About the area
Bowbazar is a dense, old-city neighbourhood known for its jewellery trade and access to Sealdah station and central Kolkata. The East-West Metro line runs through Bowbazar, improving transport links to Salt Lake and Howrah. Students and workers looking for low-cost rooms close to the city centre find Bowbazar practical, though the narrow lanes and busy commercial character mean a distinctly urban living experience.
