Khirai-Bengal’s Valley of Flower

Earth is full of scenic sites, but its quite difficult to imagine it. The earth laughs in flowers. If you have got bored with your daily busy working life and want to relax, Khirai is a great option. A day is enough to visit this place from Kolkata.

How to reach Khirai Flower Valley?

Khirai is a small village in North Mednipir district near Panskura in West Bengal. The village basically depends upon the flower cultivation. The village has also a railway station on the Howrah Kharagpur railway line. Khirai station comes after Panskura railway station if you are going from Howrah and if you are going from Kharagpur the station comes after Haur.

The suburban train takes around 2hrs to reach Khirai station from Howrah.

After getting down at the station, you can look for the location in Google Map. However, there is a shorter way. There is a small space/ road beside the railway line that passes through platform no 3. After getting down from the train you need to start walking towards Panskura.

After walking for 10 to 15 minutes, you will notice a railway bridge. Just before the bridge, you will see some steps on right-hand side.

On getting down, you will get to see the Khirai flower valley. The valley is situated on the bank of the river Kangsabati.

If you are going by car, take NH12(Mumbai Kolkata Highway) from Kolkata to reach Khirai. After crossing Khirai river bridge, you will come across a petrol pump, from their take left turn. Keep on moving on the road till you reach the base of the railway bridge of Kangsabari river.

Well, Google map will provide a much better navigation.

Khirai Flower Valley

The flower valley is spread across a huge area, it mainly consists of Yellow and Orange Marriegold, Aster Flower, Chrysanthemums.

This is not the only land where flower farming is done. The chrysanths (Chandramallika flower) garden is a bit away from the Khirai station. After seeing the first garden, walk back to the path from where you have come, but don’t get up the slope. Instead; walk under the railway bridge, you will see a small footbridge made with stones. Cross the river Khirai and walk towards left. There are few Toto rickshaw(e-rickshaw) available, you can take those or just walk for 10 minutes to reach chandramallika flower garden.

Well, being a small village there are no place to eat, so if you are planning to stay here for some hours, I recommend bringing your own food. Since this beautiful garden doesn’t have any entry fee, so you can buy few flowers from the local gardeners, which will also help them.

Best time to visit Khirai Valley

The best time to visit the Khirai flower valley is during the winter months, between December and February. If you’re looking for a quick one-day escape in the soothing weather, Khirai is perfect for you.

Plan your visit early in the morning. The soft golden rays of the sun create a magical atmosphere, making the fields come alive with beauty.

You can also come here during the evening hours and enjoy the sunset. As the sun sets, the sky glows in shades of orange, and you’re surrounded by vibrant flowers—it’s an experience you won’t forget!

Summing up

There are many different varieties of flower present in the valley. I was able to get a glimpse of a few of them, as it all depends on the season. A small trip to this place will help you destress yourself from every day hustle of the city life, spending a day here is a very good option.

My Review about Houseboats in Alleppey

0

Alleppey is also known as Venice of the east due to the clear backwaters. They are beautiful, jaw dropping and awe-inspiring. You can find more than 800 houseboats in the Alleppey backwaters. These houseboat is the main attractions in Alleppey. Here they have variety of packages and some amazing deals which you can’t say no to. Luckily I got an amazing package from Tours in India. They provide multiple night stays with sea foods and much more which no one can forget.

Like I mentioned earlier there are more than 800 houseboats which are registered under Kerala tourism. Alleppey Houseboats are updated versions of Kettuvallam boats which are about 80-foot-long. These floating homes are available for rent. The charges of Houseboats vary according to the size and quality.

You can choose your package based on your budget. I stayed on a houseboat which was available in a package of र30,000. The bedroom had AC, TV and an attached bathroom with sink, toilet and shower. There was a big kitchen with top chefs who provided some amazing and yummy Kerala style seafood which were very tempting. 

I arrived at the port in Alleppey for check-in, which is usually at noon, I suggest not to bring heavy luggage unless you are staying for multiple nights. The amount you pay for your package covers all the meals and activities that you would do in your houseboat

The Alleppey houseboat trip will give you a feel of luxury. They will welcome you with tasty coconut water. You will cruise the backwaters at about four to six hours until 6 p.m.

I recommend a cruise land houseboat which has three bedrooms that can accommodate six people. In my houseboat, the entire crew were friendly and took care of everything

You can easily book and stay on houseboats with Tours in India who provide amazing packages at a reasonable price which will be budget friendly.

