Reviews about Purulia

Wonderful place. Many areas yet to discover.

Make sure to carry enough water with you since the water available in Purulia is not purified everywhere. There is a dearth of taxis. However, buses, totos and cycle-rickshaws are available. The places of stay at Purulia are not satisfactory. The guest house I was staying at had unclean washrooms and bedding. So, make sure to check-in at the right accommodation. Also, carry mosquito repellent with you if you do not want to be a victim of mosquito bites. Purulia is a dusty place so if you are allergic to dust or have other breathing difficulties owing to it, then make sure to take preventive measures accordingly.

- The connecting train from Howrah which runs to Purulia runs on all days except for Saturday.
- The reservation to the government rest houses open well in advance, find out all the necessary details online.

Very beautiful and nice place and 2nd Derjeeling of West Bengal.

I had a train to catch at 3 and hence didn't want to travel far from Purulia. Hence thought of coming here. This was quite a nice place to enjoy nature and the greenery ..not crowded at all...no hawkers like in theme parks..just loved it.
