Mumbai by night walking tour

My evening tour was due to start at 6, but my guide Jawwad messaged to say he was stuck in traffic so could we move it to 6.30. The meeting point was only a 10-minute walk from my hotel, so I didn't have to leave until 6.15. Once I met up with Jawwad, we set off on a two-hour walk to see the city at night. We covered some of the same ground as I did with Dimple, but Jawwad had much more knowledge about Mumbai's history!

We started at the Gateway of India which wasn't illuminated, and the Taj Mahal Palace which was. Even though it wasn't that dark, it looked nice lit up. From there, we walked up to the state police headquarters, Mumbai's main museum, Mumbai's 'Big Ben', the Flora Fountain, Mumbai University, the National Mint, the Supreme Court, the Asiatic Society, and the central post office, finishing up at the magnificent Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus. The interior is very church-like!Read more
