Anticipation is reaching a peak in Kolkata as the State Fisheries Development Corporation (SFDC) prepares to inaugurate the long-awaited Nalban Nature and Aquatic Park this Friday. Managed by SFDC’s dynamic managing director, Soumyajit Das, the park is designed to be a hotspot for fish tourism.
According to Das, the park promises a unique experience for visitors, featuring live angling displays and an opportunity to discover a diverse range of fish species. Culinary enthusiasts are also in for a treat as the park will offer a delectable array of fish dishes to tantalize the taste buds of its guests.
In a bid to enhance the overall experience, the Nature and Aqua Park will boast comfortable cottages for overnight stays, mirroring the successful setup at Eco Island in New Town’s Eco Park. Visitors can revel in a night’s stay and indulge in morning boating and fishing activities, as highlighted by an SFDC official.
Alongside the park inauguration, the SFDC has planned additional attractions, including a new SFDC outlet and a food corner at one of the NKDA markets in New Town. Furthermore, live fish vending vehicles and the new administrative building of Nalban food parks are set to be unveiled on the much-anticipated Friday at Nalban.
The State Fisheries Department has been diligently working on extending the Nalban boating complex towards the Sector-V end of the Nalban bheri in recent years. This strategic move aims to draw in a larger influx of visitors seeking an enriching and enjoyable experience at the Nature and Aquatic Park.
The grand unveiling of the Nalban Nature and Aquatic Park signifies a significant milestone in the state’s efforts to boost tourism and showcase the rich aquatic heritage that Kolkata has to offer. As the ribbon is cut and the gates swing open, residents and tourists alike eagerly await the opportunity to immerse themselves in this exciting new venture.
