Visit Mount Mary Church – A Spiritual and Scenic Landmark in the Heart of Bandra
Situated atop a peaceful hill in Bandra, overlooking the Arabian Sea, Mount Mary Church—officially known as the Basilica of Our Lady of the Mount—is one of Mumbai’s oldest and most revered churches. Originally built in the 16th century and reconstructed in 1904, the church is known for its stunning Gothic-style architecture, serene atmosphere, and the beautiful statue of Mother Mary believed by many to have miraculous powers.
