The river Kopai, flowing through Bolpur. It is a tributary of the Mayurakhi river, which in turn joins the Hoogly, and finally merges into the Bay of Bengal.
“Beyond a distant river somewhere
On the edge of a thick forest somewhere…
You’re finding your way,” – Rabindranath Tagore

The clouds hover grey and black over the horizon. And you look mesmerised, at the visual spectacle that only Nature can orchestrate.
