                             Earlier known as Victoria Terminus or Bori Bunder is now renamed as Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (C.S.T) after the great Maratha leader Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.This structure made in Gothic manner is a great piece of architecture.The superb carvings and the idol of Queen Victoria is also a great piece of work.Today C.S.T. is the most important railway station of Mumbai as well as India.
