The Headquarter of RamacKrishna Mission is a place by the river Ganges where anyone would find solace in his agony, solitude in his puzzling moments amidst a serene surrounding.

Liked everything here.15-20 mins Boat ride from Dakshineshwar. Clean and well maintained premises. The "Math", Bank of the river, everything is just great
