Mumbay - Mumbai

Mumbay - bir nechta shahar bo'lgan ulkan shahar tuman ma'lum joylar, restoranlar va turar joylar haqida ma'lumotni o'z ichiga olgan maqolalar.

Mumbay (Marati: मुंबई, Hind: मुम्बई) (davlat turizm idorasi), avvalroq ma'lum bo'lgan kosmopolit metropol Bombay, eng katta shahar Hindiston va davlatning poytaxti Maharashtra. Mumbay dastlab dengizdagi etti oroldan iborat konglomeratsiya bo'lgan Konkan vaqt o'tishi bilan birlashib, Bombay orolini tashkil etdi. Orol o'z navbatida qo'shni Salsette oroli bilan birlashib, hosil bo'lgan Buyuk Bombey. Shaharning taxminiy metropoliten aholisi soni 21 million kishini tashkil etadi (2011), bu shaharni dunyodagi eng ko'p shaharlardan biriga aylantiradi.

Mumbay, shubhasiz, Hindistonning tijorat poytaxti va mamlakatdagi ustun shaharlaridan biridir. Mumbayning tabiati eng eklektik va kosmopolit hind shahri sifatida ramziy ma'noga ega Bollivud shahar ichida, dunyo miqyosida nufuzli hind kino va televidenie sohasining markazi. Bu erda Hindistonning eng yirik yaqindagina aholisi va Britaniyalik Raj davrida Mumbay portining qirg'og'ida qurilgan Hindistonning taniqli shlyuzi joylashgan.

Bombay nomi Bom-Bahiyadan (portugal tilida "yaxshi ko'rfaz") kelib chiqqan bo'lib, bu ism tadqiqotchi Frensis Almeyda tomonidan berilgan. Mumbay Koli jamoatining ma'budasi Mumba devi nomi bilan atalgan.

Tumanlar

G'arbiy va Markaziy, Sharqiy va G'arbiy Mumbay atrofiga tashrif buyurgan kishi shahar atrofi "G'arbiy" va "Markaziy" ga bo'linishini tezda bilib oladi. Shuningdek, "G'arbiy" tomoni va "Sharqiy" tomoni haqida eshitasiz. Bu erda chalkashliklar uchun tezkor tushuntirish. G'arbiy va Markaziy shahar atrofi tegishli hududlarga xizmat ko'rsatadigan mahalliy temir yo'l liniyalari nomi bilan ataladi. G'arbiy va Markaziy temir yo'llar - bu g'arbiy va markaziy qismlarga xizmat ko'rsatadigan temir yo'l liniyalari Hindiston. Ikkalasining ham bosh qarorgohi Mumbayda joylashgan. Harbour Line - bu port maydonlarini Markaziy va G'arbiy yo'nalishlarga bog'laydigan oziqlantiruvchi liniya. Shuningdek, u Mumbayning shimoliy-sharqiy chekkalari va undan keyingi qismga ulanishni ta'minlaydi Navi Mumbay. Ushbu hududlarning aksariyati portga yaqin joyda joylashgan emas. Mumbaydagi deyarli barcha joylarning "G'arb" va "Sharq" tomonlari bor. "G'arbiy" temir yo'l liniyasining g'arbini va "Sharq" temir yo'l liniyasining sharqini anglatadi. Masalan, Mulund (G'arbiy) bu hudud Mulund temir yo'l stantsiyasining g'arbida joylashganligini anglatadi. Manzillarda G'arbiy va Sharq qisqartiriladi, ya'ni Mulund (V) va Mulund (E).

Mumbay - bu ko'chib yurishning ketma-ket to'lqinlarida qurilgan shahar. Mahallalar o'zlarining xususiyatlarini birinchi bo'lib u erda joylashgan jamoalardan olgan. Ushbu mahallalar ro'yxatga olish uchun juda ko'pdir va bu tumanlarni katta tumanlarga birlashtirishning odatda qabul qilingan usuli yo'q. Ammo taxminan, janubdan shimolga qadar shahar shunday rivojlandi.

Tushuning

Mumbay - o'ziga xos nafislikka ega bo'lgan gavjum, xilma-xil metropol. Hayotning tadbirkorlik ruhi va pulsatsiyalanuvchi sur'ati boshqa Hindistonning aksariyat qismiga keskin farq qiladi.

Ism

Shaharning asl nomi haqida juda ko'p munozaralar bo'lib o'tdi. Ba'zilar Mumbay shahrining hozirgi nomi asl ismi; va "Mumba" dan olingan eponym, mahalliy hindu xudosi Mumbadevi nomi va "Aai", ya'ni marati tilida "ona" degan ma'noni anglatadi. Boshqalar Bombeyni Bom Bahiyaning angliyalangan versiyasi, portugallar tomonidan "Go'zal ko'rfaz" ma'nosini bergan va keyinchalik inglizlar tomonidan Bombey davlatining nomi sifatida mashhur bo'lgan deb nomlashgan.

Bu nom 1995 yilda rasmiy ravishda Bombeydan Mumbayga o'zgartirilgan. Bombey va Mumbay ikkalasida ham ishlatilgan bo'lishiga qaramay, "Bombay" dan aniq foydalanadigan odamlar umuman marathi bo'lmagan ma'ruzachilar, "Mumbay" tarafdorlari esa asosan marathi tilida so'zlashadi. G'arbda Mumbay qarama-qarshiliklarga yo'l qo'ymaslik uchun ko'proq qabul qilindi. Shahar ham mehr ila आमची मुंबई ("bizning Mumbay") deb nomlanadi.

