Highlights
Welcome to the city that never sleeps! Pulsating, Alive, On the Move, Vibrant, and Fun -- this is Mumbai or as it is still frequently referred to -- Bombay. The most modern city in India, it captures the spirit of the changing pace set by liberalization and modernization. Once a cluster of seven islands, Mumbai was presented to King Charles II in 1661 as part of the dowry when he married Princess Catherine de Braganza of Portugal. Over the years, as colonialism gave way to independence, Mumbai has transformed itself into an entity with thriving markets, business houses and many different communities reflecting a cosmopolitan and trendy atmosphere rarely seen elsewhere. On the surface, it represents the ever-changing face of today's India -- the old coupled with the dynamic new, and yet at its very core, the heart of the city is steeped in Indian customs and values.

The Hanging Gardens are a legendary ancient wonder, believed to have been built in Babylon with tiered terraces of lush greenery and exotic plants. Designed to resemble a green mountain, they showcased advanced irrigation techniques and extraordinary beauty.
Mani Bhawan is a historic building in Mumbai that served as Mahatma Gandhi's residence and headquarters during India’s freedom struggle from 1917 to 1934. It is now a museum showcasing his life, work, and key moments of the independence movement.
Dhobi Ghat in Mumbai is a famous open-air laundry where hundreds of washermen, known as "dhobis," clean clothes in rows of concrete wash pens. It is a unique and vibrant symbol of the city's traditional laundry system and daily life.

About Mumbai
Mumbai is India's restless, glamorous megacity on the Arabian Sea, a city of colonial landmarks, seaside promenades, film studios and street food.
The Gateway of India faces the harbour beside the grand Taj Mahal Palace hotel, and Colaba's streets fill with cafés and markets. The Gothic-revival Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Victorian and Art Deco buildings around the Oval Maidan show the city's architectural ambition.
Top-ranked sights in Mumbai: Gateway of India, Dhobi Ghat, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT).
