hi frnds me a new member at KWS this was my first visit to Princep Ghat and Alipur Zoo with some different motto... At first me Sudip Da and Shamim da met in front of Zoo @ 7:15 AM by we found it to be closed... we came to know it opens at 9 AM... From there we planned to go Princep Ghat so without wasting time 1st we started walking from Alipur Zoo to Princep Ghat but after reaching Hastings we realised that its too far to walk down. after that Sudip da decided to hire a cab and reached Princep ghat. in the mean time we informed Krish Da to reach Princep Ghat instead of Zoo...when we reached Princep Ghat we met Krish Da.... then there we really had some nice snaps of nets being thrown by the fisher men at the shore.... and then at about 9.30 AM we again got back to Zoo... and at Zoo we had to wait for Subhashish Da for 10 mins....... we some how managed to buy tickets and entered.... inside the Zoo we had real good pics of Deer and some animals.... Some deers were giving such poses that u people u didn't wud not believe untill u see it.......... due to lots of grilling we were unable to point many other nice birds...... at last we met the rain at about 10:45... at that point of time we all people were hungry so shifted inside the restaurant placed in the Zoo... and we finished the tour at 11.30 AM.
And another wonderful shoot came to a end.

Both are very nice places. Thanks for sharing. If you are looking for some moments of peace and quiet in the bustling city of Kolkata, think no more and head to Princep Ghat. Built in the year 1841 and named after James Prinsep, the monument is a must visit. Built in Greek and gothic style, the ghat sees a lot of locals and tourists during the evening. If hunger pangs hit you when you are here, you can go for a steaming pack of popcorn or indulge in some spicy jhaal muri. Dominated by pleasant conversations and happy chatter, a peaceful stroll along the ghats will certainly complete your evening there. Explore more about Princep Ghat also.
