Digha is a one-stop destination for families that look forward to a fun weekend. The landscapes of Digha can also give you the joy you feel in places with little human influence and a largely unspoiled experience.
Beerkul was the original name for the area where Digha now stands. In Warren Hastings' writings (1780), this place was referred to as Brighton of the East. In 1923, an English merchant named John Frank Snaith moved here, and his writings gave the area a lot of prominences. He persuaded West Bengal Chief Minister Bidhan Chandra Roy to transform the area into a beach resort. Near the Old Digha Main Gate, there is an old church. Alankarpur Digha is another name for this location. In New Digha, a new mission called Sindhur Tara has been established near Amravati Park. It is a Church where one can pray for the well-being of one's family and loved ones. Booking a local van rickshaw is the best method to get around. There are various places to visit that provide mental rejuvenation, such as Tajpur, the Odisa Border, and Science City.
