Fishermen village, Worli
5th year Pic 142 - 02-Apr-2014. Worli Koliwada - Mumbai
Worli was one of the original seven islands that constituted the city of Mumbai and inhabited by the Kolis, a community of fisherfolk. The Kolis are said to have first occupied the land around 1100 AD. The 600 years old village is near historic fort of Worli built by British in around 1675. It is famously known as ‘Worli Koliwada’ in Mumbai. These Koli families still do the age old fishing business by getting into the sea early morning and sometimes late night via the connected Mahim Creek and the beach. The famous and huge Bandra Worli Sea Link is what one can see completed from inside the village.
