About Mumbai

Mumbai grew from a cluster of islands into a major port under Portuguese and then British rule, and its trade and mills made it India's commercial heart. The Victorian Gothic and Art Deco buildings of the south still line its waterfront. It is also home to Bollywood, and its energy comes from the mix of finance, film and street life.

TravelDaddy verdictBig, loud and glamorous, and best taken slowly.

A practical first trip balances the must-sees with one unscheduled half-day.
