Bits of Kolkata

A few final glimpses of the city...

The Birla Mendeer - a Hindu temple.

A flower vendor in Calcutta's Chinatown. His flowers are mainly used as religious offerings and decorations.

Playing soccer in a public park after the rains.

Rush hour (i.e., every hour).

A Hindu temple to Kali, goddess of destruction (among other attributes).

A house on one of the main roads.

Kids on their way to school.

Bengali architecture. This is not, of course, featuring a Nazi symbol - but the Hindu symbol of good fortune.

Waiting rickshaws.

An old family house that has now been divided up by squatters.

More Bengali architecture.
