My First Visit To My Dream Place

Since my childhood, it was my dream to visit Mumbai – The so-called most happening city in India. And I got the chance to visit there in December 2014.

I was with my family and we stayed there in Hotel Novotel.

It was the time of winters, so the weather was just perfect. People there were very helpful. No matter how busy they were, they always took out time to help us.

We visited religious places like the great Sidhivinayak Temple, Mahalakshmi Temple and the Haji Ali. We saw very  attractive and beautiful sight – scenes like Juhu Beach, Gateway Of India, Essel World and lots more. A visit to the Elephanta Caves was another enriching experience for us. It is bit far from Mumbai and is on small island.We took a ferry from Gateway Of India and it took around 1 hour to reach there.

We went to Juhu Beach which is also famous for it’s street food. There we enjoyed the famous and delicious ‘Vada Pav’, ‘Pav Bhaji’, ‘Missal Pav’.

The best place which amazed me in Mumbai was Marine Drive. Watching sunset there, left me speechless. The view was incredible. It was amazing just to sit and look deep into the eyes of ocean and think of nothing, only listen to the sound of waves. Marine Drive became my favourite spot.

Mumbai never sleeps! Shops and cafes are open till four in the morning. This city is safe for women even at midnight also. We did a lot many activities like cycling, late night walks. We enjoyed roaming in streets and pubs at midnight.

For all these reasons, I fell in love with Mumbai. Experience of my dream place was even better than I imagined.

Now, I always try to visit there atleast once in a year.
