Purullia is rich natural habitat. Every small village has possessed some unique natural habitat. In this post I am going to show you some marvelous snap from Boronti, Muradi and Bero.There was a lake in Boronti which attract lots of intellectual people from all corner of Bengal.

Sun rise and sun set is the best time because the whole cloud colored in reddish. Boronti surrounded by lake and hills is 225 km far from Kolkata. I prefer small untouched natural beauty, where there is less crowed. Less crowed means you can enjoy the natural beauty from inside your heart.

Lake is also attracting anglers for fishing. Boranti’s forests covered with palash follower during winter, which make Boronti most attractive picnic destination. Home stay is bet option in the area you can also book cottage available near lake. I can suggest hotel or guest house available in Adra or Raghunathpur or in Purullia. You can reach here by train from Kolkata .You need to get down in Adra station.
