As a traveller who loves to explore a new city, I find that the best way to really get a feel for the place is by using public transportation, so during my recent trip to Kolkata, India, I decided to explore the city using various modes of public transportation. I visited both the central bus station and the train stations.
The people in Kolkata are friendly and welcoming. They are always willing to help you out and show you around the city. However, the traffic in Kolkata can be quite chaotic. The streets are always busy, and there are always people and cars everywhere. The buses and trains are always crowded, but they are a great way to get around the city.
Exploring Kolkata by public transportation was an exciting and overwhelming experience. It allowed me to see the city in a way that I would not have been able to see otherwise. The people, the traffic, and the energy of the city were all overwhelming at times, but it was an experience that I will never forget.
Central Bus Station
The central bus station in Kolkata is one of the busiest places in the city. It is always crowded, noisy, and full of life. The buses come and go at a rapid pace, and it can be difficult to figure out which one to take. However, once you get the hang of it, it is a great way to get around the city. The people at the bus station are friendly and helpful, and they are always willing to assist you in finding the right bus.
Train Stations
Kolkata has three main train stations: Howrah, Sealdah, and Kolkata Terminus. Howrah Station is the busiest of the three, and it can be quite overwhelming. However, the train system in Kolkata is extensive, and it is a great way to travel around the city and the rest of India. The train stations are always bustling with people, and it can be difficult to navigate through the crowds. However, once you get on the train, you will find that it is a great way to see the country. The overnight sleeper trains are particularly comfortable and a great way to save money on a hotel.
