ROYAL BENGAL: THE RAJBARI, BAWALI

Rajbari Bawali Palace Zamindars Old world architecture India Acme Voyages

A 300-year-old palace belonging to the Zamindars, Rajbari will be a delightful itinerary on your visit to the erstwhile Capital of India during the British Raj. Here, among the slowly crumbling temples and generous 'pukurs' (small fish ponds) Rajbari Bawali, invites you to experience the tradition, culture and cuisines of the Zamindars of Bengal.

Lush lawns, a tranquil poolside, old world architecture, and delightful cuisine make this a terrific stay, just outside of Calcutta. If you want to discover a snippet of untold village life in the heart of east India, this is the place to come home to. What's more? The Rajbari is full of artistic accents and is a platform for local cultural performances such as the wandering Baul musicians who sing spiritual songs and devotional hymns.
