Nestled on the southern tip of the city, the Afghan Church in Mumbai is one of the historical churches that offers a truly unique experience. With its stunning Gothic architecture, the church tells countless stories of honour and sacrifice, making it a site steeped in history and significance.
Officially known as St. John the Evangelist Church, this remarkable structure was built in memory of the soldiers who perished in the First Afghan War (1839–1842).
Last year, Sarah and I visited this iconic site, but we couldn’t cover it as the church was undergoing extensive restoration work. It was worth the wait—a whole year—to finally share its restored glory with you.
