| MUMBAI |
|

India has always been fixated with Bombay. The dream factory is glitzy, home to Bollywood, a thriving commerce industry, the moneyed swish set and some of the country's best educational institutions, and yet it has a convoluted underbelly comprising gangsters, dirt cheap prostitutes, street children and the world's largest slums. Bombay escapes definition. Everything exaggerated, impossible or unimaginable you might have heard about Bombay is in fact true, and more. Look beyond its glaring disparities and you will discover its seductive spirit that keeps the city going.
Don't Miss
There is so much to do in this bustling city. There is much to eat, much to see, and much to treasure for the rest of your life. However, some places must be given importance, and are listed as follows: Elephanta Caves (exquisite temple caves), Old Bombay with its quaint Victorian architecture, as well as Marine Drive, Chowpatty Beach, and Juhu Beach. There are also plenty nearby places to explore, such as Alibag, Gokarna, Mahabaleshwar, Panchgani, and the famous Lonavala & Khandala.
