উমাপ্রসাদ মুখোপাধ্যায়ের অ্যালবাম সমগ্র 2

"Chiradin Ami Pother Neshay Pathay Kori Hela" — this line by the poet laureate, Rabindranath Tagore, seems to merge seamlessly with the essence of Uma Prasad Mukhopadhyay. His distant thirst for exploration is extraordinary. A trip to the Himalayas once a year was a routine for him. In addition to that, he would travel here and there during the rest of the year. Just considering the events of a single year evokes amazement. His travels were as ceaseless as his ability to narrate his journeys skillfully. His travelogues are filled with detailed accounts of every region — historical facts, proverbs, legends, the beauty of the landscapes, and the people he encountered.

This book is essentially a compilation of two of his travel books: Muktinath and Alosayaar Pothe (On the Path of Light and Shadow). It is like flipping through the pages of an album, bringing to life the vivid recollections of old photographs and memories.
