Natun Kamalabari Satra
নতুন কমলাবাৰী সত্ৰ
Another satra of the Kamalabari tradition, which also preserves dance and music, located near Kamalabari town and easy to reach.
New Kamalabari Satra lies beside the main road leading from the Kamalabari ferry landing into the island. It is a branch that split off from Kamalabari Satra in the 19th century, and its compound follows the classic layout, with a central namghar prayer hall surrounded by monks' quarters. This satra is known for preserving Sattriya dance and Borgeet devotional songs, and performances are held during festivals. On ordinary days it is quiet. It can be visited in the same half-day as North Kamalabari Satra, which is about 2 km away. Admission is free. Please remove your shoes before entering the prayer hall.
