Known as the "Stone Church" (Pathure Girja), it was the first Anglican cathedral of the city. The compound is essentially an open-air museum of early British history in India.

This is a fascinating and often eerie stop. It's one of the oldest non-church cemeteries in the world, with impressive colonial-era tombs and mausoleums.

College Street (Boi Para)
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
This is a book lover's paradise and a true intellectual hub of Kolkata. Spend ample time browsing through the countless stalls, where you can find everything from rare old books to new releases.
