Meeting Point: The starting point will be at Asiatic Society in Fort
Our adventure begins in the heart of Mumbai, outside the legendary Bombay Castle (behind Asiatic Society), where the story of the erstwhile Bombay Fort begins. Step back in time and learn about the city’s humble beginnings and how it has transformed into the vibrant city it is today and the role the precinct had to play in the same.
a place filled with fascinating stories from the mid-1800s. We’ll discover how gas lights were first exhibited here and hear amusing anecdotes, including a funny tale about Jinnah, the father of Pakistan. This is the same place where Gandhi’s ashes were kept for the people to come to pay their respects. We'll also share an intriguing secret—the Asiatic Society houses a hidden treasure, a 14th-century copy of Dante's Divine Comedy. Although not accessible to the public, this precious artefact was so valuable that Mussolini once offered a staggering one million pounds for it. We simply couldn't part with such a priceless piece of history.
We walk through the Horniman circle precinct and move toward the St. Thomas Cathedral
