Metro Artistry: Kolkata's Stations That Are a Canvas in Motion

Kolkata metro stations are not just transit points but also vibrant palettes of the city's rich history and artistic heritage. Sealdah Metro Station is especially noteworthy with stunning murals and installations that honor the city's legendary figures and cultural heritage, turning the drudgery of daily commutes into sensory experiences.

 

Other stations across the network have carefully created artworks that reflect Bengal's history, literature, and folk culture, marrying contemporary metro technology with timeless design. This coming together of art enhances the commuter experience, transforming the metro into a rolling art gallery that makes travelers familiar with Kolkata's soul.

 

As the city's metro network expands exponentially-to 90 km in 2025 and over 130 km by 2027-these cutting-edge spaces will double, complementing the city's nature and promoting the mobility of its citizens.
