The cultural capital of India is the best way to describe Kolkotta. Talented, colorful and very emotional, the people of Calcutta (Kolkotta) have so much to offer, it is difficult to express the feeling through one image. It is truly the "City of Joy".

Calcutta was the capital of the British Raj till 1911. The city is governed by a communist government for the past 3 decades. Kolkota is the city of Tagore, Subhas Chandra Bose, Mother Teresa and Satyajit Ray.
