Images of Kolkata

First, some typical Kolkata street scenes:




This is the Kalighat Kalika, a major temple to Kali, the Indian goddess of chaos and destruction
This is Victoria Memorial Hall, a memorial to Queen Victoria from when Kolkata was the capital of British India

Some photos from the Mother House, the headquarters of Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity:
