Garpanchkot Package Tour from Kolkata

A blend of Beauty and an abode of exquisite experience waits for you at the Garpanchkot Purulia. Nowadays, Garpanchkot became one of the best weekend destinations near Kolkata close to the root, nested in the Purulia & near the Panchet dam with the beautiful backdrop of Panchet hill. Garpanchkot or Garh -Panchkot was a part of the Singh Deo dynasty of Panchkot located at the southern foothills and a group of temples is still standing as mute spectators of the rise and fall of the dynasty. The temples are of different architectural styles, the principal one being a ‘Pancharatna’ temple accompanied by ‘Jor-Bangla’ type and more than one ‘Pirha’ type temple made of stone. The Pancharatna temple still carries some depleted but exquisite pieces of presumably pre-Muslim period terracotta work on its arches and pillars. 500 meters away and a bit uphill from the main ruins of the Garpanchkot lies ‘Dhara’ a perennial spring channeled through a ‘cow mouth’ made of stone. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
