Gain insight into the history and development of the Jewish community in India, by visiting various synagogues and monuments. Your first stop will be the Gate of Mercy synagogue, a tiny unadorned building that is the oldest synagogue in Mumbai. The Victorian-style Magen David Synagogue presents quite a contrast, as it is fronted by pillars and is quite ornate. As more Jews came to India toward the end of the 19th century, Tifereth Synagogue was built nearby to accommodate them. You will also visit Keneseth Eliyahoo, which many consider to be the most beautiful synagogue in the city. As you will discover, the interior is as marvelous as its stone-and-brick exterior. It features decorated pillars, carved marble and a magnificent stained-glass arch rising to the high ceiling.

Stop for lunch at a local hotel before turning to the Jewish influence that has helped shape the historical and commercial success of Mumbai. The arrival of the Baghdadi Jews brought synagogue life to its prominence. Jacob Sassoon built the Keneseth Eliyahoo Synagogue in the "Fort" area. The synagogue, with its white wooden staircase, decorative floor tiles and fine stained-glass is patronized by both Baghdadi and Bene Israel communities.

While Roman Catholicism continued to thrive in the Mumbai region even after the departure of the Portuguese, the Anglican Church made its presence felt with the coming of the British in 1661. Commissioned in 1715, St. Thomas' Cathedral, the first in the city, contains fine stained-glass windows and choice objects of worship that was selected for the UNESCO Asia Pacific Conservation award.
