    At first glance, Mumbai today mainly buys train tickets for the upcoming trip. The castle-like Victoria Railway Station is said to be a world cultural heritage railway station. When arriving, there was a part of the exterior wall under maintenance, which was not enough. Entering inside, the voices are full of excitement, quite lively in the Spring Festival. I asked all the way, and finally found the "foreigner ticket office" and queued up to buy tickets? NO! First queue up to get the form, then fill in... Then queue up, let the staff check whether there is a ticket in the computer, then communicate the time and price, then supplement the train number of the form, then queue up to hand in the form, then check the computer, then communicate, and finally issue the ticket. [Sidebar] Planned itinerary: 2.24 Mumbai-Olangabad (Temple) 2.26 Orangabad-Mumbai 2.28 Mumbai-Goa results tossed several times after communication, the conductor smiled and told us: the first train ticket, all specifications of the ticket are not! The companions urgently communicated and reached a consensus: First and changed the car to Olangabad, and got the second train ticket first. The ticket was bought, the street was strolling, the temperature was 34 degrees, my sister, I almost sunburned in Mumbai ~~~

    Built in 1878 in Mumbai, India, the Victoria Railway Station is named in honor of the 50th anniversary of the reign of Queen Victoria and designed by British architect William Stephen. It is a magnificent Gothic building and blends traditional Indian style. The entire building is covered with exquisite stone carvings, and has been the busiest railway station in India since its completion, and in 1996 the Indian government changed the name of the "Victoria Terminal" to "Jhatrapati Shivaji Terminal". In July 2004, it was listed as a World Heritage Site.

    Chatrapatti Shivaji Maharaji Terminal Station, the famous Victoria Railway Station, is beautiful and famous. And it is still in use. In fact, this beautiful station is quite coordinated with the bustling crowd.

    This is one of the most busiest and biggest railway station not in India but in the World. Both local train and outstation train to every part of the country will be operated here. If you come here on special occasion/special day then you'll get different different themes on the building of railway station

    [Internal] Nothing special, we walked all the way from fashion street, and we didn't want to understand why this is a world heritage. Even going to the end of the train track and to the ticket office, I felt very general. But is there more round windows of stained glass? But is there a certain height? It was not until after the underground passage that it came across the road that it was discovered. [External] The entire train station is very long, typical British architecture, and the opposite should be the same period, colonial left. The overall design is exquisite. Especially at night, the lights are on and there is no style. But don't know what the open area is now for?

    Mumbai's Victoria Station is the most proud railway station for Indians, the busiest and most beautiful railway station in India, and the only railway station in the world that has been selected as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
