ย ย ย Read moreI visited this place to attend art exhibitions and handicrafts mela organised for the event "The Barefoot College Tilonia Comes To The Town". It was beautifully organised and everything was available for everybody to explore plus purchase. The event was cost-free to attend. The handicrafts mela had very creative and informative stuff not just in terms of clothing or decorations but for technical uses as well such as home appliances coming straight from the rural areas and presented by the inventors only. Enjoyed the whole event. The art presented there was really pretty. People present at the centre were also helpful and very polite.
The Triveni Terrace cafe is inside this centre only and is open for all. The whole centre stays covered with sunshine, light and air during the day time (well - ventilated). It was open to explore for all. Plus in case you feel you want to grab some food and maybe don't want to explore the Triveni Terrace cafe at the moment, then there's another option - Bengali Market, which is very near to the Triveni Kala Sangam (at walking distance).
Will visit the cafe and the centre soon for another such fun...
