Embark on the Eternal Echoes of Kolkata: A Heritage Odyssey

Blood once stained the marble floors where power and faith collided under Kolkata’s boiling sun. Every stone along these old streets hides an untold story waiting to startle or astonish.

This self-guided audio tour leads through the city’s soul: from the echoing halls of the Indian Museum to the austere grandeur of Calcutta High Court and the shimmering domes of Tipu Sultan Mosque. Let secrets leap from the shadows as you uncover what most never hear.

Who sparked riots in these corridors, forever altering the city’s destiny? What priceless artifact vanished one rain-soaked evening, never seen again? And why did a sudden hush fall over the mosque on a sweltering May afternoon in 1926?

Move beneath colonial facades and smoky minarets as Kolkata’s fevered past pulses all around you. Each stop layers history with suspense and awe.

Ready to pull back the curtain? Begin your journey and see Kolkata in a new, electric light.
