      Well known as the state of Rabindranath Tagore, the Guru who has written India's national anthem, the artistic streak of West Bengal doesnot end at its lyrical music or literature. It finds its undertones extended to everthing from the Baluchari or Cotton handloom sarees, conch shell products to precious silks. Kolkata or 'the City of Joy', is synonymous with mouth watering street food, love for soccer, 'Baul' style of folk music, and centuries of Indian heritage blending effortlessly into a cosmopolitan culture. The fragrant mangrove forests of Sundarbans are the habitat of the famous West Bengal tiger. The state comes alive with colors and festivities during Durga Pooja.
