What a lovely thread...describes the city very well. Being a Kolkatan, I invite you on behalf of every Kolkatan for a repeat visit. Probably, during the winters this time......

I love Kolkata, but let's not go overboard!

Hey, Sagarneel, don't forget to read my posts on Sikkim today. I just saw you are also a Sikkim fan. I finally got writer's cramp from telling the world about our travels.
