Our next stop on our Kolkata day tour is Belur Math, a vast 40 acre property that is situated on the west bank of the Hooghly River in Belur. Belur Math is not only a well-known centre of worship that is attended by people of all religions, but it is also frequented by non-religious people because it provides calm and serenity that soothes the soul. It is also known for its architecture, which unifies the art elements of Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism.

Belur Math engages in a variety of activities, including providing medical care, education and employment for women and underprivileged classes, as well as different charitable, spiritual, and cultural events.

The next stop on the one-day Kolkata tour is not a typical tourist attraction but rather a sacred location where Mother Teresa resided, served humanity selflessly, and ultimately found her final resting place.

In addition, Mother House is home to Mother Teresa's grave, which receives a lot of visitors who come to honour the great person. It consists of Mother Teresa's personal items, including a few handwritten letters and her dinner bowl, sari, and sandals.

The next stop on our one-day tour of Kolkata is Howrah Bridge, which is synonymous with the city. The Pontoon Bridge, a former bridge constructed at the same location, was replaced by the Howrah Bridge.

Howrah Bridge, one of the busiest cantilever bridges in the world, sees more than 150,000 pedestrians and over 100,000 automobiles everyday. There are two sidewalks on either side of the eight lanes of traffic. Additionally, there are ferry services available between Kolkata and Howrah at Launch Ghat that provide a wonderful perspective of the Howrah Bridge, particularly at night.

The third-oldest church in Kolkata, St. John's Church is a historical site that is included on the local tour of Kolkata. The church was constructed by the architect James Agg in the Neoclassical architectural style, which draws tourists to it because of its distinctive features.

The Church is an architectural marvel with its stunning stained glass windows, towering pillars, arches, and domes. The church features stunning wood carvings and marble relief work inside, along with lovely murals.

The Marble Palace, a grand residence constructed in the nineteenth century, is the next stop on the local tour of Kolkata. A sight to behold is the majestic palace, which earned its name from the marble used in its walls, flooring, and statues. One of Kolkata's most exquisitely preserved homes, this architectural marvel was constructed with high-quality Italian marble.

This three-story structure is constructed in the manner of a Chinese pavilion, with tall fluted Corinthian pillars, balconies embellished with exquisite fretwork, and sloping roofs. The palace is even more beautiful because it is surrounded by a garden with grass, a rock garden, a lake, and a small zoo.

Since it is a private residence, photography is prohibited on the property, and only authorised individuals are permitted in the occupied area.

Our next destination on the one-day local sightseeing tour of Kolkata is the Victoria Memorial, which represents the British influence in India and is situated in the centre of the city.

The vast 64-acre garden also features a variety of monuments and sculptures in addition to the galleries. There is a bronze statue of Queen Victoria sitting on a bronze throne at the entry, as well as statues of Edward VII, Curzon, Hastings, and Dalhousie. Along with this, you can observe symbolic sculptures here for motherhood, architecture, education, and justice.

The Birla Planetarium, the second-biggest in the world and the largest of its kind in Asia, is the final attraction on the one-day local tour of Kolkata. On July 2, 1963, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru inaugurated one of India's three planetariums; the other two are in Chennai and Hyderabad.

The planetarium, which was constructed in the manner of the Sanchi Stupa, has astronomical laboratories as well as an electronics and construction lab for creating equipment.
