Interest and love for travel is constantly increasing. So I visited the heritage buildings of Rabindra Kuthibari along with the natural scenery, all the mind-blowing cultures. In addition, there are different types of food. Welcome to today's blog to enjoy the old-fashioned building design and the method path.
Through today's blog, I will explain in detail the route from start to finish and how to get there and how much it may cost. There will also be some tips on how to visit the place on a small budget.
Since there is a chance of rain almost every day, it would be better to choose a beautiful day or a bright day because the sky condition is not very good at this time. Overall, the weather and brightness of today's day are quite good. Since this journey is about 25 kilometers away from home. Therefore, it would be better not to take travel items.
You will need to have some necessary things with you. With friends who are ready to go out. Since the place is 25 kilometers away from home, the best vehicle to go to the place will be an auto. It will cost about 100 to 150 taka to go around the place alone.
7 to 8 people can easily go in an auto. It may take an hour to go by auto. You will reach Shilaida Rabindranath Kuthibari in one to one and a half hours after leaving in the morning.
On the way, that is, Kuthibari, you will see a bridge almost near Kuthibari. The bridge is quite big and it is a very old bridge. Apart from enjoying the beauty of Kuthibari, it would not be bad to spend some time on this bridge. You have to cross the bridge over the Gorai River to Kuthibari. The cold wind coming from the river will make your body feel chilly. Spending some time on this bridge over the Gorai River will refresh your mind.
After an hour and a half in an auto, I finally reached the first gate of Rabindranath Kuthi Bar. First, this beautiful gate will be seen and this set is the largest gate of this Kuthibari. Rabindra Kuthibari is beautifully written in Bengali on the gate.
The gate is locked. Although some of the beauty of the Kuthibari is visible from the outside. I have been to this place many times before. Every time I come to visit or wander around the place, the place still seems unfamiliar to me. There is a ticket counter next to the gate.
First, you have to buy a ticket for 20 taka from this place. If you are a student and have a card with you, you can enter for free. Buy a ticket for 20 taka and enter inside.
After entering, after walking a little way forward, you will come across a place which is very old and surrounded by tradition. The name of this building is Gitanjali. Gitanjali is the best of Ravi Tagore's most popular and medal-winning novels. It is great to see a building named after such a famous poem.
After going a little further, you will see a stage made for various cultural ceremonies. Although these stages look normal now, when this place is used for ceremonies and various cultures, the appearance of the place is different.
There are two big palace-like buildings here. The two buildings look great and there is a big field in front of this place. Perhaps these buildings are suitable places for those who come from far away to visit the place and spend time in this city or pass by for a few days.
Apart from enjoying the place, there is a golden opportunity for travelers coming from far away to visit various heritage and historical and tourist places in this Kushtia district. This building of Kuthibari, i.e., a hotel, has the facility of staying. Since the house is 25 kilometers away and it is a day's journey, it is easy to go home after roaming around the place and enjoying its beauty.
As time goes by, its natural beauty and the place are becoming quite attractive to see. The weather is changing and it seemed like it would start raining a few times. Although fortunately, I was able to enjoy the place in sunny and bright weather.
The house has retained many old and traditional features, although maintenance work is going on every year to maintain its beauty. Poet Ravi Tagore lived in this place and wrote all his poems, books, novels and more in this place. Although he has houses in many places, he was a resident of India.
Still, he ended his life writing in this hut. The people and government of this district have retained the memory. There are several gates before entering the house. There is a strong desire to see everyone around.
This is a gate on the right side of the house. Entry is closed through this gate. The beauty of the house can be enjoyed from this place. The beauty has been enhanced by the touch of flowers on the gate. The entrance to the house is kept in the middle. The house looks the same from all around.
The place is really suitable for enjoying. The mezzanine path, the green trees, the natural beauty of this house have retained their great beauty. It is very difficult to understand when time passes while enjoying the beauty of the place.
There are four to five parts in the house where different sectors are divided. There are many heritage and historical monuments in this house, along with countless memorable pictures of Rabi Tagore and many traditions, which I will share in the next blogs.
Since the place is open from nine in the morning to five in the morning. By this time, your travel journey and enjoying everything in the house will be over. If you are thinking of reminiscing, then you will find a lot of Rabi Tagore here, which we will share in the next blog.
This is another architecture. In the olden days, people used palanquins for their transportation. The specialty of palanquins is that they were taken to the wedding ceremony, that is, who was taken to the wedding corner in a palanquin. What else is this heritage architecture trying to reminisce about people.
This house is a great beauty to see because it covers a lot of space. Surrounded by trees, green vines, leaves and flowers, the house is amazing to see. You cannot help but be fascinated by the beauty of this place from the roof. No matter how much you praise Rabindra Kuthibari, it will still be less.
This time, the beauty of the architectural design, tradition, everything is an indomitable desire to explore its history. There is a peace in enjoying everything about the place. This place has retained a beauty that everyone will like and there is no shortage of historical monuments, heritage, architecture and tourism.
After enjoying the house, you definitely need to have lunch. You will not get any kind of food in this place. However, there is a big market outside the house. Where you will see different types of small and big hotels. Apart from that, you can eat all the traditional and famous foods.
You can eat lunch at any hotel for 100 taka per person. And there are some famous foods here, including sesame khaja, kulfi malai and various types of state food. Apart from enjoying the place, eating the famous foods here is a part of the trip.
After everything is over, finally coming out and finishing the meal at a small hotel near here. I really had a great time visiting the place and enjoying its beauty, tradition and I was amazed by its beauty.
