourers
will finally reach you to a beautiful Bungalow built on the top, just giving
you a bird’s eye view of the tea gardens and the village. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The Bungalow now
named as “ Fagu Reserve” truly resembles the luxury one yearns in the chastened
ambience of nature decorated with the rural culture and tradition of tea
gardens that is being followed through ages without any modernized change. The
wooden floors , the old bell hanging outside and the furnishings, all speak
about the days when the same Bungalow was probably the most superior place for
the surrounding areas. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Luxury can't convince the true spirit of travelers for so long, so there are other adventurous options that one can add to such luxurious tours of North Bengal. It all begins with none other than the dense Elephant prone forest areas on the banks of River Chel and River Neora at Neora Valley National Park.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I love adventure, specially the three common things that North Bengal is amply blessed with - Forest, mountains and rivers. Exploring the surrounding areas, I found several options an adventure lovers would certainly not miss out in this luxurious travel plan . The river trekking is one such activity that can be added to the stay at Luxurious Fagu Reserve.This trek is the first of its kind in North Bengal and it starts from a nearby village named Saakham. The place is connected to Fagu Reserve by a way that goes through the deep forest which is away from the traffic and reaches you to Suntalekhola. The River Neora often called as the heartline of Neora Valley National Park flows through some of the most beautiful unknown and unseen wilderness of Neora Valley National Park. This river trekking will unusually follow the river upwards exploring the real wilderness beauty of one of the pristine heritage forests of India - Neora Valley National Park. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This trek starts from Lava which is just a two hour drive from Fagu Reserve. The trek destines to reach the highest altitude (3200 mts) of Neora Valley National Park called the Rachela Pass, that was historically a passage to Bhutan. The place also has a lake that is one of the niche tours of Neora Valley National park if one wants to avail the beauty of Frozen lakes during the month of December and January.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-size: large; text-align: justify;">I call this Trek a spiritual trek because most of the tribes believes this lake to be a divine lake, and they often reach this place with a wish. The local tribe believe that the lake fulfills the wishes and hence they consider this place a sacred place. The trek starts from Gorubathan, so the Fagu Reserve has all what an adventure lover would like to add to a luxurious tour.</span><br />
