Puja Parikrama: My Durga Puja Celebration



Some Special Puja Pandals:

North

1. Bagbazar Sarbojonin : Traditional "Daker Saaj". Good "crowd management". The "Acachar er dokan" outside the pandal was more attractive to me.
2. College Square : Pandal resembles to Jaipur's Brahmin's Mandir
3. Mohammad Ali Park : The theme was "global warming" this time.
4. Beadon Street Sarbojonin: The puja where I was a member of the committee. The pandal was inspired by the structure of Gundicha Temple of Puri
5. Hatibagan Sarbojonin : Pandal made of "Jhata"
6. Uttor Kolkata Sarbojonin: Seeds of different vegetables were used to decorate the pandal

South

1. Ekdalia Evergreen: Glass work inside th etemple
2. Madox Square : Traditional Puja. Attraction is something else.
3. Badamtola Ashar Sangha : Theme is Lithograph
4. Babubagan Sarbojonin: I have not understood what the teme really is. Some people said they tried to create solar system inside.
5. Falguni Sangha : Founded by Uttam Kumar, though small, this pandal also attracted me for its revisit of Sahaj Path

East

1. Sribhumi Sporting Club : The theme is communal harmony
2. lake town : Traditional jute industry works have been used throughout the pandal
3. Telengabagan : Panchokoshi Mandir
4. Ultodanga Sarbojonin: Traditional pandal made of bamboo, bamboosticks and Tin.

I think you have missed the pujas of Dumdum park.In averege ,i think, this year those were even better than the ones in South Kolkata.
Sadly,I missed out Maddox & all the pujas of Behala this year.My feet failed to comlpement my passion for pandal hopping.
My favorite in 2008 are :Badamtala & DumDum Park Tarun Sangha.

What are yours??
