Mumbai is a colourful, vibrant, energetic and friendly city, with a varied and fascinating history. It boasts the finest collection of Victorian buildings anywhere in Asia and a myriad of temples and mosques. Some examples of High Victorian architecture include Mumbai University, Standard Chartered Bank Building and Municipal Corporation Building, while other sites worth visiting are the Shrine of Haji Ali, which overlooks the sea, Jehangir Art Gallery, the neo-classical Town Hall, St Thomas’s Anglican Cathedral, Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus railway station, comparable to New York’s Grand Central Station or London’s St Pancras; and the Gateway of India, built by the British to commemorate the visit to India in 1911 of King George V and Queen Mary.
