Explanation

The Victoria Memorial Hall in Kolkata was opened to the public in 1921. Built between 1906-1921, it commemorates Queen Victoria and now houses a museum. The construction began after her death in 1901, making 1921 the correct opening year.

AI explanation

The Victoria Memorial in Kolkata, built in memory of Queen Victoria, was constructed over many years starting in 1906 and was formally opened to the public in 1921. This long construction period is why the completion/establishment year is often cited as 1921 rather than the start date.
