I live in Kolkata on Park Street. It is a very good colony. There is a very big hotel near my house. My house is near the Park Street police station. Every day we can see a few policemen on the road enjoying the morning sun. The airport is 18 kilometers from my house. There is a gym near my house. I go to the gym every morning at 6 o’ clock. My car is in the parking lot with a lot of other cars.
Park Street is a very beautiful place in Kolkata. There are a lot of beautiful restaurants and pastry shops. The people on Park Street are also very beautiful and polite. There is also a very good bookstore called the Oxford Bookstore. It’s near a bar. You can get all kinds of books there. You can also sit in there comfortably and read your books.
My address is House number 1423A, Park Street, Kolkata. The PIN code is 700016.
