A Guide To St. Paul's Cathedral, Kolkata
If you are traveling Kolkata, you cannot miss the majestic **St. Paul's Cathedral**. Standing tall at 247 feet (75.3 meters) high, it looks surreal in appearance. This **white-colored cathedral** is the first in India, and is rich in history, culture, and religious relevance. Being one of the landmarks of Kolkata for more than one and a half-century, it is also the most excellent example of **Gothic Revival-style of architecture**, which has withstood two earthquakes so far. This colossal building, with its central tower inspired by Canterbury Cathedral’s Bell Harry Tower, reminds you of the colonial times. It also resembles the Norwich Cathedral with three Gothic stained glass windows, along with two frescoes in Florentine Renaissance-style, built over eight years and opened in 1847. For more information, check out our guide to St. Paul's Cathedral, Kolkata, India.

Guide To National Library Of India, Kolkata
Kolkata, fondly known by its former name Calcutta, was once the political and intellectual capital of the British empire in India. While this vibrant city in West Bengal may not enjoy the same level of affluence, its effervescence remains the same.

While there are many reasons for this, exposure to education and a libertarian school of thought can be considered the prime ones. No wonder it is home to National Library Of India, the **country's largest library** and **repository of public records,** touted to hold **more than 21,00,000 books, e-books, periodicals, maps, public data records** and more. It was opened for public use in 1953 and has since been a treasure trove of literature in various regional and foreign languages. Check out our guide to National Library Of India, Kolkata, to further understand why you must visit this mammoth institution.
