Hello bạn, Hồi trước tớ có search online khi đi Mumbai. Bạn tham khảo nhé Places to Visit in Mumbaifficeffice" /> Mumbai, also known as the commercial capital of ffice:smarttags[/IMG]India, has plenty of places for tourist attraction. As a popular and fast growing city, Mumbai has several visiting places in the city itself; however the best of the tourist places are located a few kms from the city central. In this article we will discuss the best places of Mumbai that you should visit if you go to Mumbai. 1) Gateway of India– This famous monument of Mumbai was made to welcome those that came to Mumbai by ships. This building is 26 meters high and holds an attraction for tourists that visit Mumbai. The bold basalt arch of Mumbai's Gateway of India was built by the British to commemorate King George V and Queen Mary's visit to India in 1911. Designed by George Wittet, the foundation stone was laid in 1911 but the gateway itself was not completed until 1924. The design is a mixture of Hindu and Muslim architectural styles; the pillars are similar to those found in Hindu temples and the windows derived from Islamic architecture. In earlier times, the Gateway was one of the first sights visitors arriving by boat would have seen of Mumbai. These days it attracts a colorful crowd of tourists, hawkers and beggars. Apollo Bunder seafront Opening hours: Daily 24 hours. Free admission ======> từ đây có thể ngắm luôn Taj Mahal Palace & Tower và Marine Drive and Chowpatty Beach rồi đi tới Malabar Hill 2) Elephanta ****s– The ****s of Elephanta are situated about 10+ kms from the gateway of India. The boats take tourists from the gateway of India to the ****s. The temples of the elephanta ****s are cut out of rocks and are of historical significance because it is declared as World Heritage Site by UNESCO. 3) Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) (formerly Victoria Terminus) Now the headquarters of the Central Railway, this magnificent terminus building (commonly known as CST or Bombay VT) was completed in 1888 for the Great Indian Peninsular Railway. Designed by the architect FW Stevens, it is one of the world's grandest railway stations and was added to the UNESCO Wold Heritage list in 2004. A wonderful mixture of Victorian Gothic, Hindu and Islamic styles, the magnificent building is awash with domes, turrets, spires and stained-glass windows, and boasts a particularly beautiful staircase. Not bad for a train station that happens to be the busiest in Asia. Dr D Navroji Road, Fort Tel: (022) 2265 6565. Opening hours: Daily early morning to late evening. Free admission. 4) Taj Mahal Palace & Tower One of Mumbai's favorite landmarks, this grandiose hotel hit the headlines in November 2008 when it became a target of a terrorist attack. Although it suffered significant damage, this building has been wowing visitors to the city since 1903 and is well worth a visit. Built by JN Tata, the Parsi industrialist, after supposedly being refused entry into one of the city's European hotels for being 'a native', it has since hosted everyone from The Beatles to Bill Clinton. Even if you don't stay here, however, it's worth stopping by just to look around. Apollo Bunder Tel: (022) 6665 3366. Website: www.tajhotels.com Free admission. 5) Shrine of Haji Ali Commemorating a Muslim saint who died while on pilgrimage to Mecca, the Shrine of Haji Ali rises magnificently out of the sea sparkling in the bright sunshine. Built on a tiny islet 500m (1,640ft) from the coast and linked only by a narrow causeway, access to the Shrine is only possible at low tide. The Shrine consists of a mosque and daragh (tomb), and both are beautiful examples of Indian Islamic architecture. Off Lala Lajpa Trai Murg Opening hours: Daily 0500-2200, subject to tides. Free admission. 6) Bhuleshwar Market Opening hours: Tue-Sun 0630-2130. Free admission; donations welcome. 7) Mumbadevi Temple This old Hindu temple in the heart of Bhuleshwar Market was built to honor the city's patron deity Goddess Mumbai (after whom the English word 'Bombay' was supposed to have been derived). While not ornate or of particular architectural merit, this crumbling temple forms part of Mumbai's rich history having stood there for the last six centuries. Inside the temple, the modern shrine displays an image of the Goddess Mumbai, and a tiger, the tra***ional carrier of the Goddess, sits in front of the shrine. 8)Malabar Hill Jutting out to the sea from the northern end of Marine Drive, Malabar Hill offers splendid views of Mumbai. The hill is one of the most exclusive residential areas in Mumbai and is home to the city's high-flyers. The state governor's official residence can be found here. The area is also home to the Banganga, an ancient water tank which forms part of the Walkeshwar Temple Complex, and the pretty terraced Hanging Gardens. 