A sailor’s port
Tiretti Bazaar began developing as a predominantly Chinese neighbourhood around the mid-19th century. Chinese sailors, navigating the Indo-China maritime trade route, made pit stops in Calcutta (now Kolkata). Instead of returning home, they chose to settle in this vibrant city. Their presence infused Tiretti Bazaar with a rich cultural tapestry.
