Jain Temple, Calcutta
Raphael Tuck & Sons' "OILETTE", ~ 1905
Wide Wide World, Postcard 7183
Jain Temple. Calcutta has been called a city of Palaces,
and it has certainly a number of imposing buildings, including
the Temple in the picture. The city extends for six miles or more
along the Hugli, and on its banks the panorama unfolds it self -
Temples and Gardens and Palaces, the Port, the Shipping and the
great Fort William, the most important stronghold in India. |
