Bombay High Court

The Bombay High Court was built from 1871 to 1878. The first sitting took place in January 1879. Designed by Col. J.A. Fuller, a British engineer, the Court is a masterpiece of Gothic architectural style. Its structure is made up of black stone, with octagonal towers. On top of the building, statues of Justice and Mercy inspire upholding the Indian law.

It's highly recommended that you go inside and see a trial for some real entertainment.

Where: High Court Building, Dr Kane Road, Fort.
