"Trip to Howrah"

Howrah Experience: Howrah part of Kolkatta, is a good place to visit. Particularly Daskshineshwar temple and Belur math are the attractions in terms of popularity. People visiting Howrah must have a visit to these places in their itinerary to make it a memorable trip.

Food, sight-seeing and shopping: Food is good, but vegetarians have to get ready for nightmares as there are very less good non-vegetarian food joints available. Even though many claim to be vegetarian we need to be very careful in selecting the type of restaurant for our food. There is not a single Pure Vegetarian restaurant except the Marwari Bhojnalays near Howrah Station, that too 10 min walking distance away.

Activities & things to do: Boating in the River.

Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc: Before reaching Howrah, come prepared with list of places to visit and need to be very, very careful from touts who are the cunning foxes always eyeing our money purses and planning how to extract maximum money from us. While travelling in public transport and public places need to be very careful of our baggage and personal belongings as lots of thugs. It is quite opposite to Mumbai.
