DESCRIPTION
Prinsep Ghat is a ghat built-in 1841 during the British Raj, along the Kolkata bank of the Hooghly River in India.
The monument is one of the finest examples of colonial architecture in Kolkata. It might seem that Princep Ghat was not a proper ghat as it is located some distance away from the river. But earlier, there were some stone steps leading to the river. With time, the river has receded, and the stone stairs are perhaps buried under the earth.
It was built to replace Chandpal Ghat as the principal point of embarkment and disembarkment for the important visitors to the city. It is now one of the most popular spots in Kolkata for locals and tourists alike.
