Shivaji Maharaj, Mumbai

This picture of the statue of Shivaji Maharaj, opposite Gateway of India, Mumbai, was taken on a hot Summer day, four years back. Being surrounded by lush frangipani and other flowering trees, the statue looks nice. If you look straight into the horse's eyes, it almost feels like he's charging at you! Most people miss it, since everyone heads straight to the Gateway, without looking around much. This place is worth stopping by.
