Pictures that will make you want to do Mumbai Darshan

A few days back, a Mumbai based Twitter Community asked us to post pictures of beautiful Mumbai. I found some in my stash and looking at these made me want to go do a Mumbai Darshan right away! For the uninitiated Mumbai Darshan is a popular name for a city tour of Mumbai.

 

Mumbai Darshan Sunset
Spectacular Sunset at Vashi Creek

Mumbai boasts of some spectacular sunsets. This one is pure Gold! Some of the sunsets I remember have painted the city in hues of coral and orange. Divine truly…

Mumbai Darshan Taj Mahal Hotel
Taj Mahal Hotel, Gateway of India

An iconic building, often used as the establishing shot for Mumbai in movies and serials. It is a building that is tightly coupled with the history and heart of Mumbai. More so after the 26/11 attacks. I have heard stories where people came forward and offered voluntary services to repair this beautiful hotel after the attack.

Mumbai Darshan Sailboats
Sailboats at Gateway of India

Mumbai’s equivalent of San Francisco’s Pier39! The Gateway of India is not only a boarding point for Ferry rides, it is also a great place to hang out and view the sailboats.

Mumbai Darshan Chowpatty
Girgaum Chowpatty

Girgaum Chowpatty, a beach that has risen from the ashes like a Phoenix. It had become filthy and was a hub of anti social elements before a massive cleaning drive. Today, it is one of the most popular beaches in the city where families picnic!
