shops and vendors on the Colaba Causeway and the Sassoon Dock. Attractions
include The Regal Theatre, a popular cinema showing a mix of Bollywood and
Hollywood films, The National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA) and The Jehangir Art
Gallery. A long walk down the Marine Drive promenade will take you to Chowpatty
beach (a sight to behold in the evenings, with fairground rides, street performers
and food hawkers) taking in the Flora Fountain, Hutatma Chowk (Martyr’s Square)
and the St Thomas Cathedral. Nearby is the Bombay Stock Exchange building and
the Jewish David Elaiyahoo Synagogue and David Sassoon Library, as well as the
Elphingstone College buildings.
Elephanta Island is about an hour’s boat ride from The Gateway of India and
features the stunning Elephanta Caves, which date back to 600AD and attract more
visitors each year than the entire city of Mumbai.
