Kolkata
Kolkata is India’s largest metropolis --
overcrowded, vibrant, volatile, exciting and charming. It used to be said,
What Bengal thinks today, India will think tomorrow and of course what
Bengal thinks today, Kolkata already thought yesterday! The bastion of
Bengali bhadralok, the city of the bespectacled jhola slung intellectual is
India’s cultural capital. Today’s Kolkata is a little tired, overwhelmed by
the burden of too many people and not enough civic infrastructure. However
it is the nerve centre of trade and industry in eastern India, and the most
important city in the region.
Look beyond the squalor and you will find that Kolkata retains a certain
something that is sepia tinted, elegant and charming. You will either hate
it or love it, but you can never be indifferent to Kolkata.
