Morning visit to flower market. Later, you can enjoy an included tour of Kolkata, more familiar to the British as Calcutta, a vast and sprawling port in the province of West Bengal in the north-east of India. Unlike Delhi or Agra, it is not an ancient city, but was founded by British merchants in the late 17th century, and was the capital of India until 1911. The city retains many reminders of the Raj, including St Paul’s Cathedral and the Victoria Memorial, Kolkata’s most imposing and monumental marble edifice opened by the Prince of Wales in 1921. Many of the old buildings of the British era in Park Street now house government offices. Despite the undeniable overcrowding and pollution, Kolkata has a fascination all of its own, and its inhabitants are known all over India for their sense of humour. Overnight stay.
