The largest synagogue in Eastern India, with Victorian architectural style. It was built in 1884 by Elias David Ezra in memory of his father David Joseph Ezra, who made his fortune in the real estate trade of Kolkata. It is colloquially called lal minarwala church (লাল মিনারওয়ালা চার্চ lāl minārōyālā chārch) for its distinctive red tower.
Magen David Synagogue is located at the junction of Brabourne Road and Canning Street in Kolkata. Magen David is the second operating synagogue in Kolkata; the other is the Beth El Synagogue at Pollock Street.

Officially Rabindra Setu (রবীন্দ্র সেতু Robīndro Setu), the 705 m long Howrah Bridge is one of the iconic bridges of West Bengal. It is a cantilever bridge with a suspended span over the Hooghly River, and was built without any nut or bolts. The bridge was commissioned in 1943 by Braithwaite, Burn & Jessop Construction Company, replacing the older pontoon bridge. It took over six years to build, and the entire project cost ₹25 million.
