If you have extra time, visit the Vidyasagar Setu (Second Hooghly Bridge) for a breathtaking view of the city. If you have less time, skip the Science City and Princep Ghat. Do note that most tourist spots are closed on Mondays. Be prepared for Kolkata's heat and humidity, carry an umbrella and always carry cash for the street food and souvenirs.
