Hello Kolkata!

  The capital of the Indian state of West Bengal is Kolkata, previously known as Calcutta that is located on the east bank of the River Hooghly. Kolkata is famous as the Cultural capital of India and labelled as the City of Joy.  The reason behind it is because people of Kolkata know how to enjoy each & every festival be it Durga Puja, Christmas,  Diwali, Eid or New Year or anything. Everyone gets into the festive mood and decorates their home, buys new clothes, sends sweets or gifts to relatives and friends. The whole city gets infected with the happiness and the lanes are decorated with lights, colourful papers, balloons etc. If someone is there in Kolkata during a festival, he or she will have the time of their lives. Then comes the world famous mouth watering Bengali food ranging from the pocket friendly Puchkas to the priceless Hilsa and Lobsters. However, majority of the crowd loves street food as it fills one's tummy without creating a hole in their pocket!...
