Calcutta
Though to many Calcutta conjures up images of the worst extremes of the sub-continent, visitors to the city will soon realise that this is an unfair stigma. Long considered to be the cultural capital of India, Calcutta’s local Bengali population are known for their humour, art, poetry and politics. Calcutta also has the country’s finest remnants of colonial architecture in the country and can be an extremely rewarding city to visit for those who make the effort.Suggested itineraries
