Mumbai Coastal City of India is also the largest city in India. It has many historical places in this city. Where will we take you today I will tell you about this place in detail.
Gateway of India:
Today we came to visit the Gateway of India. I reached this place with my wife in the morning. There was a cool breeze due to the sea which was very beautiful. It was also presenting a good view. It was very nice to see the waves. The famous hotel where there have been attacks is the Taj Hotel, but it has been heard that a few days ago, a restaurant of the same hotel was attacked on the 26 of the 11. It was started in 1911 and its construction was completed in 1924. The name of the person who designed it is George Wittet. After walking around the sea we found out that Billions of people come here in a year. Now there is sunlight but still, I am surprised that many people come here even in the sun. And it is crowded here, there were many photographers who were taking very beautiful pictures of people. I asked him to take pictures of me & my wife. He took a picture. The picture is very beautiful and good, so I gave him the money he asked for. After watching, we caught the ferry boat from there to Elephant Cave. There were other people with us who were sitting in the ferry boat. After some time. We found that we had the wrong ferry boat which would only turn us around and take us back to Gateway. Then they smiled and let us know that we had been pranked. After that, we went to our hotel and plugged in our mobiles, etc. to charge. So brother as I Told you earlier. Here people are different and come from different countries and they tell you how they feel and here you also get reviews of that place. A New culture to him To discover the best to travel. It's a good moment. After that, we left here and moved to the next place.
Elephanta Caves:
Elephanta Caves is a world heritage site. And these caves means temples because only for the Hindu god Shiva. Today we will take you to this place today. My wife has just gone out. First, we went From Gateway of India to Elephanta. We took a ferry boat and sat on top of it. We pay extra to sit on top. When we were on the way here we saw the natural beauty here which we and all other travelers were enjoying a lot.
When we reached Elephanta, I found out that the Hindu god Shiva's 5 caves are here. There are many other caves here but do you know why this place is named Elephanta, today we will tell you that too. The Portuguese came to occupy India where they put their abode and they saw here that there was a great stone shape of an elephant.
They thought of Protecting this area and since then the name of the place was changed to Elephanta. We have started our journey. We will have to cross 120 stairs to reach the end. Now we are in. After entering you will have to buy another ticket from here. Which has a price of 40 rupees. As I told you earlier it is a big rock Elephant shaped but now he is not here, he was kept In Victoria gardens zoo in 1987 by UNESCO.
It has been given the title of a World Heritage Site. This title is given to very few places, one of which is Elephanta. As soon as We are in the cave, we got to see very old idols and pillars. Some idols were also broken. Why is it broken? I do not know. But when you come, you will find some idols broken here.
The idols here are very well carved So this was our first cave where we came. There are many poles here that have a very good design. People take their pictures and selfies here. We have come to cave number 3 which is a complete wreck and it didn't look right at all. Why so much time? After the passage, it has completely turned into ruins.
This bar is not being given as much attention as cave numbers one and two. Some repairing work was also going on here. We Did the same as before and when we went to the 4th cave. It looked very beautiful. When we looked from where we were standing it was very cool.
My wife said let's see inside. What is the atmosphere like inside? It looked very good from the inside too. The next cave was number 5. As I told you that among the most visited caves here, these caves are very popular.
This seemed to us like a room cut in the middle of the stones which looked very good. So the monkeys here are very mischievous, if you are carrying food, they snatch it from you.
If you carry some food or drink with you, keep it hidden or else these monkeys will snatch it from you. We roamed here for a while and then we went out on the spot.
Marine Drive:
Today we came to Marine Drive. It is also called Subhash Chandra Road. It is a sea road about three kilometers long that Begins with Nariman and goes up to Babul. We heard that It's a great place to relax and spend a beautiful evening.
It is the most visited place at night in Mumbai. It is one of the famous places. We got a Cap here. It's almost Three o'clock at night. We also had booked the train first class ticket earlier but the train was still full of people so we took a cab. The people were walking here even at night.
Now we come to the Marine Drive on reaching here, I saw many people who are sitting there even late at night. We were here before coming. Don't go out here late at night but still, the place was full of boys and girls. At this time, the police came here and started chasing everyone away. I was surprised to see that it was always full. Or it's Sunday night, so people are gathered here.
After a while, the police left this place and we thought we would sit there because there were many people already sitting there. First, we were thinking of going to a hotel and eating. Then we thought we were getting a great sea view here so we'll do something else online and will eat while looking at the sea which I will enjoy a lot. It is now 3 o'clock at night but there are still many restaurants open and food.
But it is such a thing that it is three o'clock in the night, so many have closed. It's closed for sit-down meals, but there are plenty open for indulgences. It was a lot of fun here at this time and We think If we come there in the afternoon It might not be as much fun as it is now Because every facility is available for now.
A whole night of fun and enjoyment and also the rising of the sun. Me and my wife's heart was happy to see after this My wife and I ate a pizza at a nearby restaurant which was delicious Here people have fun all night. If you want to come at night or during the day it depends on you.
Coming here during the day it's also good because there is a great picture you can take and also there are many photographers available for you. These moments can also be made memorable. We had a great trip here.
We also ate a lot of street food from here. The local food is easily available from the stall of anyone from all over India who came to Mumbai. He definitely comes to roam around this place.

It has been almost seven days in Mumbai today It is now six o'clock in the morning so the whole place is dark and today our plane is done we going to Sanjay Gandhi National Park, So we're out after a long journey we reached the park I come here, we find that there are no plastic water bottles allowed.
There is a steel bottle worth 10 rupees will be found here. You can bring water yourself and pour it in. My wife and I are not used to drinking outside water, So we took our water bottle and shifted.
Now we are going in and tell you what I got to see here and how it is going here. We are sitting inside the vehicle from which we have to go 15 km further. This car is absolutely safe all around And it looks like we are in a cage. After some time we reached here, now it is seen that all the people are entering from here, all are in their vehicles.
Going a little further, we also got to see many birds' my wife Happy right here and I said that was starting and we will go inside for a while and then our driver told us that this entire forest, 1412 Square Kilometers, is spread over.
Right now, these people can't tell exactly how many loins there are, but it's about 2020 Counting there are 672 loins. The next count is approx. Will be going in 2025 far off us. In one place I was seen sitting eight to ten lions. It looked like the whole family was sitting there which is a very interesting sight to watch.
After watching for a while we moved a little further to where we saw some leopards which were also mounted on some trees and some were sleeping. After wandering around the place for some time. We went out. When we got out, we saw some people coming by bus.
We asked how many people came on their bus and he said, There are 33 seats in a bus. About 34 people can come comfortably on this bus. So now our safari is complete.
