NEARBY
ATTRACTIONS :

Kala Ghoda Art District
This is a magical place, for those who are willing to look
through the dust and grime, to discover a world of
architectural treasures that are now, being painstakingly
brought into their own. The Kala Ghoda Art District,
covering roughly 2 square kilometres, drew its name from a
huge statue of King Edward VIII astride a black horse (Kala
Ghoda in Hindi) that once graced the centre of the main
thoroughfare. Beginning from the Regal Cinema (behind the
Taj Mahal Hotel, Mumbai), this hub of culture is home to a
heady mix of quaint restaurants, museums, educational
institutions, cultural organisations, theatres and art
galleries, making it comparable to many international art
districts. It is also the venue of a two-week annual
festival (February) that transforms it into a cultural
wonderland
Victoria Terminus, Mumbai
One of the city's largest buildings, this terminus station
of Central Railway seldom is graced with an elaborate
Italian Gothic design. The first train to steam out of this
station, abbreviated as VT, to Thane was in 1853.
Gateway of India, Mumbai
A ceremonial arch built in 1927 to commemorate the visit of
King George V and Queen Mary is located in the southernmost
peninsula of the city. Constructed in honey-coloured basalt,
the design of the gateway was inspired by 16th century
Gujarati Architecture. The changing light of the rising and
setting sun bathes this imposing arch with various hues of
gold, russet and pink. The Gateway holds historical
significance as the last of the British troops leaving
Independent India by sea, marched through its portals.
Marine Drive, Mumbai
This sweeping Queen's Necklace, flickering with a thousand
lights at night turns into the main thoroughfare linking
Malabar Hill and the northern parts of the island to the
southernmost points of Colaba, Cuffe Parade, Nariman Point
and Fort.
Flora Fountain, Mumbai
It stands at a busy five-point intersection in the heart of
the commercial Fort area. The beautifully sculptured
fountain was erected in the memory of the Governor, Sir
Henry Bartle Edward Frere, as a tribute to the contribution
he made to the city.

Chowpatty Beach, Mumbai
This stretch of beach is well known by locals and tourists
alike as a great place to indulge your taste buds in the
evenings. A 'food-plaza' of stalls offering a range of
snacks like 'bhel-puri', 'chaat', 'kulfi' and fresh coconut
water! Chowpatty, situated at the northern end of Marine
Drive, is a great place to witness the annual Ganesh
Chaturthi Festival in August/September when large images of
the elephant-headed god are immersed in the murky sea. As a
part of the city's cleanliness and beautification drive,
Chowpatty is also being given a face-lift.
Malabar Hill, Mumbai
On the northern promontory of Back Bay is the expensive
residential area of Malabar Hill, favoured for its cool
breezes and fine views over Back Bay. The formal Hanging
Gardens, known as Pherozeshah Mehta Gardens, on top of the
hill, Kamala Nehru Park and the Banganga temple complex at
Walkeshwar invite tourist attention here.
Elephanta Island, Mumbai
Rock-cut temples on this peaceful Island, 10 km northeast
of the Gateway of India, are the Mumbai's major tourist
attractions. Believed to have been carved between 450 A.D.
and 750 A.D, the temples are still worth a visit. The main
cave contains large sculpted panels relating to Siva,
including the astonishing 6 metre high triple-headed
Trimurti - in which Siva embodies the roles of creator,
preserver and destroyer.
Juhu Beach, Mumbai
Situated 30 km from the city, Juhu is a crowded beach with
residential apartments and bungalows surrounding it. It
seems as if the entire population of the area descends on
the beach for a breath of fresh air! The central part has
food stalls again, similar to Chowpatty. And a lot more, in
terms of fun-rides for children.
Kalbadevi, Mumbai
A visit to Mumbai is incomplete without a foray into the
bazaars of Kalbadevi, north of Crawford Market. The narrow
lanes of this predominantly Muslim area are hemmed in by
laundry-draped tenements, and a seething mass of people that
bring Mumbai's traffic to a standstill.
