Kolkata's colonial grandeur, the Sunderbans' mangrove tigers and Darjeeling's tea slopes.
West Bengal stretches from the Himalayan foothills in the north, where Darjeeling's tea estates cling to steep slopes with Kangchenjunga on the horizon, down through the Gangetic plains to the vast mangrove delta of the Sunderbans on the Bay of Bengal — home to the Bengal tiger's only mangrove population. Kolkata, the state capital, remains India's great colonial-era cultural centre.
