About Kolkata, Shopping, and Nightlife
The commercial capital of the east and the cultural hub of the nation – that’s Kolkata. Mention about Kolkata also transports one to the second largest city in India not to mention the sobriquet attached, i.e. the city of palaces. This city was a significant base for social reformation, and during the Independence movement, it was a venue for major political programmes. An interesting fact about Kolkata is its protection from all sides due to which the British selected this destination for their trade settlements. While two and a half miles to the east lies two salt lakes, there is a creek in the north and the Hooghly River on the west. There are numerous sight seeing attractions in Kolkata; you cannot complete your vacationing in a day or two. Do plan for at least a week’s trip. Collect enough information about Kolkata attractions, restaurants, shopping, nightlife, etc. before you set out of home for this city. You will come across abundance of information about Kolkata at a travel portal.
Shopping in Kolkata is great fun. Irrespective of your budget and preferences, you can opt shopping in Kolkata in small lanes, crowded bazaars, street shops, super markets, and malls. The city is the perfect destination for the highly sophisticated as well budget conscious shopaholics. If you know bargaining, you can save a lot! There are also many fixed price shops where bargaining won’t help. Tant sarees, cotton fabric, handlooms and handicrafts are products special to the city. Shopping in Kolkata is incomplete without these items.
