Champatala Ghat:
The grafittis at this ghat represent Durga Pujo in a Nutshell. From idol making to bringing Goddess Durga and her children to Pandals / Houses all over the city, worshipping them for full 9 days and on doshomi, with a heavy heart, the idol is immersed at these very ghats. By evening the atmosphere of Champatala ghat had been completely transformed, with the people coming in numbers, enjoying the sunset and group musicians creating the perfect ambience for all of it.

Ahiritola Shovabazar Ghat:
The Debs built the ghat for use by the family and locals. Have gotten its name from the milkmen who once called it home. The word 'ahir' refers to milkman or milkmaid, and they used the ghat to bathe their cows and buffaloes. The river has played a significant role in shaping the history of Kolkata, which developed out of a small village named Sutanuti. Job Charnock, who is accredited with the founding of modern-day Kolkata arrived here back in 1686 through the Ahiritola Ghat.
