SUNDARBAN West Bengal Largest Mangrove forest in the world Best place to visit in Kolkata
SUNDARBAN - The Mangrove Land
Sundarbans, the very name casts a spell, and exploring this national park is every wild lover’s dream.
Home to the Royal Bengal Tiger, the largest delta in the world awaits you. It is an UNESCO world heritage site-native at its fullest. It is a perfect destination for weekend getaway from Kolkata.
It was actually named after a mangrove tree called Sundari, which translates to beautiful. And no one can deny the fact of this park being nature’s own land and being blessed with bountiful flora and fauna.
Created by the confluence of the Ganga, the Brahmaputra and the Meghna, the Sundarbans is the largest delta in the world spread across the mouth of Bay of Bengal, from India to Bangladesh. On the Indian side are 102 islands, of which 54 are inhabited.
