Although the Victoria Memorial in Kolkata, built in honour of Queen Victoria is a relic of the colonial British era, it’s still lovely to visit. It’s a quiet oasis from the busy and noisy city, and you will see plenty of locals and tourists walking the gardens, or visiting the cool interior.
In India, you constantly see a mixture of colonial heritage, Hindu tradition and the modern city. It’s confusing yet somehow seems to work. I suspect that no matter how often you travel to India, you’ll never fully understand India.
