Of all the 5 times that I have visited Calcutta,I invariably end up comparing it with Bombay, Delhi and Chennai. Travel, eateries, traffic and weather are much more convenient than Mumbai. Public attitude and safety is much better than Delhi. Its notches above Chennai in every aspect. I am unfortunate that I could not find a job of my field in Calcutta, else I would have settled in Calcutta itself

calcutta is the city of joy, tagore, terissa. this place is overvelmed with culture. while being a metropolitan city it has never lost its culture. there is a touch of hearts and love in everybody. every soul tries their best to help another soul to their full extend.this is the place u want to be.
Calcutta or Kolkata is the best city worth travelling in eastern India. The people are very friendly, helpful and cultured. You simply love the delicious Bengali dishes. The british structures and modern Indian bridges, stadiums will facinate any tourist. The theatre-auditoriums, art galleries and other cultural points are very rich and attractive to like-minded paople.

Crown of Eastern British Empire
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/09/05
There were many places like the Victoria Memorial, Shahid minar and the Eden Gardens, marvelously made, showing the glory of British Empire at that time, and very well mentained.
Besides it the Great Temple of Kali, Birla Planeterium are also a must.