Tarix

Hozirda shaharni tashkil etadigan ettita orol Hindistonning boshqa joylari singari uzoq tarixga ega bo'lsa-da, ularning Mumbay shahrini shakllantirish safari haqiqatan ham 1498 yilda, portugallar Gujarat sultonidan tortib olgandan keyin boshlangan. Ular turar-joy, qal'alar va cherkovlar qurishdi (shu jumladan bugungi kungacha g'alati ko'rinadigan portugal cherkovi.) Ammo ular o'zlarining mulklaridan katta qismini ololmaydilar va ettita orol 1661 yilda Angliyaga topshirilgan. Ketrin de Braganzaning angliyalik Charlz II ga uylanganda bergan mehri. U orollarga ham unchalik qiziqmasdi va ularni 1668 yilda Britaniyaning Ost-Hindiston kompaniyasiga yiliga 10 funt evaziga ijaraga berar edi. East India Company asab markazini tashkil etadigan doklar, savdo punktlari va qal'ani qurdi. shaharning. Ular, shuningdek, erlarni qayta tiklash va orollarga qo'shilishning uzoq jarayonini boshladilar, bu faoliyat 1960 yillarga qadar davom etdi.

Ushbu port sanoatlarni jalb qildi va Parsis, Gujaratis va Marvaris (Rajastandan) kabi tadbirkor jamoalar ko'chib o'tdilar va 19-asr oxirida savdo kompaniyalari va fabrikalarini tashkil qildilar. Sanoat mamlakatning turli qismlaridan mehnat muhojirlarini jalb qildi. Ketma-ket ketayotgan migratsiya to'lqinlari shahar va uning mahallalari xarakterini shakllantirdi.

O'zining mavjudligini inglizlarning sa'y-harakatlari bilan qarzdor bo'lgan shahar, shuningdek, mustaqillik harakatida juda muhim rol o'ynagan Hindiston Milliy Kongressining tug'ilgan joyi edi. Tegirmonlarini mamlakatning turli burchaklaridan sanoatchilar tomonidan qurilgan shahar - bu tilshunoslik asosida o'yilgan Maxarashtra shtatining poytaxti. Marati ma'ruzachilar.

1980-yillarda ishchilarning katta xarajatlari va tartibsizliklar ko'plab to'qimachilik fabrikalarini yopishga majbur qildi va shahar tanazzulga yuz tutdi, undan faqatgina 1890-yillarning oxirlarida tiklana boshladi. Aholining ko'pligi infratuzilmani qiyinlashtirdi. 1990-yillarda temir yo'l va avtomobil tarmog'i barqaror ravishda takomillashib bormoqda, ammo bu vazifa kattaligi sababli yo'llar ko'p yillik qurilish bosqichida bo'lib turibdi. Mumbay endi o'zini Xizmat ko'rsatish sohasi markaziga aylantirdi.

1993 yil yanvar oyida Babri masjidi vayron qilinganidan keyin Ayodxya, g'alayonlar to'lqini shaharni qamrab oldi, 1000 dan ortiq odam o'ldirildi, ularning aksariyati musulmonlar edi. Shaharning turli xil etnik guruhlari o'rtasidagi munosabatlar o'sha paytdan beri keskin bo'lib kelgan, bir necha marta terrorchilar g'azablangan (qarang # Xavfsiz qoling) olovga yog 'qo'shish.

Madaniyat va munosabat

Mumbay - Hindistonning eng kosmopolit shahri. Mamlakatning qolgan qismi bilan taqqoslaganda shahar ancha liberaldir. Hindistonning qolgan qismidan doimiy ravishda immigrantlar oqimi bilan, "Mumbaikers" nomi bilan tanilgan fuqarolar, boshqa madaniyatlarga nisbatan ajoyib bag'rikenglik ko'rsatib, uni haqiqiy madaniy erituvchi qozonga aylantirdilar. Ammo bu bag'rikenglik ba'zan tashqi bosim ostida egilib qoladi. 60-80-yillarda marathi bo'lmagan ma'ruzachilarning ish joylarini olib qo'yishlari haqida g'azab bor edi. Hindular va musulmonlar o'rtasidagi 1991 va 1993 yillardagi tartibsizliklar bu ruhga ta'sir qildi; ammo, shahar yana bir bor g'urur bilan haqiqiy "Mumbay ruhini" ta'kidlab, bulardan qutulishga muvaffaq bo'ldi.

Namlik, shuningdek, qish paytida, iqlimi yoqimli bo'lganda kamroq bo'ladi; minimal harorat 17 ° C, maksimal 30-31 ° S dir. Yoz - martdan maygacha, eng yuqori ko'rsatkichlar 30-yillarning o'rtalarigacha (taxminan 80-90 ° F). Bu vaqt ichida issiq va nam bo'ladi. Iyundan sentyabrgacha shahar musson mavsumi bo'lib, shaharni kuchli yomg'irlar qoplaydi. Ushbu mavsumda shahar ikki-uch marta suv ostida qoladi va normal hayot buziladi. Iqlim yil davomida deyarli nam, chunki shahar qirg'oqda joylashgan.

