Felt very safe. Very busy city do not go expecting peace and quiet. Bustling and not touristy. We loved wandering and walking and seeing the street life. The Victoria monument is stunning and we highly recommend a wander around the sculptures area.
It is my birthplace, my root to the city is deep. It makes me nostalgic.
Okay. People are oddly rude. Not all but some especially taxi drivers.
Nothing in particular.
Narrow crowded roads it take a lot of time to cover small distances. Comparatively more congested and not a clean city.
I had last visited Kolkata in 2013 and my wife had visited in 2000. A lot has changed but for the worse.The streets were choked with hawkers particularly, the central areas. Processions and sloganeering were the favorite pastime, it seemed.
