Kolkata, formerly known as Calcutta, is a major cultural hub in eastern India known for landmarks like the Victoria Memorial, Howrah Bridge, and Dakshineswar Kali Temple. The local currency is the Indian Rupee (INR), and most transactions are cash-based, though cards and digital payments are increasingly accepted. Prices are generally affordable by international standards, with budget accommodations and street food widely available. The weather is hot and humid for most of the year, with a monsoon season from June to September, so cooler months (November to February) are more comfortable for travel.
