Queen’s Necklace, Mumbai: A Look At Breathtaking Images Of The Jewel

The Netaji Subhashchandra Bose Marg, famous as Marine Drive is a 3 km long promenade along the road. It is an inverted C-shaped six lane concrete along the coastline in South Bombay. Pallonji Mistry constructed both the road and the promenade. Palm trees are lined along the promenade.

The northern end of Marine Drive has the Girgaon Chowpatty and the adjacent part links to the Nariman Point which is at the southernmost tip whereas the Malabar Hill and Babulnath are to the northern tip. Marine Drive is on reclaimed land which faces west-south-west and the Back Bay is a part of Arabian Sea.

The bay behind the city got the name Back Bay because initially the City of Bombay was a small township around Fort St. George of the former Portuguese Casa da Orta. It faced the harbour, known as Front Bay and so the bay behind the city is Back Bay.

Marine Drive is well known as the Queen’s Necklace because at night time the street lights glitter like a diamond necklace around the sea. It is a sight worth watching. Most of the lined-up buildings here are in an art deco style which were constructed by the wealthy Parsis. They were quite popular during the 1920’s and 1930’s.

Marine Drive is one of the most important and famous tourist destinations in Mumbai. It gives a wonderful view of the beach and the shore. Also, it wasn’t a pre planned tourist destination but it eventually turned into an attraction with marvellous beauty.
