Heritage Walk Highlights Art Deco in Kolkata

Heritage Walk Highlights Art Deco in Kolkata

A group of people went on a walk in a part of Kolkata to look at special old buildings.

These buildings are from a style called Art Deco, which has curves and pretty designs.

The walk was led by a woman named Mohor Sengupta, who explained how these buildings were made by people who lived there a long time ago.

Some of these buildings were homes of famous actors and artists.

The group saw how the Art Deco style is not just in buildings but also in jewelry and other things.

They worry that these buildings might be destroyed if people don't take care of them.

The walk was organized to make people notice and care about these special buildings so that they can be saved for the future.
