If you like quiet time surrounded by flowers and greenery, then make a stop at New Town Eco Park located 7.3 mi (11.7 km) from the center of Kolkata. Want to stretch your legs some more? Head to Eco Urban Village and Salt Lake Central Park, both nearby.
If you like haggling for the best price, you might want to head out to New Market in Dharmatala and take in the atmosphere. Splash some more cash at Sudder Street and Camac Street.
Whether you want to hunt for sand dollars or smell the fresh air, Mandarmani Beach is a spot you might want to check out, located 4.1 mi (6.6 km) from central Mandarmani. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Digha Beach.
Dakshineswar Kali Temple is just one of the places to see in Barakpur, so why not enjoy the other things to explore during your travels? Stroll along the lakeside or visit the monuments in this culturally rich area.

JW Marriott Hotel Kolkata
8/10 Good
"I booked for a Dinner inclusive room, however could not avail as I reached at 10:40pm and its only valid till 10:30pm. These terms and conditions should be mentioned upfront. Secondly, the all day dining option is only available till 11pm, that too in a 5 star hotel. I have never seen anything like this ever."
"The check-in process was frustrating. The hotel’s payment system did not accept international Apple Pay, despite it being widely accepted at the airport and even within the hotel’s own café. This resulted in multiple unnecessary transactions and delays after a long journey.
More concerning was the persistent noise disturbance. There were loud birthday parties with DJ music that carried straight through the walls into the room. I was unwell during the stay and had to make repeated calls to the front desk to address the issue. While the duty manager was responsive, the matter was never meaningfully resolved, and there was no follow-up from senior management despite a request to escalate to the General Manager.
This lack of ownership and guest care stands in stark contrast to industry standard for five star properties.
I will consider giving this property one more chance, but this experience has certainly impacted my perception of the Hyatt brand as a loyal customer."
