As the capital of West Bengal in India, Calcutta exudes an aura of elegance and sophistication that is beautifully captured in this aerial landscape. The cityscape unfolds before our eyes, revealing a tapestry of architectural marvels that stand tall against the backdrop of a bustling river. The intricate details and ornate facades showcase the craftsmanship prevalent during that era, transporting us to an age where opulence was celebrated. From towering structures adorned with domes and spires to intricately designed balconies overlooking the river, every element tells a story steeped in history. The Hooghly River itself adds charm to this picturesque scene as vessels gracefully navigate its waters, leaving trails behind them. Keystone/Hulton Archive/Getty Images has masterfully preserved this moment frozen in time for us to appreciate and admire.
