Mumbai, a city of dreams & extremes, has been a muse for many writers & filmmakers across the globe. This bustling metropolis by the Arabian Sea boasts of a compelling past and a brilliant present. The capital of Maharashtra and the much-acclaimed financial capital of India, Mumbai is a jumble of busy beaches, ancient caves, and colonial monuments. Welcome to Mumbai, often known as the colonial era Bombay, where spicy street foods, carefree populace, Bollywood limelight, and colorful festivals create a magical aura that is sure to cast a spell on you!
This Indo- Islamic architecture, with a pinch of Gothic, was built in 1924 to commemorate King George & Queen Mary’s visit to India and was ironically the gateway from where the last of the British troops left the country after India gained freedom. Visit here during evenings when the entire area takes a festive feel as balloon sellers, hawkers, and street food vendors peddle their wares. Click some selfies, admire the spectacular Taj Hotel, and soak in the cheerful ambiance.
A quick boat ride from the Gateway of India takes you to Elephanta caves located on Gharapuri Island. This cave complex, predominantly dedicated to the Hindu God Shiva, is believed to have been carved during 450 AD to 750 AD and is renowned for outstanding Shaivaite depictions and gorgeous reliefs from Indian mythology.
This pretty seaside boulevard, with its row of twinkling streetlights, is rightfully called the Queen’s Necklace. Visit here to watch the sky & the sea change colors at sunrise & sunset and soak in the undying spirit of the city.
Designed by George Wittet of The Gateway of India fame, this spectacular structure is a treasure-trove of arts & artifacts from various parts of the world. Indian sculptures & scriptures, Chinese snuff bottles, European oil paintings, antique coins & weapons, jade & ivory artifacts, and fine textiles are some of the priceless artifacts displayed here.
A bustling beach, much crowded in the evenings, Juhu Beach exemplifies the vibrant spirit of Mumbai. Walk on the sands, eat a roasted corn-on-cob, try some delicious bhel puri, and watch the sun go down the horizon.

Mumbai’s street food is simply delicious! Tickle your taste buds with piping hot Vada Pav, tangy Pani Puri, crunchy Bhel Puri & Sev Puri, and delicious Bombay Sandwich.
