Calcutta, IndiaGet Rating Widget!

Overall Rating: 2.15 based on 13 ratings
Calcutta is the capital of West Bengal, a state in the north east of India. Once the most populous region in India, Calcutta is now third with an estimated population of 15 million people. Situated on the Hoogli River, Calcutta is now named Kolkata, a change that took place in 2001. Calcutta is home to India’s Nation Library as well as many palaces and temples in India thus giving the city the nickname the “city of palaces.” (Add picture)

A bit dirty by Western standards, but very authentic, and come on--dirt isn't so bad. It's wonderful to be able to experience even just a little bit of what life in the majority of the world is like. Very humbling. I learned I don't know nearly as much as I thought I did. Amen to staying away from the taxis though. A very scary experience!

City of Joy!! My first stop in India. So much to see and as far as Indian people go, the friendliest and certainly the most content. One word of advice though, stay clear of taxi's.