My Food Experience

As a hard core foodie, one of the main things I was looking forward to was eating authentic Kerala Cuisine. Trust me you will never be disappointed with the variety of seafood dishes. The chef brought me a plate of fresh coconut meat which was an amazing snack that helped to ease my cravings.

For lunch they were completely packed with rice, mixed vegetables, river fish, sambar, cabbage, karimeen pollichathu, etc. The aroma and the tenderness of the meat makes you forget your strict diet. The river fish was so soft and tender with amazing flavours. I highly recommend the kingfish steaks which gave a wow effect to our taste buds. They provide an amazing dessert called payasam which helps to smoothen yourself. Late afternoon they provide us different varieties of south Indian snacks . 

For dinner it was like a sea food festival. We enjoyed fried tiger prawns marinated in with different spices with chapati. Along with that, they provided chicken curry, King fish and karimeen curry along with soft chapati. 

The very next day for breakfast, they gave us dosas, sambar, coconut chutney, and omelette

My Activities on Houseboat

Kerala Houseboat Activities,

In my one-day houseboat in Alleppey experience, fishing and Canoe rides was one of my favourite. On my way we passed across lots of small villages where you can see people going for fishing in canoe and even small kids are travelling in canoe and the smile that they gave was something special.

We visited Karumadikuttan temple. Karumadikuttan temple is famous for the Buddha statue known as Karumadikkuttan. Then I went to champakulam valia palli which was a 1500 years old church. Then visited canalside convenience stores which was one of the best places where you can buy freshly caught sea fishes.

One of the greatest joys you can experience while renting a houseboat in Alleppey was the sunrise and sunset between 6p.m. and 8:30 a.m., you can take a canoe ride and watch it live which is an exquisite experience. During the canoe ride you can see lot of traditional and modern style houses in those areas. 

Checking Out

It was an amazing experience under a friendly budget. After having my breakfast by 8 a.m. we cruise back to check out form our beautiful houseboat and we left at 9 a.m. and stepped out with full of memories and happiness.

Summing Up

Alleppey, a serene backwater paradise, offers an unforgettable experience. The luxurious houseboats, coupled with the tranquil backwaters and delectable Kerala cuisine, create a perfect getaway.

From exploring ancient temples to indulging in mouth-watering seafood, every moment is filled with wonder and delight. If you’re seeking a peaceful retreat, I highly recommend Alleppey as the ideal destination.

My Kerala Houseboat Experience

Last year I got a chance to spend my weekend in a houseboat provided by Jagath Cruise, which is one of the popular houseboat service providers in Alleppey. We took an overnight package. We reported at 10:00 Am atPunnamada Fishing point in Alleppey. There were many houseboats in our way and we waited for them to clear. As soon as the trip started a crew member came and explained to us about the houseboat and how it works. It was my first experience and was quite excited to explore the areas of the houseboat and the view.We passed through the most beautiful routes and the point where the boat race takes place every year. We experienced the cool breeze of the wind as we moved further. Once we reached the open backwaters, the view of Alleppey was outstanding and mesmerizing.

Then it was the time for lunch and the boat was halted at a beautiful venue and the chef prepared mouth-watering and tempting sea food dishes for us. The quality and taste of the food served was amazing and it was a wonderful experience to have lunch in such a beautiful and peaceful ambience.

After the hefty lunch we took a stroll and saw the exotic birds and watched the clouds. We got to spend some quality time with our family and friends even outside the houseboat.

Then we board the boat again and started cruising. The cool breeze was slowly turning into strong winds.We were warned to not stay towards the sides and to exercise caution. All of us sat together as a group and sang songs then later we had snacks and talked a lot. The crew was very polite and was very helpful.

Around evening we were provided with coconut water and snacks and then our rooms were shown to usby the crew. They were beautiful and very neat. They were air-conditioned and had a twin sized bed, an LCD TV, a small cupboard and mirror. The washroom was clean and tidy. They were properly sanitized.

The night in the houseboat was very peaceful. We woke up to the most beautiful view in the morning. It was cold with a calm breeze. We had breakfast and then our cruise wascoming to an end. And then the captain announced us returning to the boarding point through a different route. We enjoyed the view on the way back.

It was an incredible experience and we had the time of our lives with our family and friends. The backwater cruise is something that everyone should experience once in a life time.
