Bengalis are famous for lots of things – the unforeseen passions, the cheerful chaos, the primacy of emotion over all other human aspects and so many, last but not the least their idée fixe for traveling. Yes, Bengalis are indeed travel freak. From decades, a common acronym has been very popular among travel freak Bengalis’ specially to Calcuttans – ‘DiPuDa’ 🙂 Please don’t try to find out the meaning of this word in Bengali dictionary as you won’t get it 😀 This word is the combined short form of the first two letters of DIgha, PUri and DArjeeling – the three most sought after travel destinations among Bengalis; you will hardly find anyone who has not been to this place at least once in his lifetime 🙂 🙂
Digha being most nearer one is always in high demand for any weekend trip and needless to say it is crowded all the time. Those who want to avoid this maddening crowd and want to spend some quality time with friends/family in a leisurely manner – Tajpur is a better alternative. Tourists generally make a beeline to Digha for a day trip covering Shankarpur, Mandarmoni and Tajpur.
Bhag Milkha Bhag 😀
