Trust me to add on a cemetery on to the list. South Park Street Cemetery was indeed on a list of must-sees in many travel guides. It's a lovely, serene place to walk in if you wanted to escape the noise that makes up the bustling streets of Kolkata. I dare say, that it's also a perfect spot for reading and perhaps even for self-reflection. We also did a brief visit to the Victoria Memorial, but as you can see in the photos below there weren't many people. Another space for some quiet, but of course also dependent on the time of day and week.

A mangrove forest area where the Ganges ends into the Bay of Bengal, Sundarban made it to our list as we were optimistic about seeing tigers in the wild. It ended up being the joke of the couple of days we spent there. If anything, all we saw was tiger food running around in the shape of wild boars. The most memorable part of our stay here though, was definitely the body of water right outside our accommodation. Not only was it the water source to our taps in the toilet, but also the water source to do dishes and laundry (and who knows what else). You're right to assume that, we the city-dwellers did not bath or shower the two days we were there.

From Sundarban, we took a train to our final destination - Bhubaneswar. Besides the temples and the art village we visited, the five-legged cow standing in the middle of the road was the highlight for us.
