dc.descriptionNarrow lane between modern building on left and smaller older houses; Sion is the last locality within the City limits of Mumbai, to the south. In the 17th century the village formed the boundary between Mumbai and Salsette Island. The name comes from Portuguese Jesuits (who controlled the area from 1543) who built a chapel on the hill near the present-day railway station and named it after Mount Zion (Sion) in Jerusalem. The Dharavi slum lies just to the north east. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 7/26/2014)en_US
