212 km northwest of Kolkata. Shantiniketan is a quiet town where Bengalis like to spend their weekends. It was here that Rabindranath Tagore founded Visva Bharati University, whose teaching is based on the relationship between man and nature. A veritable link between Western and Eastern cultures, its avowed aim is to establish the ideal conditions for "world peace". Young and old from all over the world come here to study dance, Indian music, painting, languages and science. Along the way, forests and rice paddies will make you forget the hustle and bustle of the big cities.
