ARSHINAGAR – A Mirror Village

Nearly 200 years ago, the mystic poet Lalan Fakir envisioned Arshinagar - a place where all live as neighbors, reflecting each other’s essence. Inspired by this timeless dream, Arshinagar is more than just a retreat; it’s a way of life. Here, we nurture nature by planting trees, educate less privileged children, and find serenity fishing in our ponds. At Poncho Byanjon, we revive forgotten Bengali flavors, savoring the tastes of tradition. Beyond our sanctuary, we explore nearby villages, uncovering historic ruins - and a reflection of ourselves. At Arshinagar, there are no guests, only neighbors. As Lalan beautifully said: “Barir Kache Aarshi Nagar, Sethay Porshee Bosot Kore” (Near my home lies a City of Mirrors, where my neighbor resides)
