About

Kolkata’s oldest and Eastern India’s largest wholesale market, Burrabazar, is a vibrant confluence of cultures where traditions, languages, cuisines, and countless stories blend seamlessly.

Immerse yourself in the chaos, breathe in the aroma of spices, witness the riot of colours in the fruit and flower markets, and come away with memorable frames.

• Please wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes.

• Your experience varies by day - Saturdays offer a bustling, chaotic atmosphere perfect for photographers comfortable navigating heavy crowds, porters and traffic.

Sundays provide a quieter, relaxed vibe with closed shops, ideal for capturing moody, unusual moments without the overwhelming chaos. Kindly consider this while booking.

• While we do sneak inside local buildings for unique vantage points, please note these aren't tourist spots and access may be restricted any time.

• Most importantly, bring an open mind and any photography device, from mobile to DSLR!

• Look beyond conventional social media frames and standard Howrah Bridge panoramas and let the unfiltered, raw essence of Burrabazar completely surprise you.

• It is recommended to carry a tripod/gorilla-pod to explore the immense scope of long exposure photography.
