Things to do in Mumbai

Mumbai's most recognized and ambivalent monument is the Gateway of India. The triumphant arch was built to commemorate the visit of Britain’s George V and Queen Mary in 1911 and designed to be the first thing to be seen when approaching Mumbai by boat. Perhaps ironically, it also symbolizes the end of the imperial rule: in 1947 the British troops passed through the gateway marking the country's independence.Mumbai is also the home of many buildings with captivating architecture, such as the Victoria Terminus, the city's principal railway station, and the Prince of Wales Museum, a fascinating construction preserving archeological, religious, and natural artifacts.A visit to the colorful markets and bazaars, such as Crawford Market and Chor Bazaar, is definitely a must-see.
