SUMMARY:The Crown Jewel of Mumbai- Inside CSMT Heritage Walk
LOCATION:McDonald's
DESCRIPTION:On a crisp summer day in 1853\, a train’s whistle broke the s
 ilence of a new dawn. Slowly ‘Sahib’\, ‘Sind’ and ‘Sultan’\, d
 eparted the Bori Bunder station\, amongst a roar of celebration and fanfar
 e\, whilst pulling a convoy of 14 coaches on a 55 minute long journey to 
 ‘Tanna’ and the Railways were born. The railways were considered the h
 arbingers of economic progress\, the finest in terms of class and luxury a
 nd the ‘new’ and ‘modern’ way to travel. Along with the railways c
 ame the construction of one of the grandest structures in India\, a mammot
 h station building\, that is\, the finest creation of the architect F.W. S
 tevens. With its magnificent arches and columns and intricately detailed w
 alls\, capitals and pillars\, the building has\, over time\, become a symb
 ol of the city itself. The railways are today a part of the very fabric of
  this country\, with every single inch of India being connected by the rai
 l network. Whether it be to transport freedom fighters across the land or 
 soldiers and vaccines to the far flung parts of India in times of emergenc
 ies the Railways have played a pivotal role in the success story of modern
  India.Are you a fan of architecture\, captivating stories\, and the allur
 e of historical anecdotes? Welcome aboard our ‘Crown Jewel of Mumbai-Ins
 ide the CSMT Heritage Building’ walk tour. On this 1.5 hr long tour\, ta
 ke a step into the quiet solitude of the CSMT heritage building\, a dramat
 ic contrast from the ever bustling main road just outside. Walk through th
 e passages and corridors of an architectural marvel which until now was a 
 mystery to the commoners of Mumbai. Begin the tour at the heritage museum
 \, overflowing with railway relics from the days gone by. Then walk into t
 he front garden to marvel at the collection of architectural features that
  dot the building\, each one bearing its own significance and story. We th
 en move to the pièce de résistance of the tour\, the Staircase and the G
 rand dome\, architecturally speaking the one of the grandest designed stru
 ctures in India. We finally end the tour in the gallery overlooking the st
 ar chamber\, more commonly known as the local ticket counter\, as we soak 
 in the hustle bustle of the movement on the platforms.Sign up and come abo
 ard our train on a journey through history\n\nBoletos: https://www.distric
