Heritage Quiz: What’s Your Mumbai Quotient?
With Fiona Fernandez

Presented by Dr. Bhau Daji Lad Museum to celebrate World Heritage Day, 2024

Where are leopards found within city limits? Which famous film family set up a theatre venue in Juhu? Where was the final stop for Asia's first railway train ride? How many steps lead you to the Town Hall in Fort? If you like the sound of such questions and call yourself a 'Mumbai Boss', here's your chance to show off and also win prizes.

The quiz is designed by Fiona Fernandez, a writer, editor, time-traveller and lover of all things Mumbai. She works as Associate Editor at Mid-day, Mumbai, and actively supports heritage conservation efforts across the city. As Associate Editor at Mid-day and through her outspoken protagonists Sir PM and Lady Flora, in her weekly column Bombaynama, Fiona highlights Mumbai's multi-layered urban histories, the conservation of its UNESCO World Heritage Sites and its citizen champions. She will also be discussing her most recent book, "H for Heritage: Mumbai" published by HarperCollins Children's Books. Fiona has also written "Ten Heritage Walks of Mumbai" and "Bombay Meri Jaan."
