Long before the advent of airplanes, high speed trains and express highways, there was only one way through which people travelled overseas – by conquering the mighty oceans. Especially when it came to expanding and maintaining their colonies, many colonial powers relied heavily on the strength of their naval fleets. India’s maritime history is illustrious; starting from the era of the colonial powers in India to developing one of the world’s best naval forces. The Maritime Museum is a fitting tribute to the Naval strength of India.
