Tramride by the Side of Maidan

The place that you will love to explore if you are born with Photographer’s instincts is the Maidan of Kolkata. Being located at the centre of the city this has access to all kinds of transport facilities. The place is surrounded by some of the historical landmarks of the city like the Victoria Memorial, the Shahid Minar, Fort William, Eden Gardens, etc. Sunset behind the Victoria Memorial is something that the budding photographers of Kolkata would readily die for.

Nandan Visit

The most favorite hangout spot of all the intellectuals of the city is undoubtedly the area of Nandan movie theatre. Personally speaking, my favorite addakhana is the stairs of Rabindra Sadan. Having fun at that area might bring you some bonus gifts in the form of hostoshilpo mela (handicrafts fair), Little Magazine Fair, concerts, exhibitions, or anything cultural.

So guyz…hope to see you soon at some hangout corner of Kolkata…
