About College Street

College Street is a paradise for bibliophiles. It is the world's largest second-hand book market, stretching for over a kilometer with countless makeshift bookstalls. The area is also home to some of India's most prestigious academic institutions, such as Presidency University and the University of Calcutta. The historic Indian Coffee House, a hub for intellectual debates ('adda'), is a must-visit.
