  1. Take a taxi from the Air port. try to get a prepaid one from airport.


  2. Kalighat mandir is nearly 30kms from Kolkata Airport. You can get a lot of Taxis waiting outside the Airport. This is the easiest way to get to the Temple. A lot of Pandas (priests) will be waiting outside the temple. You just have to ask any one of them to take you inside. But don't hesitate as you are new in the city. The charges for the Puja offerings, available in differrent shops outside the temple premises, from Rs. 21 to Rs 10000. The Pranami or the fees of the Panda is upon you.

    The time of the Puja offerings is round the clock. You can offer Pujas whenever you reach there.

  3. use google maps

  5. From airport you should take a pre-paid taxi.

    Taxi fare would be Rs. 150/- to 200/-

    Kalighat is located in south Calcutta. Buses and trams are available from all parts of Calcutta. Kalighat has a Tram depot. So this is the starting and ending point for many trams. All buses going to south Calcutta have to pass through Shyam Prasad Mukherjee road. The temple is off this road. You get down in Kalighat bus stop and walk down the Kali Temple road to the temple. Kalighat is connected by metro railway.

    But please note that the nearest metro station is Jatin Das Park and not Kalighat.

    The temple is open from 5.00 A.M. to 2.00 P.M and 5.00 P.M to 10.30 P.M. It is closed from 2.00 P.M to 5.00 P.M. for Bhog. There are Aarthis in the morning and evening.
