Ride2Breathe with Calcutta Walks, discovering Heritage of Central Calcutta

Outside Raj Bhawan, Government Place.

In front of the Standard Life Assurance Company Building. If you're ever in front of this place, check out the two statues engraved on either side of the arch, depicting LIFE & DEATH.

Riding past GPO.

That's me in front of the CS Class Steam Locomotive at the Eastern Railways HQ.

The Armenian Church. The entire church is surrounded by gravestones.

Inside the Armenian Church.

The Synagogue at Ezra Street.

Inside the Synagogue.

Inside the market which has encroached the Parsee Church.

The Parsee Church, in a dilapidated state. Roots of trees eating through the walls and pillars. I guess it won't stand for more than a couple of years at most.

A reflection of those occupying this sacred place.
