Cooch Behar is a unique city in West Bengal, known for its planned layout, heritage buildings, and vast water bodies called Dighis. Once the seat of the Koch Kingdom, it is often called the 'City of Beauty'. The city is dominated by the Cooch Behar Palace, but its charm lies in every corner—from the white Madan Mohan Temple to the historic Jenkins School. The city's culture is a blend of Bengali and tribal Koch-Rajbongshi traditions. Cooch Behar is one of the few places in India that was a princely state until 1949 and has successfully preserved its royal identity. The streets are wide, and the city is surprisingly clean compared to other Bengal towns. The local cuisine, featuring fresh fish from the Torsha river and unique sweets like Sarbajaya, is a delight for foodies. It serves as the gateway to the Dooars and the borders of Assam and Bhutan.
