Gitanjali Rail Museum - Bolpur

Very.nice museum, situated in front of Bolpur Santiniketan railway station.

Very beautiful place. Very near the Bolpur shantiniketan rail station and very colse to the road. This is the heritage place. Here you saw many old things and many articles of indian rail history . This place is very knowledgeable.

Oh it's so heartbroken ....very emotional place .... memories of Ravindranath tagore...his last journey in his saloon car

In love with place. Will visit again. This was the only museum that was open when I visited Shantiniketan. It houses a well documented past of Shantiniketan and highlights significant aspects of Tagore's life. The main attraction however is the Salon car which Tagore rode on his last journey to Kolkata. MUST VISIT.

Good railway museum .. named Gitanjali railway museum

Hello! It's forbidden to take photos inside.. Very peaceful place.. lots of unknown facts and never ti be seen photos inside the museum. Liked it very much. Highly recommend for Kids and Bengali people who love Rabindranath. Here are some of those pics.

Today we were lucky to had opportunity for visiting this wonderful place, the calm and peaceful environment will make your mind and heart complete shootheing. I never knew these many information about the legend Tagore sir before visiting this place, I am indeed gathered many information about the legend after visiting here.Thanks railway authorities for gifting us such wonderful place.

Though not much covered/explained by any tourist, but this museum is a great place to visit during your Bolpur trip. It is greatly maintained by the railway department. This place is easily seen beside platform No.1 of Bolpur station. The entry fee is Rs30 per person and photography is not allowed inside te hall. The museum is a 2 storyed building and highlighted the entire life journey of Rabindra Nath Tagore's acheivements. You may get to know about different people, who were a part of this journey. Another facsinating thing is that you may see so many pictures of the earlier image of some places of Shantinikentan, chaatimtala and other places in the picture gallery. And after minutes/hours you will be visiting those places in person during your trip. Not only the framed pictures but the teracotta designs and use of chataai for decorating some pictures is a great idea to highlight the essence of Shantiniketan. You can see the actual used items by Rabindranath Tagore like-the train coach in which he made his last journey, chair and tables etc. This place is not at all crowded. I visited there this February (2022) and we were only 4 people only to visit this place during that time. Do visit this place and support railway's effort while visiting Bolpur.
