Enjoying Kolkata's visual delights

Nicknamed the City of Palaces, Kolkata is a lively and enjoyable Indian metropolis. The city is one of the most popular local tourist destinations thanks in part to its cultural heritage. A trip to Kolkata would be incomplete without visiting a mixture of Indian and Raj attractions. Some of the most notable places of interest include the Howrah Bridge, the House of the Thakurs, Victoria Memorial, Park Street and the Indian Museum. 

The spectacular Howrah Bridge is an imposing abstraction of steel cantilevers. The architectural icon is one of the world's busiest bridges. Victoria Memorial is a vast magnificently proportioned structure reminiscent of the US Capitol. It features the Kolkata gallery and the central chamber. The memorial is surrounded by majestically reflecting ponds to create a picturesque view.
