What makes In the Footsteps of the Raj – Dalhousie Square Walk a unique experience ?

The British had sought to build ‘the second city of the Empire’ right here and it is this ‘building’ that we’ll show you in the course of our walk through the ‘European’ areas of what was once the capital of the British Empire in India. There are major plans to beautify and restore this heritage site with its rich and varied architectural styles.

One of our most popular walks serves as the perfect introduction to British Calcutta and gives you a sneak peek into what went into the making of the Colonial Capital of India. So prepare to whet your appetite for all things Raj.

The headquarters of the postal department of the entire eastern hemisphere.

An old tank that the British drank from and the women walked around with parasols in hand looking for suitors.

The old Anglican cathedral which is situated on the old British ground.

We see the headquarters of the East India Trading Company and then go and have tea and toast behind it at the very popular kona dukaan.