Taksida

Qora va sariq rangli eng yaxshi taksi

Taksilar arzon va mo'l-ko'l (15-18 AQSh dollari sizni shaharning bir chetidan bu boshigacha olib borish uchun etarli bo'lishi kerak). Mumbaydagi taksilarning aksariyati kichik va o'rta o'lchamdagi Fiat avtomobillari (konditsioner bo'lmagan), qora-sariq rangga bo'yalgan (tanasining pastki qismida qora va tomida sariq). Taksida yo'lovchilar sonining qonuniy maksimal chegarasi haydovchini hisobga olmaganda 4 ta. Ko'chalardan taksi haydashingiz mumkin. Biroq, ularning ko'pchiligi juda jirkanch, iflos va ba'zida buzilishi mumkin bo'lgan mexanik tariflarni olib yurishadi. Barcha taksilarda elektron hisoblagichlar bo'lishi kerak, ular biron bir narsani buzmaydi. Agar o'sha kuni siz hisoblagichning mexanik postiga duch kelsangiz, eng yaqin yo'l harakati politsiyasi politsiyasiga shikoyat qilishingiz mumkin. Shuningdek, qonunga ko'ra, qora-sariq taksichi yo'l haqini rad eta olmaydi. Agar haydovchi rad etsa, eng yaqin politsiyaga shikoyat qilish bilan tahdid odatda hiyla ishlatadi.

Taksi narxini hisoblash Mexanik hisoblagichni o'qish va uni tarif kartochkasidan foydalanib tariflarga o'tkazish orqali taksilar narxlarini hisoblash juda murakkab tizim bo'lib ko'rinishi mumkin. Biroq, bu juda oddiy. Faqat hisoblagichni o'qing, narxni hisoblab chiqing, hisoblagich ko'rsatkichini tarif kartasi bilan mos qilib, so'nggi to'lanadigan tarifga etib boring. Minimal narx - ₹ 16. Oldindan to'lanadigan rejalar narxlari boshida yig'iladi va shu bilan hisoblagich ko'rsatkichi qo'llanilmaydi. Kecha to'lovlari uchun (yarim tundan soat 5:00 gacha) narx 25% ga belgilanadi. Bagajning katta buyumlari bilan har bir buyum uchun taxminan ₹ 10 qo'shing. Mumbay Yo'l harakati politsiyasi tomonidan chiqarilgan taksi hisoblagich kartasining o'zingizning nusxangiz bo'lishi juda qulay. Biroq, yo'l harakati qoidalariga rioya qilgan holda, tarif kartasi majburiydir va uni taksi haydovchisi yo'lovchilarga so'rov bo'yicha taqdim etishi kerak. Siz unga onlayn ravishda kirishingiz mumkin Mumbay yo'l harakati politsiyasi veb-sayt. Shikoyatlarni ham xuddi shu sayt yordamida onlayn ravishda yuborish mumkin. Siz taksilar va avtoulovlarning narxlarini oldindan hisoblashingiz mumkin Taksi narxi yoki avtoulov narxi veb-sayt. Siz "Kimdan" joylashuv nomini va "Kimga" joylashuv nomini kiritishingiz kerak, shunda xizmat masofa va yo'l haqini hisoblab chiqadi, shuningdek sizga marshrut bilan Google xaritasini ko'rsatadi.

Agar qo'shimcha yuklaringiz bo'lsa, taksining yukxonasi (magistrali) etarli joyni ta'minlamaydi - bitta katta chamadon u erga mos keladi. Yuqori tashuvchisi bo'lgan taksini yollash yaxshi bo'ladi. Eng yaxshi tashuvchilar uchta katta chamadonni o'z ichiga oladi. Safarni boshlashdan oldin, yukni tashuvchiga mahkam bog'lab qo'ying.

Odatda, standart taksini chaqirishning yagona usuli bu ko'chada do'l tushirishdir. Agar siz shahar chegaralarida bo'lsangiz, bu muammo bo'lmaydi (ya'ni.) Shimoliy Markaziy Bombey va quyida). Agar siz shahar atrofingizda bo'lsangiz, taksini topish qiyin bo'ladi, chunki ular arzonroq avtoulovlar tomonidan raqobatlashmagan.

Rasmiy ravishda sayohat qilish uchun ruxsat etilgan maksimal yo'lovchilar soni to'rttadan - uchtasi orqa o'rindiqda va bittasi old tomondan. Xavfsizlik kamarlari taksi yo'lovchilari uchun majburiy emas va aksariyat standart qora va sariq taksilar hatto o'rnatilmaydi, garchi ularni markali mashinalarda kutishsa.

Moviy va oq rangdagi eng yaxshi taksi

Moviy va Oq (B / V) taksilar - bu yuqori darajadagi jamoat taksisi, bu Qora va sariq (B / Y) taksilarning konditsioner versiyasi. B / V taksilarining barcha qoidalari B / V taksilariga ham tegishli, faqat V / V taksilari konditsioner. Bundan tashqari, V / V taksilardan foydalanish narxi B / Y taksilardan 20% yuqori. Bu konditsionerlar uchun kutilgan mukofotdir, bu Mumbayning issiqligi va ifloslanishiga odatlanmagan sayyohlar va sayohatchilar uchun juda foydali. Bundan tashqari, barcha V / V taksilar B / Y taksilaridan farqli o'laroq, elektron hisoblagichlar bilan yurishadi.

