Mumbai CST and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya


This year March I have gone to Mumbai to meet my friend. I caught my Flight from Chennai and reached Mumbai @ 6.30 PM. It was jet airways flight and their service were good. I collected my luggage and tried to catch a taxi. Normally its too difficult to get taxi from there. Fortunately I got a pre paid taxi from there. I taken the coupon upto Vashi.

The Cab was a black coloured with a yellow strip around it. The experience in the cab is interesting !!!!     I like that......  

I reached my friends apartments by 9.30 AM . Fresh up in a hour and had breakfast...  

Me my friend Jijo went to the nearest railway station to catch train to CST. As you know the Train services are the vain of the Mumbai city. If Train stops I think Mumbai will stop...

you can't imagine the crowd at railway station. That much crowd at all the stations.

We took ticket upto CST and finally we reached Chatrapati Shivaji Terminal, you can see the Image of the terminal. Its looks like an old palace. It was build during the British East India Company period. Before Indian Independence. 






I took a snap of the cab also. On another cab we gone to a hotel Named Gulshan E Iran.
It was max 5 to 10 mins from CST railway station.





You can see the pic of Gulshan E Iran hotel. If you get a chance to go Mumbai u must go to this hotel..  The food were really tasty and delicious....





Now its the time to visit the Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaja Vastu Sangrahalaya. Its a museum with lot of precious and old ornaments/military equipments/signs of old Mharajas etc...


On the way I tried to take some more snaps...

Streets of Mumbai.. Even though its a huge city it maintained well and tried to keep it up....





At last we reached Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya. I took a photo of its entrance area..

Its well protected and its necessary considering today's situations...

Thanks to its authorities to keep these monuments well and clear..

Its for our future generations.




Thanks friends and on my next post I will continue with other Mumbai travel stories.....

Good Byee..... !!!!!!!!!!!
