1st Day In Mumbai

Mumbai, earlier known as Bombay is a place where you live your life. Mumbai is most modern and most happening city of India.A popular reason for the Mumbai to be most happening city of India because: Mumbai allows to just be or even become anyone you want to be.The city is also host to be the world's largest film industry , known as Bollywood.

The best entertainment  spots, the liveliest cultural melting pots, the popular and yummiest meals-Mumbai is a place where you can find that.
Though the seven island that now make up the city have a long recorded history like any other place in India.
So its time to see the most financial,commercial and entertainment capital of India, Mumbai.

Juhu Beach:

Just lye on the beach.Groves of palm trees expansive sandy stretches render immense beauty of the beach.Just click photos to take the beauty with you. Lying on the beach and just take a long breadth and see the silent morning sky.
It is 18 k.m to the north of of the city centers on the shores of Arabian Sea.



The Nutcracker:

A small cafe in South Bombay and it is famous for its adorable interior and scrumptious breakfast options.Only 20 to 25 people can sit at a time, a very small restaurant.
Be before 10 a.m to get seat because after that it becomes quite crowded.
Due to less people the service is real quick and cakes were really awesome there.

You are going to be there for around 1-2 hrs.


Gateway of India:

Located at Apollo Bunder wavefront in South Mumbai, and is the one thing to see when you hit the shores.
It is very easy to reach there, city buses always help you to reach any destination in Mumbai. After 1/2 hr of travelling I reached the Gateway of India.



Gateway of India is one of the most popular and historical moments in India.
When Mahatma Gandhi returned to India from South Africa to fight for our country's independence,he arrived through this arch where he was welcomed warmly by the fellow countrymen who had a lot about him.

People from all around the world come here to see the real history.
This place will take your 1-2 hrs.

Elephanta Caves:

Located at midst of Arabian Sea, a short distance from Gateway of India, for about 45 minutes in ferry.There are many ferries available.There is no exact timing, the timing is after sunrise to before sunset and closed on Mondays.
Entry fees is 10 R.s for Indians and 250 R.s for foreigners and free for children below 15 years of age.

The entrance is from 3 sides so enter from there where the ferry takes you.

There are two groups of caves.The east comprises the Stupa Hill and contains two caves ,one of which is unfinished.To the west are five rock-cut Hindu shrines.The main cave has the famous Shiva idol and is still full of magnificence and brilliance.Besides, the cave has a square mandala and measures around 27 m.The remaining five caves depict Shiva in various forms.


Various temples are cut out of rock, along with columns. The space inside consists of a main chamber and has two lateral chambers, shrines and courtyards. Above the temples you can see the natural rock out of which the temples have been carved. What attracts the visitor most are the Trimurti, Shivalingam, Kalyansundara, Gangadhara, Uma maheswara and Ardhanarisara sculptures, which are all the forms of Lord Shiva.


This will take your 2-3 hrs and the day gets end.

You already know this is Mumbai ,"Mumbai never sleeps".If you want you can go to night club as I went "Prive" and the address is 41/44 Mon Repos ,Ground Floor, Minoo Desai Road, Colaba.You can also visit the AER Night Club.
                                                    Man doing fire stunts at club.


This is not end.This is only 1st day in Mumbai.There are many places to visit still now.
