Welcome to Bombay!!!

Hi there Meekuji and Moh, Namaskar!!! Hope the two of you are doing very well and wish you guys a fun day ahead : )

Most emojis are also clickable links to maps. Hope your phones are charged, if not, stop and charge somewhere.

Rocky Beginnings

Start at Rocks ๐Ÿชจ near Nariman Point

Go northwards โ€” thankfully only option along the sea else you guys would be going south for sure ๐Ÿคฃ
Walk along the Marine Drive upto Trident (this hotel too was attacked during 26/11) take a right between it and the iconic Air India building. Btw not that its a big deal (for then hardly profitable company) but this buildingโ€™s rental income alone used to be as much as Air Indiaโ€™s operating profit annually.

Getting back to the walk in the sun. Keep going straight to towards Vidhan Bhavan take a cab from there to Gateway Of India โ›ฉ๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ check out the adjoining not so famous hotel. I think they call it Taj Mahal Palace Hotel ๐Ÿงณโœˆ๏ธโ›ฑ๏ธ.

From there a short walk gets you to Jehangir Art Gallery ๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿ–Œ๏ธ or if time permits take a cab to Asiatic Society Library/Flora fountain ๐Ÿ“šโ›ฒ first and then go do the Gateway track.

No One Misses This

Gateway Of India โ›ฉ๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ

Walk First Art Later

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya ๐Ÿ“œโŒ›๐Ÿ›๏ธ๐Ÿบ

Elphinstone College ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ›๏ธ

First place where I took admissions and left, set off a theme in my life ahaha ๐Ÿ˜Ž

David Sassoon Library ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ›๏ธ

Army & Navy Building ๐Ÿช– ๐Ÿซก โš“

You will get many Sugarcane Walas around here have one if health situation allows itโ€ฆ used to do that with great joy in the Summers of 2011 :)

Oldy Vibey

Surprised you guys are considering this.

Note: You can go from BSNL to Library or the other way around. All these places are super duper old and hence have some story or the other associated with it.

Asiatic Society Library ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ›๏ธ

Horniman Circle Garden ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿชด๐ŸŒ

Flora Fountain ๐Ÿ—ฝโ›ฒ

BSNL โค๏ธ ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป โค๏ธ ๐Ÿ“ž ๐Ÿ’ผ

Back To Old Ways And The Sea :)

KC College ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ›๏ธ

*Second place where I took admissions and left,after attending for a month. Wake Up Sid was shot here or in the one next doors. *

HR College ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ›๏ธ

Sister college of KC, both are in one campus, former for science and latter for commerce. Wake Up Sid was shot here or in the โ€ฆ said it already.

Brabourne Stadium ๐ŸŸ๏ธ

Few matches still held here for broadcast, most donโ€™t, fairly old
Keep walking along and then we get back to Marine Drive again. This is specifically where I used to sit all the time, back in 2011
Now you are back here for sunset.

Check out the ice cream parlour from 1953 K. Rustom & Co. ๐Ÿฆ

She Loves Me / She Loves Me Not

Totally depends on time and energy available. Perhaps later when the street lights come on.

CSMT station ๐Ÿš‰

Take a platform ticket for sure, walk around for a bit.

BMC building ๐Ÿข

McDonalds/burger king down south nearby

In case you guys even more confident, instead of taking a cab to Asiatic Library take the cab straight to Kyani & Co Irani Bakery ๐Ÿฐ. It was established in 1904 and is like going on a small time traveling adventure. Just have tea and mawa cake if food isnโ€™t what you guys are looking for. If this looks unlikely in the afternoon, you guys visit this place before you head to CSMT in the night.

Back 2 Hotel

Ab kya padhna hai? Itni padhai pehle ki hoti to Urmiji would have been proud.

By the way you guys totally donโ€™t need to follow this itinerary. Just mentioned some places you guys can check out, thatโ€™s it.

Enjoy : )
