Nice station. Wifi is also available here.

This is known as the Steel City of West Bengal. The best thing about Durgapur is its weather and landscape, they're absolutely great. The city is very well planned with the residential part at a side and the industry part is in other side. The public transport in Durgapur is better than any place in West Bengal.
