Visva Bharati (meaning communion of the world with India) is Rabindranath Tagore’s vision of setting up a school along the lines of the previously existing system of gurukul. Take a walk inside the University complex and you will come across open air classrooms, with benches under the shade of old trees and a big bell hanging on an arched red frame in the corner. Do not miss visiting the Kala Bhavan (art wing of the university), done up in captivating black and white murals.