B / V narxining narxi yuqori bo'lganligi sababli, oddiy odamlar odatda V / V taksilari bilan sayohat qilishni afzal ko'rmaydilar va asosan sayyohlar yoki ishbilarmon sayyohlar foydalanadilar. Talab etishmasligi uchun ta'minot etishmasligi ham kutilmoqda. Taksilar tez-tez qatnaydilar, ammo hamma joylarda osonlikcha mavjud emas. Siz ularni har doim temir yo'l stantsiyalari, aeroportlar, premium mehmonxonalar, eng yaxshi sayyohlik joylari va boshqalar kabi sayyohlik punktlarida bo'lishini kutishingiz mumkin. Agar siz yuqoridagi joylardan birida sayohat qilmasangiz va sizga konditsioner qulaylik kerak bo'lsa, lekin taksi izlashga borishni xohlamang, keyingi bo'limga o'tishingizni maslahat beramiz.

Xususiy taksilar

Haydovchilarning aksariyati halol, ammo insofsizlar temir yo'l stantsiyalari va aeroportlar atrofida to'planib, so'rg'ichlarni osonroq topishlari mumkin. Agar siz oldindan to'lanadigan taksida ketmasangiz, taksilarga har doim hisoblagich bilan borishini so'rang. Safar boshida hisoblagich ko'rinishini va bayroqdan tushgan tarif / metr ko'rsatkichini ko'rsatganligini tekshiring.

Avtomatik rickshaw tomonidan

Avtomatik rikshalarga faqat g'arbiy shahar atrofidagi Bandra va markaziy Siondan tashqarida ishlashga ruxsat beriladi. Shahar markazida ularga litsenziyalar berilmaydi.

Yo'lga chiqishdan oldin hisoblagich ko'rinishini va bayroqcha ko'rsatkichini 1.00 (mexanik hisoblagichda) ko'rsatilishini ta'minlang. Agar raqam kattaroq bo'lsa, haydovchi uni yana bir marta bayroqqa qo'yishini talab qiling. Minimal narx ₹ 18. Hisoblagich dastlabki 1,6 km (0,99 milya) davomida 1,00 da qoladi va har 0,10 harakat taxminan 200 m (ya'ni har 0,2 km (0,12 milya) uchun 1,50) ni bildiradi. Narx har bir km uchun ₹ 7 ni tashkil qiladi, faqat 1,6 km (0,99 milya) dan tashqari, bu narx 15 ga teng. Har bir avtoulov haydovchisi haqiqiy RTO hisoblagich tarif kartasini olib yurishi kerak. Siz ushbu tarif kartasini to'lashdan oldin tekshirishingiz mumkin. Agar siz kutayotgan bo'lsangiz va / yoki tirbandlikda qolsangiz, hisoblagich tebranishni davom ettiradi. Mumbay yo'l politsiyasi tomonidan chiqarilgan hisoblagich kartasining nusxasi juda qulay. Bularning barchasi raqamli hisoblagichlarga emas, balki mexanik hisoblagichlarga tegishli. 2012 yildan boshlab yangi raqamli hisoblagichlar odatiy holga kela boshladi va ular tariflarning aniq narxini ko'rsatmoqda, shuning uchun tarif kartasi orqali konvertatsiya qilishning hojati yo'q.

Avtomatik rikshalar avtoulovlarga qaraganda sekinroq va suspenziyalar dahshatli. Homilador ayollar eng ko'p qat'iy maslahat berildi avtoulovlar bilan sayohat qilmaslik, chunki shoshilinch haydash, sust to'xtatib turish va dahshatli yo'l sharoitlari ko'pincha jiddiy asoratlarni keltirib chiqaradi. Avtomatik riksha sekin va noqulay transport vositasidir va juda uzoq masofalarga tavsiya etilmaydi.

Shahar atrofidagi temir yo'l tarmog'i

Aksariyat odamlar Mumbayda sayohat qilish Shahar atrofidagi temir yo'l tarmog'i odatda "mahalliy aholi" deb nomlanadi. Mumbay keng tarmoqqa ega bo'lib, uchta yo'nalish bilan - G'arbiy yo'nalish, Markaziy magistral yo'nalish va Makon liniyasidan iborat.

• Mumbay - bu chiziqli shahar va G'arbiy yo'nalish Cherchgeytdan Dahanu yo'ligacha Mumbayning G'arbiy chekkalari bo'ylab harakatlanadi. G'arbiy yo'nalish Shimoliy-Janub aloqasini ta'minlaydi.
• Markaziy magistral yo'nalish Mumbay CST (Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus), aka VT Viktoriya Terminusidan sayohat qiladi. Kalyan Mumbayning Markaziy shahar atrofi va Thane, ba'zi xizmatlar Karjat, Xopoli va Kasaradan tashqarida ishlaydi. G'arbiy chiziq va Markaziy chiziq o'rtasidagi o'tish nuqtasi - Dadar.
• Harbour Line Mumbay CST (aka VT Victoria Terminus) va Vadala o'rtasida umumiy yo'nalishga ega. The harbour line splits into two spurs, the main one running to Mumbai's Eastern Suburbs and Navi Mumbai, up to Panvel. The Interchange point of this line with the Central Main Line is at Kurla. The other spur of the Harbour Line runs up to Mahim on the Western Line and runs parallel up to Andheri. The interchange stations with the Western line are Bandra and Andheri.

