Railway station is very crowded

Buildings looks amazing , like old model buildings, and one church is their it’s also so cool

When u enter to Cst u should secure everything that much crowded area

The station is so beautifully maintained it looks beautiful to see this old structure and the place is located exactly at the center near the sea and there is a huge market near the station . It was so good to see that the old place is so well maintained and looks beautiful like we are entering a kingdom.

Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj railway station

Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj railway station, also known as CST (Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus) or VT (Victoria Terminus), is a historic railway station located in Mumbai, India. It is one of the busiest and most iconic railway stations in India and serves as a major transportation hub for local, regional, and long-distance trains.

The station's architecture is a blend of Victorian Gothic Revival and traditional Indian styles, making it a unique and impressive landmark. It was built in 1887 and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004.

The Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, formerly known as Victoria Terminus Station, in Mumbai, is an outstanding example of Victorian Gothic Revival architecture in India, blended with themes deriving from Indian traditional architecture. The building, designed by the British architect F. W. Stevens, became the symbol of Bombay as the ‘Gothic City’ and the major international mercantile port of India. The terminal was built over 10 years, starting in 1878, according to a High Victorian Gothic design based on late medieval Italian models. Its remarkable stone dome, turrets, pointed arches and eccentric ground plan are close to traditional Indian palace architecture. It is an outstanding example of the meeting of two cultures, as British architects worked with Indian craftsmen to include Indian architectural tradition and idioms thus forging a new style unique to Bombay.
