Kolkata, the capital of West Bengal in India, is a port city that served as the capital of India from 1833 to 1912. While not as popular as New Delhi and Mumbai, Kolkata offers a multitude of attractions that make it a great destination for your next vacation.
As the largest city in India, Kolkata was once the center of British colonial power in the country and held significant importance for the British Empire, second only to London. As a result, the city is filled with British relics that can be explored. Kolkata boasts several popular landmarks, including the Eden Garden Cricket Ground, the third largest cricket stadium in the world, and Salt Lake Stadium, the second largest soccer stadium globally.
Kolkata is renowned for its rich cultural heritage and is often referred to as the cultural capital of India. The city is home to Hindu temples and other religious sites, some of which also have historical ties to the British era.&nbsp;
Tourists from around the world flock to Kolkata to witness the grand Durga Puja Festival, a celebration dedicated to the worship of Goddess Durga. Additionally, there are other fascinating tourist destinations in Kolkata, such as the Tagore Museum, The National Library of India, and the Kolkata Book Fair, which is the largest book fair in Asia.
When visiting Kolkata, be sure to indulge in the local cuisine. Don't miss out on trying Rosogolla, a popular sweet dessert. The city is also known for its vibrant street food culture, with delicacies like puchka, singara, kachori, and more available throughout.
Make Kolkata your next vacation destination and experience the charm and diversity this city has to offer!
