One of the best museums this side of the country

In the heart of Fort in Mumbai. Fantastic collection of art and natural history. Well maintained. Can easily spend half a day here going through the various collections. Has a refreshment place as well

Great museum with fascinating exhibits

Well worth a couple of hours to visit. Very informative exhibits on Hinduism and Buddhism (though sculpture and handicrafts) and a nice weapons gallery. Many more exhibits including on Indian textiles, Chinese and Japanese ceramics, etc. Would recommend this.

Great Museum

Lovely museum, audio guide was decent if a bit all over the place. Some audio about each of the sections rather than just specific exhibits would have made it much better. The building is fantastic and the exhibits themselves very interesting. Should take no more...More

A Great and Well Managed Historic Collection

My visits to the C S M Museum have always been extremely memorable and inspiring! On my last visit I actually was amazed to find THE DISCUS THROWER right under the central dome! INCREDIBLE! Never miss this great collection of ancient Indian art and artifacts!

Fort/Kala Ghoda

Undeniably among the most historic neighborhoods, Fort
binds the entire city together. Those wanting to learn
more about the roots of Mumbai will have a treat
picking up cues here. From Chhatrapati Shivaji
Terminus (CST) (Mumbai’s most recognised railway
station) to the famed Town Hall and some of the oldest
bazaars, Fort reflects Mumbai’s rich past in ways that
few neighborhoods do. Popular for its family-run Parsi
