Discover
the Soul of Calcutta Calcutta is the largest city in India, indeed
one of the largest in the world. Established as a British trading
post in the 17th century, the city rapidly grew, acquiring a life
and vibrancy of its own. Its glory is still reflected in the buildings
of Chowringhee and Clive Street, know as Jawaharlal Nehru Road
and Netaji Subhash Road respectively. It is a city which leaves
no-one indifferent-fascinating, effervescent, teeming with life,
peoples, cultures. The impact can be a shock at first; the rickshaws,
cars, brightly painted lorries, trolley buses, the cries of the
street vendors, labourers hard at work on the construction of
the vast underground railway, the noise and colour of the huge
New Market, the bustle of the crowds...but soon the jumbled impressions
will sort themselves out.
