Howrah est la porte d'entrée occidentale de la région métropolitaine de Kolkata, dominée par le célèbre pont de Howrah enjambant le fleuve Hooghly. Elle constitue l'un des plus grands hubs ferroviaires de l'Inde, reliant la ceinture industrielle du Bengale-Occidental au reste du pays. Les visiteurs découvrent ici un mélange unique d'héritage colonial et de nature, notamment à travers les vastes espaces verts du Jardin botanique indien Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose. La ville conserve un caractère industriel distinct par rapport à sa voisine commerciale de l'autre côté du fleuve.
Howrah abrite l'une des plus anciennes et plus grandes gares ferroviaires d'Inde, servant de point de transit majeur pour des millions de voyageurs chaque jour.
La ville est un important centre de fonderie et de moulage de fer, héritage de l'expansion industrielle coloniale le long des rives du Hooghly.
Malgré son statut de ville distincte, Howrah est physiquement et économiquement liée à Kolkata, formant le cœur de l'aire métropolitaine de Kolkata.
L'économie locale s'est historiquement développée autour des usines à jute qui bordaient autrefois le fleuve Hooghly, façonnant le paysage urbain de la région.
D'octobre à mars, lorsque le temps est frais et sec, idéal pour visiter les sites en extérieur.
2 jours, suffisant pour découvrir l'architecture ferroviaire principale, les monuments en bord de fleuve et les jardins botaniques.
