Did you know that other than Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, Mumbai is one of the only three major metropolises in the world which has had a significant Portuguese influence?
This October, we present a live session on how the unique culture of these pre-British settlers has historically, geographically and socio-culturally shaped the city of Bombay. The Portuguese influence has indelibly permeated the city’s culture across it’s neighbourhoods, enclaves and suburbs.
Our panel of experts will discuss the early shaping influence of the Portuguese on the way the city was built and developed and its impact on the city’s religious and social history, architecture, urban infrastructure, language, rituals and customs.
Join us to know more about the fascinating history and enduring legacy of the Portuguese heritage in Mumbai!