Trains on all lines start operations after 4AM and close operations between midnight and 1AM.Second class travel is very cheap. However, it is advisable to buy first class tickets as the economy class is extremely crowded. First Class can be quite expensive and if four people are travelling together, a taxi might be better.There would always be queues and it would be advisable to buy coupon booklets. Coupon booklets punching machines are available at all stations and the best thing is you will not have to stand in a huge line to buy a booklet. Another option is to buy a Smart card for Railways. It helps you maintain balance like any a gift card with an option to refill it once it goes below the limit. Smart card outlets to buy tickets are available on all stations. They are touch screen based and you can simply follow the instructions to buy a ticket for the right path.

If you are a tourist, you can buy a 'Tourist Ticket'. It costs ₹275 and you can travel in first class compartments of all the three lines during the entire day. Ensure the location of the first class compartment before the train arrives. You may ask fellow passengers or the vendors at the various food stalls. An easier way to spot the location of the First class compartment is to check the station walls painted with red and yellow slant stripes.

Avoid using local trains during rush hour (first class or otherwise). Rush hour is 8:30–10:30AM towards CST and Churchgate and 5:30PM–8:30PM in the opposite direction. If you are traveling during rush hour, don't stand near railway track as you will get swamped by frantic. Take no offense if you are pushed and shoved about, as passengers jostle for a spot. As you near your exit station, ensure that you are as close as possible to the train door, as experienced commuters, will be begin the mad run to be first on, or off, the car before the car comes to a full stop. If you stand any chance of getting on/off before the train depart, you must be equally aggressive in your focus to exit/enter, remember no one will take offense if you make contact with others, as you wriggle by. Last, but not least, exiting/entering a train before it comes to a full stop is not something to be taken lightly, one misstep can send a person onto the rails with an amazing ease! Leave the stunts to the experienced locals.

There are special coaches for women on both classes. These are designated by green and yellow slant stripes, spot these stripes on the station walls and you'll know where the ladies compartment is. These are generally less crowded and safer. But very late at night, it might actually be safer to travel by the general coach than the first-class women's coach, as the latter may be absolutely empty except for you. From 11:15PM-6:30PM the ladies compartment towards the northern end is open to general public. Sometimes they have a cop guarding the coaches, but sometimes they won't. Use your judgment.

Mumbai Metro

The Mumbai Metro connects the western suburbs to the eastern suburbs. Line 1 runs from Versova to Ghatkopar with interchange options available at Andheri (Western Line) And Ghatkopar (Central Line) Railway Station. The travel time is 20 minutes.

You can purchase Mumbai Metro tickets from your smartphone using the ridlr app.

Mumbai Monorail

Mumbai has India's first monorail, it has one line and eighteen stations throughout the city. The fare is between ₹5 and ₹11 depends on your destination station.

By ferry

These are a few intra-city ferry services:

• Gateway of India to Elephanta Caves Fast boats and Catamarans operated by private operators. These are moderately priced. This is only way to get to Elephanta Caves.
• Gorai (Borivali) to Gorai Beach Low cost ferry connecting Gorai Beach/Esselworld.
• Marve Jetty (Malad) to Manori Jetty Cheap ferry (by BEST) connecting Manori and Gorai. Also services for Esselworld (Amusement Park).
• Versova (Andheri) to Madh Jetty Cheap ferry connecting Madh/Erangal/Aksa/Marve.

By car

Travel agents and hotels can arrange private chauffeur driven cars to provide services. Expensive by comparison with taxis, they are the most trusted, secure, and comfortable way to travel around the city. Driving in Mumbai can be difficult, because of poor driver discipline, but chauffeur driven services are very reasonable. These can be arranged by travel companies or online from the countries of origin. Car rental agencies also have services in Mumbai.

Talk

Mumbai is India's melting pot — a confluence of people from various parts of India, but dominant are people from the west, then north, and followed by the south. Marathi is the state and city official language used by State Government agencies, municipal authorities, and the local police, and also the first language of most locals.

However, being India's largest city and main commercial centre, Mumbai is now also home to migrants from other parts of India who do not speak Marathi. A local variant of Hindi, with strong Bollywood influence, called Bambaiya Hindi serves as the "lingua franca" and although almost everyone can understand standard Hindi, you may get an interesting reply from some. Most educated locals will be well versed in Marathi, Hindi and English.

English is widely used in the corporate world and in banking and trading. At most places, you will be able to get by with Hindi and English, as most people you will encounter can communicate in broken English at the very least. However expect to hear more regional languages including Gujarati.

The game of names The names of Mumbai's monuments tell us the story of which way political winds were blowing when they were built. In the late 19th century the British named everything after their Queen, so we had Victoria terminus, Victoria Gardens, and the Victoria Jubilee Technical Institute (built in 1887 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Her Majesty's coronation). In the early 20th century, they named everything after the Prince of Wales. After independence the colonial names could not be retained of course, so they were renamed. Depending on whether the city was suffering from bouts of nationalistic pride or Marathi pride at that time, they were named after either Jawaharlal Nehru (the first Prime Minister of India) or Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj (King Shivaji, who founded the Maratha empire in the 18th century). Often, they were named after Shivaji's mother, Jijabai. The advantage of this was that using Veermata Jijabai ("Courageous mother Jijabai") for a place that was earlier named for Victoria maintains the same abbreviation, so "Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute" (formerly Victoria Jubilee Technical Institute) is still VJTI. For a traveller, the practical problem would be that many places have multiple names. Multiple places are named after Nehru, Shivaji, or Jijabai, so you need to be careful about specifying which place you need to get to. Few important names changes to remember are: 'Victoria Terminus' is now 'Chhtrapati Shivaji Terminus' 'Jacob Circle' is now 'Saat Rasta' or 'Sant Gaadge Maharaj Chowk' 'King's Circle' is now 'Maheshwari Udyyan' 'Kurla Terminus' is now 'Lokmanya Tilak Terminus'

There is a lot to see in Mumbai, but the typical "tourist" sights are concentrated in South Mumbai.

