The Gateway of India and the Taj hotel, are both icons of Mumbai and of course the whole of India! The Taj Hotel on the left corner of the photo was targeted by terrorists. However the Taj is a symbol of a resurgent India!

When I visited Mumbai on the 26th. of May, I observed that it was not as clean as it used to be! The water was stinking, the waves brought in dead fish and garbage. Finally Global warming and Pollution seem to have caught up with Juhu!

The rich and the famous in Mumbai park their luxury yachts off the Gateway of India!

The Kanheri Caves near the Sanjay Gandhi National Park are two thousand five hundred years old.The Budhist influence is evident everywhere.The caves have cisterns which were used in ancient times to collect rain water! What a technological marvell! That too two thousand and five hundred years old!
