Mumbai : Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus

Maharashtra - Mumbai or Bombay : Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus    


It is one of the city's magnificet Gothic building, it is decorated with sculptures and so it looks almost like a palace or cathedral than anything as a transport depot. Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus is the headquarters of one of the most complex suburban railway systems in India.
It was designed in 1887 by William Strevens, 34 years after the first locomotive made way from VT to Thane.
