Howrah Bridge in Kolkata is a cool old bridge. It's big and famous. It can get crowded, but the river view is nice. Great for a visit if you want to learn about the city.

Howrah Bridge is a major attraction in Kolkata. It is near Howrah Railway Station, just in front of it. The bridge is also known as vidyasagar setu and connects two banks of Hooghly River. It is one of the oldest and a huge Cantilever bridge without any pillars to support. The bridge is entirely made up of iron steel and undergoes maintenance every year to prevent corrosion. It was built during the British era in such a way to allow ships to pass beneath it. The unique design of the bridge 🌉 makes it a tourist attraction. It is a two lane bridge and also allows large vehicles to pass through.
However the maintenance is not up to the mark and people are destroying it by spitting gutka juice.

While the bridge itself is a marvel, the experience is enhanced by the surrounding atmosphere—the sound of honking vehicles, the scent of street food wafting through the air, and the energy of the people. Howrah Bridge is not just a crossing; it's a journey into the heart of Kolkata.

One of the oldest steel bridge build in British time. Near Howrah railway station. Don't go with more expectations and normal bridge with steel build in British period. Visit night time then can experience the lights then it fells good

The bridge is 5-10 min walk from Howrah junction station and you can feel the bridge shaking if you stand on it for some time (say 30 sec to 1 min).. the architecture of the bridge is quite good.

I like the weather or atmosphere of this place... Amazing mind blowing wind from Ganges.... And and the rain like a blessings of God and this time this is heaven.... Just wow... And with the iconic yellow taxi this view was fabulous✨...........

I was stunned to see the way it is built. The lights in the night time are blissful to watch. Close to Howrah railway station. It is just that the people should keep it clean. Pan parag stains everywhere

Book a ticket for Launch to Howrah Junction for 6 Rupees (one side) and go to the other side of the river by the Bridge and then take a walk back over the bridge to the other side again. It will be a great experience for sure as it combines both the view from river and view while waking down the path.

One of the fact is that 26,500 tonnes steel was utilised for its construction produced by Tata Steel.
