Let’s take a step back in time to the days of yorn when what we know now as the grand city of Mumbai, was originally a set of 7 islands ; each with their own unique tales.
Amongst these islands, the island of Salsette was by far the most nondescript. Inhabited by the indigenuous Koli fishing communities, Salsette was a far cry from the present day cultural melting pot Bandra. Though what continues to intrigue both natives and non-natives is the continued community endeavor to maintain the delicate cultural balance which exists in the suburb today .Many put this down to the perpetual Western influence from the Portugese Jesuit priests given sole ownership of Bandra,Sion and Wadala in the 16th century. In the duration of the walk, we will take you on a mission to discover the hidden heritage treasures which the Western and native forefathers left behind.
In this walk you will discover the bustling blanes of Chimbai Village, St. Andrews Church, the Ranwar Village Community, the Hill Road, Saint Stephen’s Church, Mount Mary Church and Castela de Aguada or The Bandra Fort.
How to reach the start point: The location is motorable and can be reached by a car or a taxi.
