The first capital of the British in India, Kolkata does not have an ancient history like Delhi but retains some striking essence of British Raj in India. Tours in Kolkata will reveal some of the most striking colonial buildings in India. Apart from the evidence of the British colonization, which still persists in the city, a varied bouquet of attractions is presented to tourist on vacation in Kolkata.
Recent times have witnessed Kolkata catching up with other major cities in India to attract new-age businesses and rapidly adopting the business culture of the modern world. Kolkata is also gateway to the Buddhist Sector of East India and hill resorts of North East India like Darjeeling, Gangtok and Shillong.
