Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus

I introduce about Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus. It is name of a railway in Mumbai. It’s old name was Victoria Terminus. Mumbai suburban railway and another long distance railway have come to Mumbai. It’s name is very long, so it is called CST or VT by the citizen of Mumbai. It was registered by UNESCO World Heritage in 2004.

Next, I introduce about structure of Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus. The station was built in1888. It is a Venezia Gothic style and magnificent building. It can see uniting Gothic Revival construction of the Victorian age and traditional construction of India. This station is proud of surprising progressive structure and technological such as railway construction of 19 century.

And next, I’ll talk about history of Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus. The station was designed by Frederick William Stevens, a consulting architect in 1887 to 1888. It takes ten years to complete, and was named Victoria Terminus for the Queen and Empress Victoria.

But it was changed its name to Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus for Maratha king. He was king of India in 17 century. On 2 July 2004 the station was nominated a World Heritage Site by the World Heritage Committee of UNESCO.

We can use this station to ride in it. So, if you go to India, you should use this station!
