Mount Mary

Mount Mary

The Basilica of Our Lady of the Mount, popularly known as the Mount Mary Church, is an exquisite example of Roman Catholic architecture situated on a 262 feet high hillock that overlooks the vibrant city of Mumbai. From its vantage point, the church affords breath-taking views of the sparkling Arabian Sea that appears to be painted in myriad shades of blue.

For centuries, the Mount Mary Church has been a beacon of hope and serenity, attracting visitors from all walks of life. The road leading up to the church is lined with quaint shops that sell a variety of items for worship, including flowers and candles. However, the most unique offerings are the wax figurines that visitors can buy outside the church. Devotees offer these figurines to Mother Mary as a symbol of their desires, be it a new home, car, or anything else.

The basilica's grandeur lies in its simplicity, made entirely of stone. The Mount Mary Church is a must-visit destination for those seeking solace amidst the hustle and bustle of Mumbai.
