Mumbai - The City
You will never be bored in energetic and exuberant Mumbai. Being India’s financial and entertainment capital, it has become a varied mix of India’s unique people—a polyglot of religion, language and culture. Mumbai has grown dramatically in the last 50 years with a huge influx of immigrants taking their shot in the city of dreams, to make money. With a wealth of sites to visit, you will have little time to stop and take a breather, so be prepared to be swept up in this beehive of activity.
From the contemporary hustle around the Flora Fountain Statue to the 9th-13th century rock hewn temples of Elephanta Island, there is something to do for all tastes. Films in India are a very important part of daily life, and Mumbai is the birthplace of Indian film industry. Silent movies were made here in the early 1900s. Bollywood produces the most films, in terms of numbers, in the world. See if you can get yourself a permit to visit Bollywood.
