What makes The Original Mumbai by Dawn – Recommended by Nigella Lawson & Nat Geo Traveller! a unique experience ?
Possibly the most architectural stunning building in India, Victoria Terminus Railway Station, now CST, sees a record of six hundred and sixty thousand footfalls daily, making it the busiest station in Mumbai.
At dawn, the CST station also serves as the city’s largest newspaper sorting area.
Travelers understand the life of the Koli fisherfolk (the original inhabitants of Mumbai) and also witness the arrival and grading of 50 tonnes of fish. They also witness a one-of-its-kind fish auction of the famous Bombay Duck.
Witness the early morning colour and fragrance of this market.
In the middle of night, when the sky is pitch black and the rest of Mumbai is fast asleep, the wholesale produce market in the neighbourhood of Byculla is a hive of frenetic activity.
