JAHANGIR ART GALLERY FORT MUMBAI

JAHANGIR ART GALLERY FORT MUMBAI

JAHANGIR ART GALLERY  is an art gallery in Mumbai (India). It was founded by Sir Cowasji Jehangir at the urging of K. K. Hebbar and Homi Bhabha. It was built in 1952. Managed by the Committee of Management, the entire cost of this mansion was donated by Cowasji Jehangir. This gallery is situated at Kala Ghoda, behind the Prince of Wales Museum, in South Mumbai near the Gateway of India, and has four exhibition halls. The gallery was designed by G.M.Bhuta for G.M. Bhuta & Associates.

History of Jehangir Art Gallery:

The eminent Jehangir Art Gallery was founded at Kala Ghoda, Mumbai by Sir Cowasji Jehangir, as a dedicatory memorial for his late son B.G Kher. Standing as one of the oldest buildings in the city, the Art Gallery was built in 1952. The gallery has exhibited creations of some of the greatest names including the works of S.H Raza, M.F Hussain, K.K Hebbar, Anjolie Ela Menon and more.

Sitting close to the Prince of Wales Museum, the Art Gallery since its inception has always been folded with travelers and art lovers. Acting as a pioneer, Jehangir Art Gallery which stood as a symbol of art, slowly encouraged other exhibitors to lean towards the art. So various art facilities have been constructed around the gallery making the entire Kala Ghoda area a hubspot for art and sheer creativity.

Interestingly, the wave of promoting contemporary art in the county started in 1988 with the formation of the Bombay Art Society. Taking a step further, in promoting young and growing artists, Sir Jehangir promptly donated towards the notion and established Jehangir Art Gallery. Additionally, prize distribution and rewards for best art which is still practiced has always been there with the facility since its inception.

TARAPORWALA AQUARIUM MUMBA

TARAPORWALA AQUARIUM MUMBAI

 

Taraporewala Aquarium, opposite Chowpatty Beach, is the oldest aquarium in the country. It has been recently renovated, and is now one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city. The aquarium houses a variety of freshwater and marine fishes, and now has a number of interactive activities designed to capture the attention of youngsters. Fish Spa is one of the most popular sections, and you can always find kids gathered around, eager to dip their feet in the water. Touch Pool is another popular attraction where visitors, under supervision of course, can dip their hands in the water and touch the inhabitants. Needless to say, there are no dangerous creatures in this section.

While the renovated aquarium is way better than the old one, which had been sadly neglected for years, we still have a long way to go before we get a world class aquarium. We can also only hope that this newly renovated one does better in terms of maintenance and upgradation than the old one. If you are planning to visit the aquarium, I strongly suggest you go on working days in the afternoons. It is almost always crowded now, thanks to the renovation and publicity, and weekends and evenings see a long queue snaking along the road.

SHRI MAHALAKSHMI TEMPLE MUMBAI

SHRI MAHALAKSHMI TEMPLE MUMBAI

  Mahalaxmi Temple is one of the most famous temples of Mumbai situated on Bhulabhai Desai Road in Mahalaxmi area. It is dedicated to Mahalakshmi the central deity of Devi Mahatmyam. The temple was built in 1831 by Dhakji Dadaji, a Hindu merchant. The Mahalaxmi temple contains images of the Tridevi goddesses Mahakali, Mahalakshmi, and Mahasaraswati. All three images are adorned with nose rings, gold bangles and pearl necklaces. The image of Mahalakshmi is in the centre shown holding lotus flowers in tandem.
  The compound of this temple contains several stalls that sell flower garlands and other paraphernalia used by devotees for worship and as offering.

This mother, Mahalaxmi, resides in the present place with her two sisters, Mahakali and Mahasaraswati, usually from 1784-85.
 The southern tip of the Mumbai islands, that is, now is the temple of Mahalaxmi and the Worli village in front of it, ie the water of the sea is spreading till the present time is the ‘Love-Grove Udcanchan Center’ or ‘Atria Mall’ of the Mumbai Municipal Corporation. At the time of recruitment, the water of the sea reached the crossing of the Byculla. So, if you want to go to Worli from Mumbai, then there is no option without a boat. The British called ‘The Great Breach’ for the water that enters the sea. Breach is a window that means a loop. Hornby decided to close this traffic and he would fill this creek and start working as a carriageway without going to England’s office for permission to build a car that could reach the island of Worli. It was said that the work of building ‘Worli Bandh’ was done. The contract for the construction of this dam was entrusted to the young engineer of Ramji Shivaji, Lord Prabhu Prabhu. The construction work was started. Filling the amount of stone statue, the stars came here. The work of collecting the amount of stone stone in the bay started. If there was some progress in the construction, the dam constructed by the sea water would collapse and start again. It lasted for many months. Considering that time technology, it was a difficult task. But both Ramji Shivaji and Hornby did not lose heart. They tried again and again but they want to be back again ..!
On such a night Ramji gave a vision to Mahalaxmi in a dream and said, ‘I am at the bottom of the ocean with my sisters. Take me out and then your dam will be completed .. Ramji Shiva believed in the vision and decided to add the story to Hornby. The next day, Ramji asked Shivnar’s dream and the story of Goddess Devi on Hornby’s story and asked permission to search the statue of the goddess in the sea. Hornby Pacha British It was not possible to believe these stories, but the work undertaken was not complete. Plow the dam again and again. The cost was rising. The suspension sword was hanging as the Hornbie started its work while England was not allowed on the head, and so the winnability would not have been delayed further. He wanted to complete this dam by doing anything and hence, trying to do it without speaking anything, Ramji allowed Shivaji to search the statue of the goddess.
Ramji Shivaji started working. Smaller boats are invited. Local fishermen’s help was sought. The nets were thrown into the sea, and once the nets were lifted, the hand became heavy. According to Ramji Shivaji’s dream, after finding the net out of the net, he really found three great idols of Mahalakshmi, Mahasaraswati and Mahakali. Ramji Shivaji asked the hornbill to show the images of his vision and fulfilled his vision and requested the place for the establishment of the goddess. Hornby asked to replace the present Mahalakshmi Deol in the place of installation of a statue and replace it with idols. According to the order given by Hornby, the statue was temporarily placed in that place, but later the Worli dam was completed without any obstruction. After completing the dam, Ramji Shivji spent 80 thousand rupees in that time and built Mahalaxmi temple, Mahalaxmi and Mahakali and Mahasali and Mahasaraswati, two of his sisters, were very devoted.

Thronged with devotees and tourists in large number throughout the year, the temple is a must visit if you are visiting Mumbai.
