Here people are really artists and they can crave an art in any kind or in any form you could even imagine. This is really fantabulous. They worship Vishwakarma Pooja wherein they believe that the whole world was created by Vishwakarma (chief architect of Hindu Gods) after Brahma has told him to do so.
The sculptures they create seems like it is real and not a sculpture at all. The colours, the shape they design is marvellous and life-like.
After this festival they celebrate Durga Puja and at south (Mysore or karnataka) we call this Navaratri or Dussehra or Dasara.
Here people will create Durga Idols ; they call it Pendals with lot of decoration around the idols. It looks like they have built the temple although it is made from different materials.
I will post some of the photos of Durga Idols which is really marvellous.
The total cost of the Durga Puja in the whole Cal is estimated to be more than a billion dollars.
I was thinking in a very different way if they can ..If they dont celebrate the Durga Puja for one year then the whole Cal can be converted into a Hi-tech city within a year.
