Howrah, en quelques mots

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.
