Kolkata in itself is a rich cultural city where dawn and dusk seem more than philosophical. The sheer presence of life and fun in the air have bestowed this city its colonial nomenclature – ‘The city of Joy’. The sight of Howrah Bridge and the freely flowing waves of Hooghly River have inspired poets and filmmakers alike so much so that this place has been popular since decades ago. Another addition to this much talked about Hooghly experience is the pleasure of cooking exotic dishes while riding through simple boat on the river
Kolkata in itself is a rich cultural city where dawn and dusk seem more than philosophical. The sheer presence of life and fun in the air have bestowed this city its colonial nomenclature – ‘The city of Joy’. The sight of Howrah Bridge and the freely flowing waves of Hooghly River have inspired poets and filmmakers alike so much so that this place has been popular since decades ago. Another addition to this much talked about Hooghly experience is the pleasure of cooking exotic dishes while riding through simple boat on the river waters. Boats are easily available on the banks of river Hooghly from where anyone could board a nice boat required for some boating. The boats are generally loaded with essential ingredients and stuff required to prepare small meals on the go.
Nothing could beat the fun of enjoying a plate full of instantly cooked fish fired, noodles or something as basic as a warm omelette while dancing along the waves. You could enjoy the culinary terrain for a while and then conclude your day on the river completing a whole ride thrugh the two banks and coming back to the shore. Clicking nice photographs is another way to relish these fond memories made during your Hooghly river trip. Music lovers could also bring their guitar or any other musical instrument and make good use of the perfect ambience to recite a song or discover along new musical notes.
