A Walk to Rediscover: Upper Chitpur Road

Chitpur has a unique historical ecosphere—a wide stretch of busy bazaars with lesser-known heritage sites and unique shops serving local cuisines. Chitpur also embodies some of the city’s finest narratives—of old temples that can be traced back to the Iranian province of Sistan and Baluchestan, of modern markets established during the British regime and of Kolkata's largest mosque. We will walk through areas like Ezra Street, once a well-known settlement of Baghdadi Jews in Kolkata, and Chitpur Road, the oldest road in Kolkata. Discover the city’s finest stories with me, Amitabha, as we explore the nooks and crannies of Chitpur.
