A Visit to Silaidaha Kuthi Bari, Bangladesh The Domain of Rabindranath 100 Years Back

Abstract

Wonders were waiting for me when I crossed the river Gorai of only 50 m width paying one taka and walked another 100 meter upon the flood plain of Gorai. After reaching the other bank over mainland, I came to know that it was the wrong path I opted for reaching Silaidaha. The rickshaw pullers suggested me to proceed taking the earthen route through the interior village although it took much time. I thought a little bit and decided to go forward after making a contract with a rickshaw puller for to and fro movement and one hour stay at Kuthi Bari with a round fare 170 taka.
