What travellers are saying
- shayneracheldanieljPerth, Australia60 contributionsJust because it’s iconic, it’s a must do!
The queues for the entry due to safety scanners are a disappointing requirement.
Given what happened down the road, it’s understandable. Get there early or after dark..Written 21 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Located in the square is the Hutatma Memorial Statue to commemorate the movement. The square is a popular and touristy spot as it’s close to all the main sights of Mumbai and also has the lovely Flora Fountain.
It’s worth stopping at this public square, it’s a very picturesque spot.Written 1 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Even though we told the guide we didn’t really want lunches he took us to restaurants where we sometimes only ordered a drink.
On our last day in India we were advised by the airlines to be at the airport at least 3 hours before our flight at 5.55 am because of the crowds. We were told repeatedly by the guide to be ready by 2.30am sharp. At 2.40 am the hotel rang the company and were told the car was on its way. At 3.00 am the hotel rang again and were told the car was not coming. We were becoming extrembly stressed as it looked like we would miss our flight to the Maldives.
The Hotel Crowne Plaza Rohini in Delhi then arranged a car for us. We were extremely grateful to the hotel for their help. Have sent an email to the company and Trip a Deal but as yet no reply.Written 14 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It was covered and seemed to be under construction so it would have been easy to miss. It didn't seem you were able to get into the garden to get a closer view of the statue. It is quite an interesting looking statue with the person on top of a horse.Written 23 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sangeetha AnbalaganBengaluru, India1,746 contributionsOn 3rd March'19 (Sunday evening), myself with my hubby went for evening walk to Five gardens and got to visit Don Bosco church.
The Shrine of Don Bosco has today become a must- visit-at-any-cost spot for all Marian devotees who come to Mumbai. It’s history dates back with the Salesian priests to 1954. The church is dedicated to Mary Help of Christians better known as “Don Bosco’s Madonna”. The Shrine itself is an engineering marvel but what really catches the eye at once is the 12-foot-high gold-plated statue of Mary Help of Christians that stands majestically atop the main dome.
Must visit church for Catholic !Written 12 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AcinetoAuckland Central, New Zealand20,117 contributionsThe replica is located by the Wellington Fountain roundabout down the road from the Gateway of India. There are crosswalks along the roundabout so it is fairly easy to get to. There is a large Vikrant sign in front of the boat replica. There is also an information board about the ship. The boat was quite an interesting thing to see while walking around.Written 24 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Boadicea-1954London, UK68 contributionsIt was a pleasure to shop in this lovely store and have lunch at their charming café. Fabindia clothing and home furnishings are of superior quality, but of course more expensive than products found in Indian markets. We were happy to find this store still open given that so many Mumbai establishments were closed for business in March 2020 because of the pandemic beginning.Written 19 February 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Tom GSan Diego, CA241 contributionsThis service started in the late 1800s to deliver home-cooked native food for lunch to migrant workers who didn’t have restaurant or other options where they worked. A dabbala collects his group of lunches in the morning from homes or restaurants, goes to a transfer point such as at Churchgate Station, where dabbawalas sort the tiffins, or boxes, into groups according to color coding systems. They deliver to to trains. Dabbawalas at the destinations deliver the boxes to the homes or offices for the workers to enjoy, then return after lunch to pick up the tiffins and reverse the process. They claim only one or two missed deliveries every month or so. In Mumbai, some 4,500 to 5,000 dabbawalas deliver 175,000 to 200,000 lunch boxes each work day. The dabbawalas belong to a union, pay dues and are guaranteed a job for life.Written 5 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AcinetoAuckland Central, New Zealand20,117 contributionsThe statue is located at the main entrance to Juhu Beach. The figures are quite big and golden so they do stand out quite a bit. The three figures look like they are on top of a tower looking over the ocean with a canon between them. It is quite a nice and interesting monument to look at.Written 19 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- macedonboyGlasgow, UK1,79,496 contributionsThis statue stands tribute to Sir Pherozeshah Merwanjee Mehta, a Parsi politician, lawyer and one of the founding members of the Indian National Congress in the time of the British Empire in India.
The statue depicts Pherozeshah Merwanjee Mehta as a Parsi gentleman wearing the stereotypical Parsi hat, dressed in a suit and the robes of his legal profession. The statue stands directly in front of the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai building, opposite Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus. The statue is worth a visit. Not only is it a monument to an important man, it looks good standing in front of the municipal building and it’s close to the terminus, an attraction in itself.Written 1 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The statue depicts Vivekananda in probably his best known pose, standing straight up with his arms crossed across his chest. The statue is not a must see in Mumbai, but it is located next to the Gateway of India in Colaba were most of the sights of Mumbai are also located, so it’s worth a quick detour.Written 2 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It stands on a traffic island on the busy Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Marg.
The statue pays hommage to Lal Bahadur Shastri, an Indian politician and Statesman. He was born on the 2nd October 1904 in Mughalsarai and died on the 11th January 1966 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan aged 61.
The life sized statue, five feet and two inches, depicts Shastri as if walking along holding a book in his left hand. He is also wearing his preferred style of clothing, the dhoti.
It stands on a multi layered plinth, on one section, on all four sides, there is a rifle crossed with a farming implement and the words, Jai Jawan Jai Kisan, underneath
During his career he served as India's Home Minister from 1961 to 1963. He then became India's second Prime Minister following the death of Jawaharlal Nehru in 1964. Soon afterwards India was attacked by Pakistan and at the time there was a shortage of grains.
In 1965 while making a speech Shastri coined the phrase "Jai Jawan Jai Kisan", which translates as "Hail the Soldier, Hail the Farmer". He was urging the soldiers to defend India and the farmers to produce more grains.Written 7 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It is located between the Gandhi Statue and the Chatrapati Shivaji Monument.
It is not the prettiest of statues, which stands in a small enclosed garden. Sadly it also stands in front of rather smelly public toilets, so just time for a quick photograph, then off.Written 6 March 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
