Bombay (Mumbai), India

Bombay is a rich city of contrasts. Its diversity is manifested in its collection of Western-style skyscrapers and historical buildings and temples. At Chowpatty Beach visitors will find the atmosphere festive and the bright fabrics and crafts tempting. Tours also highlight the 1911 Gateway of India, the Prince of Wales Museum, Marine Drive, the Towers of Silence and the Jain Temple. Or take the launch to Elephant Island to see the sixth-century temples carved out of rocks. Language: English Currency: Rupee
