Seven islands of Bombay
The seven islands of Bombay were an archipelago of islands that were, over a span of five centuries, connected to form the area of the modern city of Mumbai in India. The seven islands were gradually physically united through land reclamation projects...
that were merged to create the city of Bombay. The island has a natural harbour to the east and Malabar hills to west.
