“The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see.”
G. K. Chesterton However, to a great extend, it’s up to the destination as to what it shows irrespective of what the traveler or the tourist would like to see. To say elaborately, just think of the city of Kolkata in Eastern India and feel relaxed for it’s the duty of Kolkata Tourism to make your vacation in this City of Joy a successful one. As a tourist what are you—Art connoisseur, heritage hunter, party man or history lover? Whatever your desire is, Kolkata Tourism is ready to fulfill.
