Calcutta: Attractions and more...

Calcutta glitters with its beautiful architecture such as the Victoria Memorial, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Hooghly Bridge, Marble Palace and many more spread across the city.

The Botanical Gardens is a welcome treat for the tourists. Another attraction here is a 250-year-old banyan tree with long stretching shades.

The Kali Temple is an ancient temple and a famous landmark in Calcutta. Throughout the year, devotees throng the temple and its streets which are lined with retail stalls selling religious artefacts.

The Indian Museum is one of the oldest museums in the world. It houses an exceptional collection of antiques, ornaments, fossils, mummies and Mughal paintings. Most notable are the fossils of primitive animals like dinosaurs and the exotic collection of meteorites.