By Indian standards, Mumbai is a young city and much of the land comprising the city did not exist until it was claimed from the sea over three centuries ago. It is therefore, a pleasant surprise to find rock cut caves such as the Elephanta, Kanheri, and Mahakali within city limits.

Colonial buildings

The British built a magnificent city within the walls of Fort St. George, which lies at the southern extremity of the city. Some fine examples of the Gothic revival, Neo-classical style and Indo-Saracenic style are seen within this area. To get the best [South Mumbai] experience, stroll around the wide streets of the area right from Churchgate to Colaba. These areas are all beautifully planned and have wide and clean pavements unlike the rest of the city. Famous monuments to be seen in this area are the Gateway of India, the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (Victoria Terminus) building, the Municipal Corporation and Police Headquarters and the Chhatrapati Shivaji Vastu Sanghralaya (formerly, the Prince Of Wales museum). The famous Taj Mahal hotel is opposite the Gateway of India. The Mumbai University buildings and the High Court are also excellent examples of colonial architecture in the city.

There are a lot of other modern structures to look at in this area. The area known as Marine Drive (right from Chowpatty beach to NCPA) is home to a large number of buildings built in the Art Deco style. Mumbai is second only to Miami in the number of Art Deco buildings. some famous buildings in this style are the Eros and Regal cinemas. The Art Deco and Gothic buildings were added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2018.

Museums and galleries

Some of the most famous museums and art galleries in India are found here. The Kala Ghoda area in South Mumbai teems with them, particularly the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya (Prince of Wales Museum), and the National Gallery of Modern Art. Once again, most of them are concentrated in South Mumbai. Also worth planning a visit is Jehangir Art Gallery, also at Kala Ghoda, displays changing exhibits by notable artists. The plaza next to the gallery also regularly displays exhibits of various artists.

In Nehru Complex in Worli is Nehru Centre Art Gallery at Worli is a gallery dedicated to young and promising talent along with established artists. Also within the complex is a permanent exposition, Discovery of India, which attempts to cover every aspect of artistic, intellectual and philosophical attainment of India through ages. The exposition spreads across 14 galleries and reflects true identity of the country. On the other end of the complex, Nehru Science Centre - which has a separate entrance from Mahalaxmi race course road, has a permanent exhibition on 'interactive and exciting' science related exhibits highlighting science principles in fun yet educational way.

Beaches

Mumbai isn't known for beaches because they have immensely filthy water!Mumbai has a few beaches, including one in the downtown area. But they aren't that great and the water off Mumbai's coast is extraordinarily dirty. The relatively better ones are in the Northwest Mumbai area. However, they are a great place to see how the locals spend their Sunday evenings, with various food and game stalls.

There are other beaches to be found such as the Girgaon Chowpaty(the cleanest one) in South Mumbai, Juhu beach in the western suburbs and Aksa Beach in Malad.The currents don't seem strong, but particularly in the rains, lots of people die from drowning, so avoid getting in the water (especially at Aksa Beach). A word of advice to women: Bombay beaches are not the kind you can wear swimsuits to, particularly two-pieces.

Zoos, parks and gardens

Mumbai has a justified reputation as a concrete jungle, but there are some nice pockets of greenery within the city. It is also one of the rare metropolises to have an entire national park within its borders. (Borivali national park also known as Sanjay Gandhi National Park). You will not visit Mumbai for them, but if you are already here, they make a nice escape from the din and bustle. It also houses the ancient Kanheri Caves crafted out of rocky cliffs, which dates back 2,400 years. Entrance fee: Indians/Foreigns 30/30

The city zoo (Veermata Jijabai Udyan) is in Byculla and is a colonial relic which is surprisingly well-preserved. The animals may look rather emaciated, but the sheer diversity of trees on this lush zoo is worth a trip.

Some city parks are very well-maintained and combine history as well. The "Hanging Gardens" on Malabar Hill offers stunning vistas of the Marine Drive. Opposite the Hanging Gardens, there is another park which is known as Kamla Nehru Park, famous for the striking shoe-shaped structure which has been filmed in various Bollywood movies

Further in South Mumbai, the Mumbai Port Trust Garden, is another hidden gem. This is set off a small side street off the Colaba Causeway 2–3 km (1.2–1.9 mi) south of the main section. Attractive views of the port, the naval yards and sunset.

In central Mumbai, there are the Five Gardens. Mainly used by walkers in the morning, it is a mess in the evenings. But the gardens encircle some historic, art deco residences.

Markets and crowds

Mumbai is probably worth visiting just for its street markets, the hustle of vendors, and the madness of the crowds.Good places are Bandra, Khar and Andheri. If you came to Mumbai and didn't give visit to the highly dense and crowded markets, it means you didn't meet the real Mumbai.

