A brief introduction to Mumbai
Home to stunning landmarks, a thriving sports scene, and known for being the epicentre of the country’s film industry, Mumbai will leave many travellers in awe of its sheer beauty.
The Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (also known by its former name Victoria Terminus) stands out from the moment you arrive in Mumbai. Its unique Italian-Gothic style architecture offers little wonder as to why it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Be sure to also visit the Gateway of India, which was built in 1924.
Known as the birthplace of Bollywood, you can learn about India’s thriving film industry by visiting Eros Cinema or wandering through movie sets at Film City.
Mumbai also has a burgeoning sports scene, especially cricket. We recommend spending a day at the Wankhede Stadium, where you can watch the India team or Mumbai Indians play a match.
To experience the city’s delicious delicacies, tantalise your taste buds by trying local favourites such as ‘bhel puri’ (crunchy puffed rice drizzled with a tangy sauce) and ‘vada pav’ (spicy potato sandwiched between buns).
