About Kolkata
British colonial capital left architectural legacy throughout city. Literary heritage from Tagore influences cultural life still. Poverty visible in ways that shock first-time visitors. Durga Puja festival shuts down city for days. Rickshaws pulled by humans still operate controversially.
