Lost in time at the Victoria Memorial, Kolkata ποΈπ€
Built between 1906 and 1921 in memory of Queen Victoria, this white Makrana marble marvel blends British and Mughal architecture beautifully. From the Angel of Victory up top to the 25 galleries inside, every corner whispers stories of colonial India, rare paintings, manuscripts, and artifacts.
Strolled through the 64-acre gardens, past the calm lake and bronze statues, feeling both the weight of history and the lightness of a breezy Kolkata afternoon πΏβοΈ. The museum inside brings the Raj era to life, while the evening light-and-sound show adds its own magic.
A must-visit for history lovers, art souls, and anyone who wants to see Kolkataβs grandeur up close. Grateful for this walk through heritage.
