About this locality

Pincode 700007 covers north Kolkata including the Shyambazar-Shobhabazar area, the heartland of old Calcutta Bengali bhadralok culture whose grand mansions with their Durga Puja traditions, the Shyambazar five-point crossing (most political rally venue in Bengal), the Girish Chandra Ghosh natya mandirs and the streets of ancient zamindar families make this the most culturally rooted quarter of the city. The Sovabazar Rajbari, whose aristocratic Durga Puja was one of the first to invite the public in the 18th century, is the cultural ancestor of all community Durga Pujas.
