The Prince of Wales Museum is now known as Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahlaya. It was also built to venerate King George’s visit. The construction of the museum is based on the Indo-Saracenic style of architecture and was successfully completed in 1923.

It has valuable collections of art and paintings, archaeology, and natural history. The collection includes local sculptures from Elephanta, Parel and Jogeshwari and 11th and 12th century sculptures from Karnataka and Gujarat.

Honoring the Muslim saint Haji Ali, this mosque was built in the middle of the sea with only a narrow path leading to it, giving it an ethereal look.

As per Muslim traditions separate praying rooms for ladies and gents are provided to pay their respects. It is set 500 yards into the sea and can be reached only during a low tide.

Shoes, junk jewellery, bags and clothes, Linking Road has it all. Regardless of whether you favor original brands or an A-level impersonation off the road, Linking Road is the place you want to visit.

Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, formally known as Victoria Terminus, designed by F.W. Stevens follows the Italian Gothic style of architecture. It is significant owing to the fact that the historic steam train from Mumbai to Thane (the first rail service in India) was flagged from here, in 1853.

Dhobi Ghaat is a place beyond ones wildest imagination. Chaos, colours, activity, and sounds exist in a freakish blend, gives a unique flavour. This is the fascinating place where Mumbai's laundry is done. It is the antithesis to the sophisticated and manicured lawns of Mahalaxmi Race course, although it is only a few hundred yards away.

Clothes are washed by hundreds of Dhobis (laundry men and women) by hand, on concrete sinks and dried in the sun, as it has been done for generations.

The Gateway of India happens to be the principle landmark of Mumbai. The same was built in yellow basalt to commemorate the royal visit of George V and Queen Mary in 1911. The construction was completed in 1924. The Gateway of India is analogous to Mumbai as the Statue of Liberty is to New York.

It is the most popular promenade of Mumbai. Built on land reclaimed during 1920s and 1930s, it spans along the shore of the Arabian Sea from Nariman Point past Chowpatty beach to Babulnath, at the foot of Malabar Hill.

It is also referred to as "Queen's Necklace" because of the vivid line of streetlights lit up at night.

Nariman point is the place where one can find most of the airlines offices, consulates and high commissions of various countries. This place is dotted with many high-rise buildings giving it a Manhattan look.

Within its cluster of skyscrapers are located some of the most powerful business houses in the country. The Maharashtra Legislative Assembly and Vidhan Sabha are also located here.
