Calcutta  After the Tour

Calcutta: A Motion Promenade

In terms of experience, Calcutta/Kolkata simply is without equal - the richest place I know.

It’s hard to quantify this metropolis, but there is such best quality and polish that it deserves to be a world capital of culture, decadence, superemployment, and collective celebration  on the side of beauty– be that tea drinking, flower markets, foodstalls, libraries or pujas.

Superlatives  as  defined by  a maximum life force duly honour and celebrate this city.  I’ve set out a program to expand, invigorate and vivify your senses – much like a superchai!
