When was the last time you took your siblings on a road
trip? This Bhai Phonta, you must take the opportunity to escape the city and
drive to Jhargram. Located around 140-150 kilometres away from Kolkata, this
town is nestled within dense forests, living up to its name — Jhargram. Known
for its famous Rajbari, the town's royal palace is a major draw for visitors.
Originally built by the Rajputs, this well-preserved structure exudes a
Rajasthani aesthetic in the heart of Bengal.
While a day trip can offer a memorable experience, consider
booking an overnight stay at the Rajbari to indulge in a night of grandeur and
royal treatment. If you're visiting just for the day, prioritise the Rajbari,
but if you have extra time, explore the Jungle Mahal Zoological Park and Jhilli
Lake. Treat your sibling to this scenic drive and enjoy a well-deserved break
from city life — because you both deserve it!
