| Park Street Metro Station, Kolkata |
Day 31 Thursday 10/10/2019 Kolkata (Final Day)
1) Inside the Park Street Station, I saw a tourist-friendly Metro map with pictures of major tourist attractions giving the names of the closest Metro stations for tourists to visit in Kolkata. This was a great help to me as in my final day in Kolkata, I had 4-5 hours of spare time hopefuly to visit a few more tourist attraction places before returning to hostel to get ready for my transport arrangements from Park Street to Kolkata Airport. The names of 8 tourist sites highlighted in the Metro station for ease of travelling by Metro rides are:
2) Of the 8 touristy places highlighted by the Metro station, our group had visited 4 of them during our first 2 days in Kolkata ie Victoria Memorial, St Paul's Cathedral, Sahid Minar, & High Court. So my focus and based on the spare hours I had, I was able to visit 3 of them ie Mahajati Sadam, Kali Temple & Marble Palace. I forgo my visit to Jain Temple & Jorasanko Thakurbari due to time constraints.
1) Mahajati Sadan, M.G. Road, Kolkata - an auditorium located in Chittarajan Avenue, Kolkata, this auditorium is regularly used for Bengali theatres & seminars in seminar hall. The auditorium is an important part of India's freedom movement.
2) Kali Temple, Kalighat, Kolkata - took a Metro to Kalighat station & walk for 1km via side lanes to this temple - a Hindu temple dedicated to the Hindu goddess Kali. One of the 51 Shakti Peethas. Kalighat was a Ghat sacred to Kali on the old course of the Hooghly river in the city of Kolkata.
3) Marble Palace - due to flooding at the front gate, I was unable to enter the Marble Palace but took a few pictures from the outside of the side gates for rememberance ! I had also took pictures of flooding in side lanes leading to the Marble Palace ! Marble Palace is a palatial 19th century mansion in North Kolkata; one of the best preserved & most elegant houses of 19th century; famous for its marble walls, floors & sculptures !

ReplyDeleteReally fascinating read! I love how this travel journal captures India through small, candid moments rather than just typical tourist highlights. The “words of wisdom,” street scenes, and everyday experiences—from chai stalls to local life in places like Darjeeling and Kolkata—make the journey feel authentic and immersive. It’s these little observations that truly define travel memories, not just the big landmarks .
