Belur Math
On the western bank of the Hooghly River, a mere hour's drive from the pulsating energy of Kolkata, lies an oasis of tranquillity - Belur Math. Revered by people of all faiths, this spiritual haven is a witness to the enduring legacy of Swami Vivekananda, the illustrious disciple of Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa, a 19th century saint from Bengal who is regarded as the Prophet of the Modern Age. The sprawling math complex, with its pristine white buildings and verdant gardens, beckons visitors seeking solace, introspection, and a deeper connection with the divine.
Whether you're a devout follower of Ramakrishna's teachings or simply someone yearning for a break from the urban chaos, Belur Math's serene ambiance promises a truly enriching experience.
