দার্জিলিং নয়! কার্শিয়াংয়ের পাশেই এমন পাহাড়ি গ্রাম? Chimney Village | Offbeat Kurseong Tour | North Bengal Tour ****************************************************** Chimney Village Kurseong is one of the lesser-known offbeat places near Darjeeling — and in this video, I take on a challenge to travel from Kolkata to Chimney Village on a ₹1,000 budget during the August monsoon. Starting from Sealdah, I boarded the Darjeeling Mail to NJP, continued towards Siliguri and Kurseong by shared cab, and finally reached Chimney Village near Kurseong. What followed was rain, mist, pine forests, mountain views, an incredible homestay experience and a completely different side of North Bengal travel. 🏔️ CHIMNEY VILLAGE, KURSEONG Away from the usual crowds of Darjeeling, Chimney Village offers a peaceful offbeat mountain experience surrounded by pine forests and spectacular Himalayan landscapes. During this Chimney Village tour, I explored: 📍 Chimney View Point 📍 I Love Chimney View Point 📍 Chimney Heritage Garden 📍 Historic British-era Chimney 📍 Mountain viewpoints 📍 Pine forests and village roads 📍 Local surroundings and village life 📍 Early-morning Chimney village walk The August monsoon completely transformed the landscape, with clouds, mist and greenery covering the mountains. ****************************************************** 🚆 KOLKATA TO CHIMNEY VILLAGE Here is how I travelled from Kolkata to Chimney Village: Sealdah → NJP → Siliguri → Kurseong → Chimney Village 🎟️ Darjeeling Mail Sleeper Class: ~₹400 (round figure) 🛺 NJP → Tenzing Norgay/Siliguri Bus Stand: ₹150 🚕 Siliguri → Kurseong shared cab: ₹500 for two front seats (Normal Siliguri - Kurseong share cab fare ₹150) (Cab Contact Number: Pratik Thapa: 9382338331) 🚕 Kurseong → Chimney Village shared cab: ₹100 The challenge was to complete the journey within ₹1,000, but the actual transportation cost came to approximately ₹1,150.
