    Q: #weekend get-aways for west-bengal rider#

    weekends are always much-awaited by me,as on weekend i get to take my ride to a place where i can stay away from city junks,be it for 2 days ,1 days or for several hours.so when i saw the thread about weekend get-aways around mumbai,my mind clicked why not make such thread for west-bengal xbhpian,so here i am trying to make a comprehensive list about those touring-spots.


    Place : Name of the place, district, common (popular) name if any

    Distance : In km which could be easily found out from google map, etc

    Type : Beach / Hill Station / Ghat / Waterfall / Religious Place (Temples) / Historic Place (Forts, Caves) / National Park (Sanctuary)

    Nearest Highway : NH2,NH6 etc.
    Best Season to visit : Summer/Monsoon/Spring/Winter/Special days or occasions

    Tips/Suggestions/Warnings : Like where to stay, history/myths behind it, what all to avoid or be careful of, etc which could be taken from Wikipedia or likes or your personal experience.

    Visual Aids : You can add a map here tagging that place along with the route taking some reference place and best part would be sharing pictures of your visit by pasting links here. You can also attach external links (if any) describing this place in detail.

    Travelogues : You can link related travelogues here.

    You are free to add any other headers apart from the ones mentioned above. More the info you can share more it would help the first timers !

                1. Mandarmani
                West Bengal
                Virgin beach (motorable)
                around 200 kms from Kolkata
                Road Conditions:
                NH 6 till Kolaghat - very good (GQ)
                then follow bad roads, with a fine stretch of 2 lanes tarmac in between.
                Hotels: ~Rs 1000 (non AC)



                2. Massanjore Dam
                Jharkhand
                Dam, forest, hills
                can take a bath in the water body there (boys only)
                around 250 kms from Kolkata
                Road conditions:
                NH 2 till Panagarh - excellent
                good roads with lot of curves follow
                CAUTION: After Siuri, taking the left turn, be extra cautious in that single way road, it is known for accidents and rash driving. Always slow down whenever you see any oncoming vehicle in your lane!
