There Are Only 3 Places In The World Where You Can Witness This. One Is In Andheri, Mumbai.

Mumbai, the city of dreams. The city that holds so many opportunities, so much energy, and zest and somehow manages to pull everything together. This city is an open book. Everything is out there. The emotions. The passion. The people. The good. The bad. The ugly.

But, there is an ancient secret hidden in the heart of Mumbai, standing quietly. Except that… it’s not really a secret.

Gilbert Hill, in Andheri West, Mumbai.

Why is it so special?

Because it is older than all the memories of humanity. Older than any tree that has ever been born, than any mountain was they way it is today. It’s older than our concept of time.

The extinction of dinosaurs was the last known mass extinction of life. The meteor hit triggered volcanos all across the world that ultimately formed the structure of land we walk on today.

 

Although, a gigantic bubble of lava froze mid-air in three different places in the world forming 3 gigantic rocks that would forever stand the test of time.

And…Gilbert Hill in Andheri West, Mumbai.

The monolith column of black basalt rock is actually from the Mesozoic Era about 66 million years ago. How cool is the fact that you can see, touch and experience something this old?

Take out 5 minutes of your life and watch this. They can be your 5 most informative minutes of that day.

And if you’re in Mumbai, do visit.
