Div Chawk of Kalimpong Military Station : A tourists' i

As and when the tourists cross the Div Chawk of Kalipong Military Station while going Durpin Monastery, Teesta View Point and Kanchanjunga View Point , the eye catching wall paintings around Div Chawk attract the visiting tourists. But Sri Deepak Subba, the painter's brush with enamel paint depicting the local art and culture of the region are no less than Picasso if he born in big cities and his art works are projected by the journalists of the region. Our artists are in dark just like pearl inside the cell in dark unfathomed cave in the ocean bears.    

 

Heritage building of Kalimpong : Gauripur House

Gouripur House used belong to the eponymous zemindars of that name. Its claim to fame is that Rabindranath Tagore spent some of his last holidays here. The building was damaged in a fire, which has left it desolate and in an unkempt state. 

This is where the Noble Laureate Rabindranath Tagore would stay whenever he would visit, his very favorite summer retreat . Kalimpong. So many famous verses have been penned from here.  

There is a marvel engraved and pasted on the wall of Gauripur House in Bengali script that "এই ভবনে রবীন্দ্রনাথ ঠাকুর  বাস করেছেন এংব ২৫ বৈশাখ ১৯৪৫ কবিগুরু "জন্মভূমি " কবিতা আকাশবাণী মাধ্যমে জীবনটা আবৃতি করিছেন "

 So its really sad to see this place almost in ruins. The government needs to look into the matter and immediately restore the place to its former glory. Although it is a heritage building of Kalimpong which is one of tourists' destination visit if it well maintained. No bengali come forward to restore this heritage building but the conscious and  Kalimpong  loving  citizens must think and act to restore this property.

Mr. Hiren Shaha , the crazy traveler of Pune knelled down by seeing the marvelous engineering design of the bygone era of indigenous lepcha.

Traditional fire place of tribal people where all the family members sit around the fireplace to take food and warm up their bodies in winter month.

When lepcha ladies dry and barbeque meat it's greasy smoke formed in the form of crystal black diamond in the bamboo drying tray above fire place.
