"Must-sees in Mumbai" Mumbai Things to Do Tip by Durfun

Mumbai Things to Do: 679 reviews and 1,308 photos

Re the major attractions, there Is Taj Mahal Hotel - an iconic building right beside Gateway to India, both in Colaba, South Mumbai.

Closer to the airport (north-east of it) is Film City, in case you're tempted to see a Bollywood movie in the making!

The hanging gardens & fire temple of Parsis is also an attraction, as are the Beaches of Juhu, and Chowpatty (for snacks).

The business district is around Nariman Point Churchgate, & Chhatrapati Shivaji Railway terminus (formerly Victoria Terminus), the building itself being an architecture fan's delight.

Many choose to visit Elephanta Caves, by boat from Gateway to India.

There are decent residential quarters, restaurants, and clubs around Bandra (West) and Andheri.

Many of the top hotels have some of the best known nightclubs playing decent music and attracting a pretty elite & showbiz crowd!

There are tourist bus tours of the City that can prove to be very helpful to get your bearings. Then use the rail map to get around - travelling by train in Mumbai is an experience not to be missed!! Just choose off-peak hours for most of your trips, yet choose a peak-hour return to experience the city commute at it's busiest. A perfect way to unwind after a day of sight-seeing!
