Chandannagar Strand

Chandannagar Strand

About this place

A beautiful riverfront promenade with an Indo-French ambience, the Strand is perfect for evening walks, photography, and a relaxed heritage vibe. The historic buildings and river breeze create a mood that feels different from typical Bengali riverfronts—more colonial and European in tone.

History & highlights

Chandannagar developed as a French colonial settlement from the late 17th century, and its riverfront identity remains linked to that era. The Strand area preserves the memory of Indo-French urban design and later political transitions, including the post-Independence integration of Chandannagar into West Bengal.