9)Babulnath Temple Perched on the northeastern end of Malabar Hill, overlooking Chowpatty Beach, a visit to Balbulnath Temple involves a steep climb (or a cheeky ride up the elevator). Located nearly 305m (1,000ft) above sea level, the ancient temple of Lord Babulnath (Lord Shiva) features elaborate carvings and a grand terrace. Devotees climb to the top to receive darshan of the temple deity and blessings. Near junction of Walkeshwar and Marine Drive Opening hours: Daily dawn-dusk. Free admission; donations welcome. 10) Marine Drive and Chowpatty Beach Built on land reclaimed from Back Bay in 1920, Marine Drive is Mumbai's most famous thoroughfare. Lined with grandiose Victorian buildings, aging art deco apartment blocks and palm trees, the road runs down Back Bay from Malabar Hill to Nariman Point. At night the promenade twinkles with streetlights, which if viewed from above supposedly resembles a string of pearls; hence the promenade's nickname 'Queen's Necklace'. At the top end of Marine Drive is Chowpatty Beach, the only strip of sand in central Mumbai and a favorite spot with locals for evening strolls. Malabar Hill to Nariman Point Opening hours: Daily 24 hours. Free admission. 11) Mahalaxmi Dhobi Ghat (Washing Place) Mumbai's 136-year-old Mahalaxmi Dhobi Ghat is where the city's dirty laundry gets washed and aired. Every day hundreds of dhobi wallahs (someone who does the laundry) beat the dirt out of hundreds of bags of laundry in row upon row of open-air troughs. Dr E Moses Road, Mahalaxmi Opening hours: Dawn to dusk. Free admission. 12) The billionaire’s house - ngôi nhà đắt nhất thế giới (chỉ nhìn từ bên ngoài được thôi ) 13) The famous Khandala– Khandala is one of those places of Mumbai that got a lot of popularity by the Mumbai film industry and the media. It is a sort of hill station, about 625 mt high, located on the Sahyadri Range and is about 100+ Kms from the City. The place holds excellent natural beauty, the hills and the trees makes the place one of the best natural beauty spots in Mumbai. 14) Lonavala – another hill station which is less than a hundred Kms from Mumbai is a place that is filled with natural beauty. The hills of Lonavala are covered with green trees and makes such wonder sight that it is even referred as health resorts. 15) Shirdi if you are ready to take the distance then you must visit Shirdi, the place of Sai Baba where people from around the world comes to visit. It is about 300+ Kms from Mumbai. 16) St Thomas's Cathedral Recently restored to its former glory, St Thomas' Cathedral was the first Anglican Church to be built in the city and the oldest English building in Mumbai. Construction on the cathedral began in 1676 although work was not completed until 1718. The tower and clock were added in 1838 and the chancel in 1863. While the building itself is impressive, the colonial memorials that line the cathedral are of particular interest. Look out for the memorial belonging to Captain George Hardinge whereby Hardinge is being borne away on a huge seashell pulled by two fiery seahorses. 3 Veer Nariman, Fort Opening hours: Daily 0730-1800. Free admission; donations welcome. 17) Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya (formerly the Prince of Wales Museum) Mumbai's biggest, and many would argue best, museum is housed within a grand domed building amid beautiful gardens. It was opened in 1923 to commemorate King George VI's first visit to India and was designed by George Wittet of Gateway of India fame. Inside, the eclectic collections house everything from Hindu and Buddhist sculptures and miniature paintings to weaponry and stuffed animals. The admission fee includes a helpful audio guide.

It consists of James Scott's elegantly curved, arcade terraces with a garden in the middle. It was the first significant piece of the city's redevelopment, which began under the governorship of Sir Bartle Frere in the 1860s. The central gardens are open to the public and offer a lush and shady retreat from the cacophony of the streets. Following independence, the Circle was renamed Horniman Circle, after the e***or of the Bombay Chronicle, Benjamin Horniman, who was an avid supporter of Indian independence. Horniman Circle, Fort area Opening hours: Sun-Fri 1000-2030, Sat 1600-2030. Free admission. 19) Town Hall A distinguished neo-classical structure overlooking Horniman Circle, Mumbai's Town Hall was built between 1821 and 1833, to designs by Colonel Thomas Cowper. It originally stood on Bombay Green, which was the center of the Fort area, and is one of the few remnants (along with the Mint Building) of pre-Victorian Bombay. It's an impressive structure ordered by colonnades, wrought iron staircases and parquet flooring. Today the building is used as a public library and houses over a 100,000 books, of which 15,000 are classified as rare and valuable. Horniman Circle, Fort Tel: (022) 2266 0956.
