Worli Fort, Mumbai Overview

Located in the Worli neighborhood of Mumbai, Worli Fort is an ancient defence fort that was built in around 1675. It is often mistaken to have been constructed by the Portuguese. But in reality, it was built by the British as a defence fort as their strategy to lookout for enemy ships and pirates. Overlooking the Mahim Bay, the fort offers some of the best views in the city and is visited by locals and tourists alike. In addition to that, the monument has a built-in well, a temple and ample viewpoints overlooking the vast sea.
