Colaba, a narrow strip of land with no historical significance, no forts, no medieval past, neither tales of kings or queens nor any bloody battles. But it has something which rest of the Bombay lacks

This one of the 7 original islands of Mumbai was once a sleepy fishing village. There was a time when there were lots of jackals and other wild animals on this island, a time when there were more snakes in the church than the worshipers itself

We will traverse through the journey of 2 little islands which became 1 and everything got changed when they got connected with Mumbai main island via a causeway. And, an ignored island became the diamond tip of Mumbai
I will be telling you the stories of the journey of this little island from the year 1600

A company that owns 900 horses back then
A bunder named after the fish
A railway station which is now extinct
Strict restrictions on the use of iron and electricity
Coming of Hotel Taj Mahal Palace and Gateway of India
Stories of people

and so many interesting incidents which happened on this tiny island or related to it

Meeting Point: The Gateway of India
