Overview

There are a lot of very interesting places around Kolkata. Ideal for a day outing, some of these places are :Colonial Bengal - Bengal had been a flourishing centre for agriculture and items like handlooms, etc. The river Hooghly provided a great inroad to the European Naval powers  to come into Bengal and establish trading posts and later colonise these places. The Portuguese, Dutch, Danes and French had all arrived although the British prevailed mostly. 
Note worthy visit includes the Sreerampur College which at one point in time housed the largest library in British India. Following the withdrawal of the Dutch from India, the fort gradually fell into ruins and was converted to a lively 5-star hotel, Radisson Fort (now rechristened Fort Raichak) . The hotel has a scenic view of the river. Those who are more adventurous can make also use the Raichak jetty or the nearby Nurpur jetty and take a ferry across the. A perfect day trip or even a great trip to sleep the night here to enjoy the river in quiet leisure.
