Durga Puja pandal-hopping routes

Seeing Durga Puja properly is a marathon, not a sprint. Pick a route in advance and spend the evening enjoying pandals instead of working out where to walk next.

These 20 routes are built from where the pandals actually are, not from broad area labels. Each one groups pandals close enough to walk between, then orders the stops to keep the walking short. Distances and times are real.

From a blank evening to a plan

How to plan your pandal hopping.

Five steps that turn a long wish list into a route you can actually walk.

  1. 01

    Pick an area

    Keep the evening compact. A route inside one neighbourhood beats crossing the city twice.

  2. 02

    Choose your pandals

    Mix the big theme pujas with the older community ones. Add them from the map as you browse.

  3. 03

    Check what is around

    See the nearest metro station and the walk from it, plus toilets along the way.

  4. 04

    Order the stops

    Let the planner sort them so you walk the shortest sensible line rather than doubling back.

  5. 05

    Follow it on the night

    Open the navigator, tick pandals off as you go, and see live crowd reports before you join a queue.
