Rabindra Setu

The Howrah Bridge is a cantilever bridge that spans the Hooghly River
in West Bengal, India. Commissioned in 1943, the bridge was originally
named the New Howrah Bridge, because it links the city of Howrah to its
twin city, Kolkata (Calcutta). On 14 June 1965 it was renamed Rabindra
Setu, after the great Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore who was the
first Indian and Asian Nobel laureate. However, it is still popularly
known as the Howrah Bridge.-
