The station and its markets
One of the busiest railway terminals in India pours commuters into the city here every morning, and the wholesale vegetable and fruit markets beside it feed much of Kolkata. It is a place to see the city working rather than a place of monuments.
Did you know
- The wholesale markets are busiest in the hours after midnight, when produce arrives by train and truck.
