was conceived following the visit of King George V in
1911 and officially opened in 1924.
Prince of Wales Museum:- Beside the Wellingdon Circle,
close to the Colaba hotel enclave, the Prince of Wales
Museum was built to commemorate Kind George V's first
visit to India in 1905 while he was still Prince of
Wales. The part of this interesting museum was opened
in 1923. It was designed in the Indo-Saracenic style
and has sections for art and paintings, archaeology
and natural history.

stands Mumbai's principal art gallery. There are often
special exhibitions of modern Indian art here. The gallery
also has public phones, public toilets, good snack bar.

bathers and even fewer sunbathers neither activity has
much of a following in India, and in any case the water
