Golden Triangle & Kite Flying Tour in India – Famous Tourist Attraction of India
March 1st, 2010Mumbai Travel – Lasting Impressions of a Traveler
December 24th, 2009
Somewhere underneath the vast overcrowded urban explosion, lays a cluster of seven disjointed islands, collectively called Mumbai. Formerly called Bombay, Mumbai is the business of India. According to records available, the city of Mumbai was first established by the Hindu rulers from the Deccan Plateau, followed by the Muslims & the English.
Mumbai has been a trading port, since time immemorial and thus important economically. The economy of cotton was scaled by the establishment of cotton mills in 1854. The spice naive British saw huge trading potential and thus established regular shipping lines for cotton, spice and tea trade, between Mumbai & London.
When British Governor Gerald Aungier set up camp on Mumbai Island, he established the judiciary, drained the malarial swamps, built the first docks and invited migrant workers from other parts of India.
Mumbai started to experience overpopulation, poor sanitation and political unrest. The Indian National Congress (later, the Congress Party of India), held its first meeting for Indian Independence. Despite the first Indian film industry; opposition to British rule grew strong. Mahatma Gandhi, commonly known as the Mahatma (’Great Soul’) lived on Laburnam Road upon his return from South Africa, launching his Quit India campaign.
Fast-forward two hundred years and Mumbai is India’s ‘Maximum City’ bold, brash, fast and frenetic, always faddish, fashion-obsessed and undeniably animated in all aspects of its life.
Three centuries of development have transformed seven scrubby islands into a mighty metropolis of towering apartment blocks, colonial mansions, seafront promenades and air-conditioned shopping malls. If Delhi is the seat of history and Kolkata the seat of culture, Mumbai is the address of film and fashion – many leading designers are based there and the Bollywood movie machine churns out a staggering one thousand films a year.
Mumbai is where Indian fantasies of wealth and glamour engage in a bizarre dance with poverty and slums, and where economic boom flirts with social collapse. More than 60% of Mumbaikers live in shantytowns, yet the city also boasts some of the most expensive real estate in the country. Plans are afoot to build a futuristic new town of towering skyscrapers in the north of this city, transforming Mumbai into the Shanghai of India.
From a visitor’s perspective, Mumbai is a place to shop and dine by day and party by night.
