Built in 1943, this grey metal colossus is 450 m long, making it possible to travel on foot or with any means of transport.
It is the emblematic monument of the city: the Howrah Bridge. Built in 1943, this immense grey metallic colossus is 450 m long and allows thousands of people to circulate. It is a cantilever bridge, the sixth largest of its kind in the world. In 1965 it was officially renamed Rabindra Setu, in homage to Rabindra Tagore, but continues to be commonly called Howrah Bridge. It is forbidden to photograph it. In 1993, a twin bridge named Vidyasagar Setu and nicknamed Hooghly Bridge, was completed.

" LE" site to see in Kolkatta. The crowd that lends itself to it is without end, the width and fascinating hubbub of the river, the flower market under the magical bridge, with its yellow and orange dazzling.
