Recently I visited my native place in West Bengal at the end of January’ 2013 and during my stay I had an excursion with my friends and relatives to a place called “Dhamakhali” which is basically located in 24 Pargana District of West Bengal, around 80 kms away from Kolkata.
My friend Abir took initiative to be driver for the entire journey, in fact we took his car for the excursion. It was of course a long drive, we reached the place almost in the mid day and after having lunch in a small dhaba, we took a small boat actually the specialty of Dhamakhali is to have boating on the river of Dhamakhali which joined with Bay of Bengal. It was believed that, once long years ago there used to be lots of crocodile in that river and on the both banks of river there used to be Bengal tigers. Local people say that now-a-days sometimes all of sudden a leopard is visible by chance.
We had a nice boat journey in winter evening. One must take break from the busy schedule and go out to such places to get real refreshment and adventure. There are so many options in life to enjoy each and every moment in order to survive peacefully in today’s life.
