RE: Victoria Memorial, Kolkata

in #victoria7 years ago

The Victoria Memorial Hall or the Victoria Memorial, a monument in Victoria, located in Kolkata, West Bengal, is a memorial.

  • The construction of the large-scale Victoria Memorial in the White Paper began in 1906.

  • The mausoleum was inaugurated in 1921.

  • Beugal-Dhariini in the highest dome of the monastery

  • The winner has a black bronze statue.

To build a white marble building and its surrounded 65-acre garden, an astronomical price of one crore five lakh rupees was needed. This price, in the calculation of inflation, is roughly roughly 2 billion and 20 thousand 48 thousand dollars today.
