Explore some of the oldest temples and experience the tradition of myth making by the artisans of Kumartuli with The Ganges Walk team.

Kumartuli is one of old neighborhoods of North Kolkata where the ‘coomors’ or potters settled. Kumartuli derives its name from these artisans. They had migrated from distant places of Burdwan, Nadia and Howrah during the late eighteenth century. These artisans are the reason of the cities sculpting prowess. The clay idols of Gods and Goddess that they make are not only famous in Calcutta but all over the world. 

The ticket includes guide fees, water, tea, snacks and breakfast.

We advise you to wear comfortable shoes/sneakers for this walk. You can bring your sun glasses and Cameras.
