Reviewed By macedonboy - Glasgow, United Kingdom
The Mumbai G.P.O is a functioning and major post office in Mumbai that was built in the latter stages of the British Empire. Although built by a British architect, John Begg, there's no obvious European influence on the design. It is an excellent example of Indo-Islamic style of the various Islamic empires of the Indian subcontinent. The building is so good looking, it could pass for a palace. Inside, the GPO is huge for a post office and one of the reasons is the many facilities that are still conducted in this post office, banking, mail and stamped related shopping etc. The layout of the interior is quite old fashioned from a westerners point of view, but retains a lot of old world charm. It’s worth a small detour in old Mumbai to see this grand building.

Reviewed By KanwarDeep - Mumbai, India
Gloria Church (Also known in Portuguese as: Nossa Senhora de Gloria) was built in 1911-13 on one of the oldest Roman Catholic church sites in Mumbai. The church is situated in the Byculla, Mumbai. Limited parking. It’s a very busy area therefore finding a place to park on the street maybe difficult. Do visit if in the vicinity.

What a beautiful working synagogue this is. The caretaker was incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming and allowed us to explore the facilities inside and out. Apparently there are 7 synagogues in Bombay and 4 000 jews. Attached to the synagogue is a hostel where you can get bed and breakfast
