What if the story of Bengal’s Durga Puja began somewhere other than Kolkata?
This Puja, we’re heading to Chandannagar to uncover the story of Bengal’s oldest Durga Puja tradition—and the historic house where this remarkable chapter is believed to have begun.
But this isn’t just about seeing an old Puja. It’s about walking through the city, discovering forgotten stories, understanding how the tradition took shape, and experiencing a piece of Bengal’s festive history where it belongs—in the very landscape that carries it.
Come with us as we go looking for the first Durga Puja, the stories behind it, and the history that still survives in Chandannagar.
This Puja, let’s go where the story began.
Experience curated by Dastaan Heritage Walks
