Are you still confused with the two famous gates of India? Do you really think twice before identifying the locations of the gates popularly known as India Gate and Gateway of India? If yes, I am here to clarify your confusion and make it easy for you.

Gateway of India: Located in Mumbai the financial capital of India. Gateway of India is an arch monument built during the 20th century. This was raised to honor the landing of King George V and Queen Marry during their visit to India. Gateway of India is on the bank of the Arabian Sea.

The Confusion: Many of us still have the confusion about the location of both the gates, during my school days I used to find it very difficult to remember the locations and many times I went on to give an incorrect answer.