Hawkers and street shoppers don't ask for any legal permission and then set their stalls at the places where they see maximum footfall. From electronics items to fresh food, you can get everything at railway platforms, subway and mains streets.

Modern buildings and malls

Once the British left, the zeal to wipe away the traces of colonial rule was, unfortunately, not matched by the enthusiasm to build a new city that matched the grandeur of the British-era buildings. Now, while the shabbiness of the socialist era is thankfully being replaced by architecture with an eye on aesthetics, the new malls, multiplexes, and office buildings that are coming up are indistinguishable from those anywhere else in the world. Still, they are worth a look, especially if you want to have a look at India's success story. Skyscrapers exceeding 60 stories now dominate the skyline.

For long, Inorbit Mall was the only mall offering a lot of variety for shoppers. Palladium, built within the High Street Phoenix, broke the monopoly of Inorbit Mall. From state of the art interiors to international brands, the Palladium has everything. The new Infiniti Mall (Infinity 2) in Malad also has lots of foreign brands and is one of the biggest malls in the suburbs.Nirmal Lifestyles Mall in Mulund and Metro Junction Mall in Kalyan are two of the largest malls in Mumbai. In the central suburbs, they are quite popular in the city.

Powai is a modern central Mumbai suburb with European looks. Powai houses the Indian Institute of Technology and is built around fabulous lake. Most of the construction is in a township format and is privately built. It houses twenty top of the line restaurants, two large convenience stores, a handful of coffee shops and entertainment areas. Initially built as an upmarket self-contained township, Powai has now grown into a business process outsourcing hub in Mumbai. The township reflects both characteristics; you will often find families shopping and twenty somethings hanging out in tables next to each other.

Religious places

Mumbai has temples, mosques, churches, Parsi agiaries, and even a few synagogues reflecting the diversity of its citizens. While these are naturally of interest if you are a believer, some, like the Portuguese church at Dadar are worth visiting just for their unique architecture.

Siddhivinayak temple of Mumbai is very famous. It is in Dadar and you can easily get a taxi to go to the temple from the Dadar railway station.

The city also boasts of Jewish places of worship predominantly in the area called Byculla, but also in South Mumbai. In this area the three prominent Jewish groups of Mumbai lived. They were Bagdadi Jews, Bene Israelis and the locals who had conveted over a period of time and lived in the hinterland.

There are two very beautiful Hare Krishna (ISKCON) temples that are significant tourist attractions. One is in Hare Krishna land, Juhu, Andheri and the other in South Mumbai, near Gandhi's house. Both have Govinda's pure vegetarian restaurants at the premises. Most tourists appreciate the peaceful experience in the temple.

The Islamic Research Foundation of Zakir Naik is in South Central Mumbai near Dongri. Is popular with people of all faiths. It hosts a vast library of books from all world religions and is a great place to hangout and know about Islamic culture.

Haji Ali Dargah is one of the most visited places in Mumbai. The Dargah Sharief is built on a tiny islet 500 metres from the coast, in the middle of Worli Bay, in the vicinity of Worli. People from different religion and places visit this places. More than 80,000 people visit dargah every week.

One notable monument in the northwest suburbs of Mumbai is the Global Vipassana Pagoda, Gorai, Mumbai. It is a meditation centre that can seat 8,000 people. Vipassana literally means mediation, and the centre runs 10-day meditation courses and 1 day mega courses on Sundays. The courses are free of cost but you would have to register for them in advance on their website.

Qil

There is a lot to do in Mumbai, but lack of space means that for outdoorsy activities, you need to head north, often outside city limits. In the Northwestern suburbs and Thane, you will find opportunities for water sports like H20 at Girgaum Chowpatty. There are two golf courses in the city, the more famous one in Chembur in the Harbour suburbs.

Mumbai has a vibrant theater scene with plays in many languages including English, Hindi, Gujarati, and Marathi. While South Mumbai has frequent performances, the best organized theater effort is at Prithvi theater, Juhu in the Western Suburbs. There are plenty of opportunities to enjoy Indian classical music and dance. While not a patch on the Sabhas of Chennai, you will find frequent performances of Carnatic music in Shanmukhananda Hall, Matunga in the South Central suburbs.

Mumbai is also usually the first stop for Western pop and rock stars visiting India, which they usually do when they are over 50. The Rock scene is very good in Mumbai. These are very safe to go to and are recommended for rock fans. Most bands cover heavy metal acts like Pantera, Six feet under, and Slipknot. To try to find places with specific music tastes try asking students outside Mumbai's colleges.Western classical music performances are rarer. However most classical music performances along with other art forms are regularly performed at NCPA va Tata Theatre, both next to the narrow strip at Nariman Point.

Tourist traps

In a place without clearly displayed price tags (and sometimes even in places with), you will get charged about 3-4 times as much as a local if you seem like a tourist. Take a local with you if you're going to local markets to haggle. Haggling is much louder and ruder in India than elsewhere. Don't be afraid to haggle things down to 1/4 of the asking price. And most importantly remember that almost all stores that sell carpets, jewelry, handicrafts, etc. pay huge amounts of commission (25% up to even 50%!) to the cab drivers, hence avoid tourist taxis, cabs, etc. Another thing to remember is not to haggle just for the fun of it.

Kiber kafelar

Kiber-kafe deyarli har bir ko'chada joylashgan va narxlar ancha past.

