July 16, 2023 By James Clark Leave a Comment

India is slowly but surely building out urban transit systems in major cities across the country. There is an updated list of current and proposed metro systems here, but I wanted to see a list of metro maps, so I made this list. This page features metro systems, and I will add trams and monorails […]

Notes on Kolkata

March 17, 2020 By James Clark 5 Comments

Kolkata is third-most populous metropolitan area in India, with a population of over 14 million.

Notes on Panaji – The quaint capital of Goa, and the Macau of India

February 26, 2020 By James Clark 5 Comments

Panaji (formerly Panjim) is capital of the state of Goa. There’s no beach here, and at just over 40,000 people, petite Panaji feels positively provincial.

Despite its diminutive size its a bit of a pain to get around due to the roads and its geography. The state is comprised of two districts: North Goa, and South Goa. When people are planning a […]

Notes on Bengaluru (The Garden City) – Old city mayhem, transport apps, and fancy airports

February 13, 2020 By James Clark 1 Comment

Bengaluru is the third largest city in India, located in the middle of the Deccan Plateau in South India. I was in Bengaluru on the way to somewhere else. I visited Bengaluru in 2007 during my first trip to India, so I would have preferred to visit a new city. 13 years between visits is […]
