pleasure. Visit the beaches of Digha in West Bengal and Puri in Orissa,
their beauty is sure to hang in your mind for years to come.
Other major Destinations
One of the major tourist destination in East has been the Calcutta.
Calcutta came up as a major city of the region when it was made the capital
city by the East India company. Calcutta has retained the historical
splendour which is reflected in the buildings of the place. Today Calcutta
is the capital of West Bengal and one of the major port in east.
The mystical Sunderbans
The sunderban deltas are also a major tourist attraction. The great Sundari
tree (Mangrove) thrive on the silts deposited by the Ganges before it meets
the ocean. These trees form a part of the Sunderban National park where the
Royal Bengal Tigers are found. Also, the crocodile and mighty pythons have
made these deltas as their home.
The Buddhist Tourist Circuit
In this region only one can visit Bodh Gaya, Rajgir, Nalanda and Patna etc.
These places are part of Buddhist tourist circuit. Most of them are closely
related with the life of Buddha and at some places last remains of this
great preacher is kept. Thus, trhe eastern region also has many things to
offer, iteneries for some have already been made and some wait for their
turn to come.
