Welcome to another episode of Bead Ventures, where we take you off the beaten path and into the heart of India’s lesser-known natural wonders. Today, we explore the tranquil and enchanting Chintamani Kar Bird Sanctuary (CKBS), nestled in Narendrapur, South Kolkata – a lush, biodiverse retreat often called “Kayaler Bagan” by locals.
This 17-acre sanctuary, named after renowned sculptor and conservationist Chintamani Kar, is a peaceful refuge for over 150 bird species, countless butterflies, insects, reptiles, small mammals, and unique flora. Once an old orchard, today it's a protected urban jungle where nature thrives quietly beside a bustling metropolis.
