I had the chance to take these Mumbai Photos during a trip in March 2012. I had three days to spend in this vibrant (and sometimes chaotic) city, where traffic rules seem to be non-existant. With a friend of mine I flew in via Brussels and we resided in the legendary Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, one of the leading hotels of the world. I had a perfect balcony view on the Gateway of India as well!

In Mumbai I visited plenty of sights, driving around witk Tuktuks and cabs. I often went to the Colaba, the famous coastal drive in the south to take some Mumbai Photos. From then on its a quick walk or drive to further sights: Crawford market, the train station, Mumbai University and Ghandi’s home Mani Bhavan. You also need to check out the Haji Ali Mosque (very crowded, don’t get your shoes stolen) and the famous washing place, Dhobi Ghat.
