Gateway of India is an arch monument built in the 20th century in Mumbai, India. The monument was erected to commemorate King George V and Queen Mary's landing at Apollo Bunder on their visit to India in 1911. It was built in the Indo-Saracenic style; the foundation stone for India's Gateway was laid on 31 March 1913. The structure is an arch of basalt, 26 metres (85 feet) high. The Gateway was later used as a symbolic ceremonial entrance to India for the Viceroys and Mumbai's new Governors. Visitors can see the vast Arabian Sea and the beautiful Taj Hotel on the other side.
