Kolkata, Oh my beauty!! . . I know many would start raising their eyebrows but nobody can deny the history and heritage in every nook and corner of the City of Joy. . . The Hoogly River might be dirty but the serenity of it flowing across the city adds to its charm. The Howrah bridge across the river is the the sixth-longest cantilever bridge in the world as of 2013. The iconic bridge has been the landmark for Kolkata for almost 80 years standing tall to many stories from the history. . . Next time you are visiting the city or crossing by the historical landmark, click a photo and share it with me. I would love to feature it in my story! . .
