Nabadwip | West Bengal |
"The Land of Krishna Devotion"
Blanketed away in the commotion of West Bengal,
Nabadwip - Mayapur is a cluster of nine islands located on the banks
of Ganges. This place is one of those few religious shrines whose spirit of
devotion is palpable. The scattered forests, orchids and winding paths leading
to small villages give you an excellent sense of peace. With almost 200 temples
concentrated in this small rural setting, Navadwipa is God's own land, in every
sense of the term. It is unaffected by economy, industry and futile activity.
The place is untouched by tides of time and is a perfect treat for your
aesthetic sense and devotion. It doesn't matter which faith you believe in,
this land of Lord Chaitanya (reincarnation of Lord Krishna) will enthrall you
like nothing else.
Best Time To Visit
The place experiences all the seasons. The summers are
generally hot and temperatures can shoot up to as high as 40 degrees Celsius.
Winters tend to get chilly with temperatures as low as 8 degrees Celsius. Since
a trip to Navadwipa would involve heavy outdoor excursion, it's most feasible to
travel in days when the weather is pleasant. An ideal time would be in the
months of October-November and February-March. The Navadwipa Mandala Parikrama
organised by ISKCON Mayapur is especially popular among-st the devotees so do
take a look online before deciding a time of visit.
