Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, formerly Victoria Terminus, was built in 1887 to commemorate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria. Designed by Frederick William Stevens, it showcases a fusion of Victorian Italianate Gothic Revival architecture and traditional Indian motifs. The station's construction took ten years and was completed in 1888. It was renamed Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus in 1996, honoring the great Maratha warrior king. CSMT played a crucial role during India's struggle for independence, witnessing numerous historical events. Today, it stands as a testament to India's rich history and architectural prowess, serving as a major transportation hub and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
