Next, head to the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CST), a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Discover the fascinating blend of Victorian Gothic and traditional Indian architectural elements that make this railway station truly unique.
Enjoy a relaxing drive along Marine Drive, famously known as the “Queen’s Necklace” for its sparkling curve of streetlights that glow at night.
