July 28 (TravelAndy): To make India’s West Bengal state more accessible to travellers, the state has recently launched a tourism app named ‘Experience Bengal’.

The app will provide all tourism related information along with facilities including maps and directions.

Additionally, the app will update a visitor about various districts of West Bengal and guide them about activities to be taken up. There will be information about several prominent festivals that are celebrated in the state, which will help a tourist to imbibe the local spirit.

The app will also direct a tourist to the Facebook page and Twitter handle of West Bengal tourism department, for more details.

At present, the app is available on Android phones, which is available for download in the Google Play Store.
