The
largest metropolis in India, Calcutta is a vibrant city on the move, volatile
and unpredictable. The Gateway to India, till 1912, and the capital of the Raj
in India, it still bears the Victorian imprint on its streets and structures.
A city just about ready to burst at the seams, Calcutta is home to more than
10 million people. The Ganges (called the Hooghly in Calcutta) is still the
inspiration, as it was to Job Charnok, East India Company agent, who reached
the shores in August 1690, to found the city. Calcutta, after London, was the
British Empires second city.
It
is the commercial nerve-centre of the East, with major industrial plants, textile
mills and corporate units. Regal edifices, grubby alleys, bustling bazaars,
elegant hotels, people from all walks of life - Calcutta has it all.| Luxury Tour Packages | ||||||
