A lane in North Kolkata

North Kolkata encompasses the northern part of Kolkata, including the city's oldest neighborhoods.

Notable areas within North Kolkata include Shyambazar, Bagbazar, Kumartuli, Shobhabazar, Posta, Jorasanko, Rajabazar, Phoolbagan, Maniktala, Kankurgachi, Ultadanga, Chitpur, Belgachia, Tala, Sinthee, Dum Dum, Nagerbazar, Cossipore and Baranagar. This region is known for its old heritage buildings and temples, such as the Shovabazar Rajbari. Due to its rich cultural heritage, it is commonly referred to as "Babu Kolkata."

North Kolkata is home to several palatial structures, including Laha Bari, Pathuriaghata Ghosh Bari, and Thakur Bari.[1] This area also houses the main campuses of several universities, including the University of Calcutta, Presidency University, and Rabindra Bharati University. It features major railway junctions like Dum Dum Junction and metro stations and serves as a business hub, stretching from the Sinthee crossing to the Chiriamore crossing, Shyambazar crossing, and Burrabazar. Property values in North Kolkata are extremely high due to its central location.

History

North Kolkata was previously known as the village of Sutanuti. It was located along with two other villages, Gobindapur and Kalikata.[2] This region, together with the central and southern areas, constituted the capital of British India until 1911.
