Dhobi Ghat in Mumbai is a fascinating open-air laundromat where hundreds of washermen (dhobis) clean clothes in rows of concrete wash pens. A symbol of Mumbai’s hardworking spirit, it offers a unique glimpse into the city’s traditional laundry system. A must-visit for photographers and culture enthusiasts!
Dhobi Ghat, also known as the Mahalaxmi Dhobi Ghat, is a famous open-air laundromat located in Mumbai, India. It’s one of the largest of its kind in the world, where thousands of laundry workers, known as "dhobis," wash and iron clothes daily. The sight of the workers washing clothes in large stone basins and hanging them to dry is iconic and gives a glimpse into Mumbai's unique culture and heritage.#DhobiGhat #Mumbai #IndianCulture #LaundryTradition #Mahalaxmi #MumbaiLife #Heritage

it's very famous historical place and gate of India historyyou can take boat ride and go to cave you can even find dolphin during your ridejust opposite the famous Taj hotel and restaurant is located
The Gate of India in Mumbai is next to the Indian Ocean. The British troops landed in Mumbai, and there were grand welcoming ceremonies and buildings on both sides. The background of the construction of the Gate of India is engraved on it. But the Indian Ocean is really dirty, the water is yellow, not blue at all.

In the north of Mumbai, there is a huge national park with decent scenery but some backward facilities. You can only get in by car and it may take 2 hours to walk. Inside you can see the place where monks practiced 2000 years ago.
Kanheri Caves are located in the Gandhi National Park in Mumbai, in the north of Mumbai, a little far from the city. The park is also very large, suitable for a whole day of hiking, but we don’t have much time here, and hiking in India, haha… First take the train, then take a tuk-tuk to the entrance of the park, but it is still a long way from the caves. There are special charter services at the entrance, including round trips. The caves are still OK, but not as beautiful as Elephanta Island.

The Daharvey slum is the largest slum in Mumbai, India, with more than 1 million people living here, and is definitely the most embarrassing place behind the bustling Mumbai. The environment here is very poor, garbage is littered everywhere, and it is also a true picture of the huge gap between India's rich and poor. You can come and understand it.
India, Mumbai, Farawi slum, known as the world's largest slum, covers an area of 2 square kilometers, with 800,000 people living, and is also the place of millionaires in the slum. Look at the scene, not so exaggerated, but it is really small, dirty, dilapidated! There are poor people all over the world, concentrated called attractions, hope to be rich, need to work together, have their own government!

The famous Prince of Wales Museum is located in Mumbai, India. It has a very British style and typical European architecture. It is a cultural treasure left over from the British colonial period that will make you linger.
【Location】Not far from the Gate of India, but not accessible by foot. 【Tickets】650 rupees for foreigners, including explanations. There is no Chinese, but English. You can press the numbers and check a map, or you can find the numbers on the exhibits and listen to the explanations. Mobile phones, cameras, and video cameras need to pay an additional 100 rupees for shooting, but the management is really lax. Even in the museum, the flash almost blinded me... 【Environmental layout】It is said to be the largest museum in India, hmmm, okay. But the layout is better than the National Museum in Delhi and easy to find. There are three floors in total. Basically, you can go around the center and the main exhibition rooms are all there. The wings are basically not important. Looking up in the hall, you can see the Indian-Mughal style architecture. Basically, most of the castles and palaces seen in India are of this type. If you like to see statues and miniature paintings, you can enjoy it. I especially like the Krishna exhibition hall, which exhibits miniature paintings, but the accompanying words are so poetic and beautiful.

This is probably the only temple in Mumbai, located right near the beach, a must-see. The three goddess statues are beautiful and full of positive energy, and there are steps behind them leading to the Arabian Sea, where you can see the waves crashing against the rocks. In the past, you could go directly to the rocks below, but now it is fenced off. It is still a historic site worth seeing.
The Mahalakshmi Temple is also a very interesting building. You can see a lot of Indian styles here. There are a lot of religious contents here, and it is also a project that requires a lot of tourists.

The Hanging Gardens, also known as the Hain Gardens, are located on top of the Malabar Hill in the wealthy area. Because the garden is located above a reservoir, it is called the Hanging Gardens. I came here not because of how beautiful the garden is, but because I was infected by the locals who came here. They are simple and happy.
The Sky Gardens is also a very beautiful city. The Indian garland is very beautiful. You can see many different things here. There are also many unique landscapes to appreciate in the garden.
