Kolkata To Bolpur By Car || Ep.2 || Explore Tagore's Land, Sonajhuri Haat And Amar Kutir Hensel Ghar

Welcome to Sreeank's Vlog! 🪕 Welcome back to Episode 2 of our Bolpur & Shantiniketan travel series! After spending a wonderful, relaxing stay at the Greek-themed AnnaRatna Resort AKA Ananda Resort in our brand-new Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5, we set out on Day 2 to experience the true cultural soul and earthy charm of Rabindranath Tagore's land. In this episode, we take you through the magical forest of Sonajhuri and the vibrant Sonajhuri Haat (Khoai). Walking under the lush Sonajhuri trees while listening to soulful live Ektara beats by local Bauls was an enchanting experience. We witnessed the authentic traditional Santhali tribal folk dance (সাঁওতালি নাচ), shopped for handmade handicrafts, Kantha stitch sarees, Dokra art, and terracotta souvenirs at the famous Saturday village market. We also explored the peaceful Kopai riverbanks, visited Amar Kutir Hensel Ghar for heritage handicrafts, tasted authentic Bengali village delicacies, and shared our honest driving review of the Mahindra XUV 3XO on Birbhum's red-soil village roads and the Durgapur Expressway (NH19) on our way back to Kolkata/Howrah.
