The Second City

Posted by Nerdyy

The city of my birth and my first two decades or so of life, was also once called the Second City of the British Empire, with classical colonial remnants still dominating the landscape. Here are some glimpses.


Raj Bhavan formerly the residence of the Viceroy of India

Victoria Memorial - dedicated to (of course) Queen Victoria

General Post Office - a classic domed structure
The Howrah Bridge - any movie shot in Calcutta will have this somewhere

A couple of non-building shots:

Ram Teri Ganga Maili Ho Gayee ....

SPRING ! Yellow Gulmohar
Time to bid adieu to India and start my long trek back home - again through Hong Kong :D
