The Howrah Station n Bridge while I am going to visit Howrah Bridge in West Bengal Kolkata India I passed through the Howrah Station it's mesmerizing view attracts me more, especially the color changing from red to Green to yellow are quite remarkable.  Howrah station is the oldest and largest as well as it is one of the busiest and largest train stations in the world. This station started its operation on August 15, 1854, beside Howrah station there is a Rail Museum where you can find several artifacts and interestingly you will find the world's oldest steam locomotive name Fairy Queen which was operated from the period 1909 to 1943. Howrah is the Divisional headquarters for the Eastern  Railway. you can use a local male and easily go to Belur Math, Tarakeswar, Katwa Bandel, Bardhaman and so many intermediate stations. Howrah is one of the best and well planned rail stations in India and also there are electronic boards which will help you to see on which platform your train is coming, you will find several small tea shops, lines of yellow taxis standing in the queues with nice Bengali flavor Howrah Bridge now you can see the most iconic and remarkable Howrah Bridge. the blue light at night makes the Howrah Bridge like a Fairytale princess is waiting for her Prince.  We are going to the underpass to reach and enter the main road to Howrah,  I had to record It Inside from my cab that's why sometimes the view was not clear due to the windshield of the Taxi. It is the third-longest cantilever bridge,  in the world. Cantilever means a long bar that is fixed at only one end to vertical support and is used to hold a structure as a bridge in position. Howrah Bridge has a unique feature, it was formed entirely by riveting and does not have any nuts and bolts, as you can see there is a Footpath and I came to know from a taxi driver that no person is allowed to take photographs by standing over the bridge which causes huge fine by Kolkata police here you can see the beautiful steel structure of Howrah Bridge one by one pass by plenty of light over there to see the road clearly now the history of Howrah Bridge in a nutshell It was constructed in 1946 and to date handles a massive amount of traffic on a daily basis.  The Calcutta Port Trust was founded in 1870 and entrusted via the Howrah Bridge Act of 1870 one with the construction and maintenance of the Howrah Bridge. The first Bridge was built in 1874 signing a contract with Sir Bradford  Lesley.  Parts of the bridge were built in England and then shipped to India to assemble. The first Bridge over the Hooghly River connecting Calcutta was open to traffic on 17 October 1874. It was 465.70 M long and 19 M wide with 2.1 M wide pavements on their side. To ensure that the steamers and other water transport could pass the bridge would be unfastened periodically. A few years later the bridge was illuminated by using electrical lamp posts. The problem was this type of Bridge could not bear the load of heavy traffic and rough weather. By  the turn of the century, the need for a sturdier alternative felt keenly and the port Commission begin seeking other plans. Thus, the planning and commissioning of the Howrah Bridge began.

A Kolkata and Gangasagar tour offers a blend of urban vibrancy and spiritual serenity. Kolkata, known as the "City of Joy," is rich in cultural heritage, with iconic landmarks like Victoria Memorial, Howrah Bridge, and Dakshineswar Temple. Explore its bustling markets, colonial architecture, and vibrant arts scene. A trip to Gangasagar, located on Sagar Island at the confluence of the Ganges River and the Bay of Bengal, is a deeply spiritual experience. Pilgrims flock here for the holy dip during Makar Sankranti, believing it to cleanse sins. This tour beautifully combines the essence of city life and spiritual devotion.
