Bassein: The Forgotten City

Discover the fascinating history of the Vasai Fort, also called 'Vasai Killa' or 'Bassein Fort'. From 1536 CE, when the Portuguese took over Vasai from the Sultans of Gujarat, it became a headquarters for them in the region. In this episode of Tales & Trails, we travel 60 kms from Mumbai and we go back in time, as we explore the ruins of a once grand city, today lost and forgotten.
