New name is KOLKATA - that is closer how it used to be pronounced in the native language - Bengali.

Airport code is still the old code CCU for Calcutta. The airport is on northeast corner of metro - also also called Dum Dum from the local township name.

If going by train, try station names of HOWRAH or SEALDAH - the latter is a friendlier terminus, but less trains go there. Howrah is the traditional rail terminus - on other side of river Ganges.

the shopping is great, hard to know where loacals go though. The city core is fairly small and most things are in walking distance. Many good and interesting museums, which many are free to enter. Fantastic public transport system that runs 24/7 if you want to go a little further.

Stockholm , Don't miss:

The Old Town. It is the largest preserved medieval town center in Europe.