Shuningdek, ma'lumotlar xavfsizligi muammo bo'lishi mumkin. Ehtiyot chorasi sifatida parolni kiber-kafeda ishlatganingizdan yoki shaxsiy / inkognito brauzerdan keyin o'zgartiring.

Wi-fi

Mumbayning ko'p joylarida WiFi-ni topish qiyin bo'ladi, ammo deyarli barcha temir yo'l stantsiyalari Google tomonidan quvvatlanadigan "RailWire" WiFi bilan yangilangan bo'lib, 5-10 minut / s tezlikda 45 daqiqa davomida ko'rib chiqishga imkon beradi.

Xavfsiz bo'ling

Mumbaydagi zo'ravonlik jinoyati hindlarning boshqa yirik shaharlariga o'xshaydi.

Xavfsizlikka yo'l qo'ymaslik va o'zingizning atrof-muhitingizga qarab harakat qilish yaxshidir. Xavfsizlik bo'yicha bir necha asosiy maslahatlar:

• Pul va kredit kartalaringizni doimo xavfsiz saqlang. Har doim bir oz naqd pul olib boring, chunki ko'p joylar kartalarni olib qo'ymaydi.
• Ochiq joylarda notes 500 va ₹ 2000 notalarni namoyish qilmang. Mavjud valyuta kupyuralari ₹ 10, ₹ 20, ₹ 50, ₹ 100, ₹ 500 va ₹ 2000 ni tashkil etadi va tender uchun mavjud tangalar ₹ 1, ₹ 2, ₹ 5 va ₹ 10. Sizga kimdir boshqa nominaldagi valyuta kupyuralarini berishidan ehtiyot bo'ling (garchi bu juda kam bo'lsa ham; chunki ular Hindistonning zaxira banki bilan almashtirilishi kerak; Hindistonning markaziy banki). Hindiston hukumati 2016 yil noyabr oyida eski ₹ 500 va ₹ 1000 valyuta kupyuralarini demonetizatsiya qildi.
• Kaali-Peeli (qora-sariq) taksichilari odamlarni, asosan sayyohlarni uzoqroq marshrutlarda yurish, yuk uchun qo'shimcha haq olish, hisoblagichni buzish va aldab, fraction 500ni fraktsiya ichida ₹ 100 yozuv bilan almashtirish holatlari bo'lgan. soniyada va yo'lovchiga ₹ 100 ta eslatmani topshirganiga ishontirishga majbur qiladi. Shunday qilib, aldanib qolmaslik uchun, qatnov uchun Ola va Uber kabi ilovalarga asoslangan taksi xizmatlarini afzal qiling.
• Avtobus va poezdlarda cho'ntak cho'chqalaridan ehtiyot bo'ling. Sizning hamyoningizni yoki boshqa qimmatbaho buyumlaringizni sumkangizning tashqi cho'ntagiga qo'ymang, shunda kimdir sizning e'tiboringizga ham solmasdan uni chiqarib yuborishi mumkin.
• Shuningdek, temir yo'l stantsiyalari, gavjum yo'llar va yo'l signallari kabi aholi zich joylashgan joylarda harakatlanadigan mobil, zanjirli yoki sumkachalarni tortib oluvchilardan ehtiyot bo'ling.
• Poyezdda sayohat qilayotgan ayollar, ayniqsa yuqori darajadagi marshrutlarda, kamida kamida bir nechta yo'lovchilar topilgan ikkinchi sinfda sayohat qilishlari kerak.
• Ayollar (ayniqsa g'arbliklar) odamlar ko'p bo'lgan joylardan qochishlari kerak, ehtimol siz ovqatlanasiz. Odamlar gavjum bo'lgan jamoat joylarida, shu jumladan tungi dam olish joylarida erkaklar ayollarni chimchilashlari yoki ularga tegishi holatlari ko'p uchraydi. Agar bu sizga tegishli bo'lsa, sahnani yarating, atrofingizda sizning himoyangizga keladigan odamlar etarlicha bo'ladi. Umuman olganda, Mumbayda, agar siz doimo o'zingizning xavfsizligingizdan xavotirda bo'lsangiz, baland ovozda sahna ko'rsating. Bu juda gavjum shahar va kimdir doim yonida va yordam berishga tayyor.
• Ayollar hech qachon begonalardan ko'taruvchi asansörlarni olishlari kerak emas. Western women tourists should note that if they visit a disco or pub in Mumbai or India, don't take lifts or even get too friendly with strangers. You will almost certainly get conned, if not worse. Many Indian men presume that if you're foreign you must be easy.
• Don't ever let an auto or taxi you are traveling in pick up any more people, or pull over before your final destination.
• Police can sometimes be almost as shady as criminals in Mumbai. At night, women should ensure if they are ever stopped by police, there needs to be a female police officer present or they are well within their rights in demanding the presence of a woman cop.
• Think twice about eating food that has not been thoroughly heated. This may be especially true if you're eating street food.

Stay healthy

• Food As elsewhere in India, be careful with what you eat. Outside of major tourist hotels and restaurants, stay away from raw leafy vegetables, egg-based dressings like mayonnaise and minced meat are particularly risky. In short, stick to boiled, baked, fried, or peeled goods.
• Water Opinions on tap water vary, but most visitors choose to stick to the bottled stuff. Large bottles of water can be purchased at a very low cost. When buying water from street vendors, make sure the lid is sealed, there have been cases of bottles being filled with tap water, and sold as new.
