EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic Boat Bridge on the River Kabul in Nowshera, North-West Frontier Province, Pakistan. The bridge, a marvel of engineering and a testament to the rich history of this region, spans the turbulent waters of the River Kabul with a series of pontoons connected by cables and ropes. The image, taken in the early 20th century, shows horse-drawn carts and carriages making their way across the bridge, providing a vital connection between the two banks of the river. The tranquil scene is in stark contrast to the present-day chaos and turmoil that often characterizes this region. The Boat Bridge, also known as the Nowshera Bridge, was built during the British colonial era to facilitate the movement of troops and supplies between the North-West Frontier Province and the Indian subcontinent. It was one of the few means of crossing the river during the monsoon season when the water levels rose significantly. The bridge, which was drawn up at night to prevent enemy attacks, was an essential part of the strategic defense system of the British Raj. The pontoons were secured with ropes and anchors to prevent them from being swept away by the strong currents. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into a time when the region was a vital trading hub and a strategic outpost of the British Empire. The Boat Bridge on the River Kabul stands as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of the North-West Frontier Province, a region that continues to fascinate and intrigue travelers and historians alike.
