Best time to visit - January,February,October,November,December
India’s second largest city, Mumbai, previously known as Bombay, is home to a few hundred captivating contrasts and creeds. Mumbai is bursting with frenetic bazaars, shaded avenues thronged by commuters and roads brimming with traffic. The dynamic Maharashtrian metropolis is also a powerhouse of India’s business and trade sectors. But regardless, Bombay’s ethos lies in its biggest railway station - Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, in people-watching and eating bhelpuri by the iconic arch of the Gateway of India and in the exquisite Taj Mahal Palace, that holds a decade worth of stories about both Bombay and Mumbai. A few other places to visit in Mumbai city are Nariman Point - a legion of office blocks in the heart of the city and the Prince of Wales Museum for its eclectic architecture. Watching the sunset with a plate of vada pav at Marine Drive and experiencing the vibrant festival of Ganesh Chaturthi at Juhu Beach are few of the best things to do in Mumbai. One must also travel to Mumbai city to be dazzled by the country’s biggest, and most prolific film and media industry, wherein if you’re lucky, you might stumble upon a Bollywood star or two.

Remember the song Gherua....of Shahrukh Khan and Kajol in Dilwale? And needless to say, the first thing that strikes to your eyes and mind, is the beauty of the wreckage of the plane where the song was picturized.Ever wondered where it is?It is in South Iceland, a country some 8300 KMs from India.But do you think the producers were so cruel to find beauty in the wreckage of the plane to picturize a romantic number around it?No doubt, it is wreckage of a plane which in all probability looks like it crashed there and all the passengers must have died, isn't it? Hold your breath, the fact is, when the plane ran out of fuel, it was crash landed on the black beach by the pilot to save the passengers and all were safe.Wanna go there and click some pictures, Shahrukh Khan style?How does one go to the Black Beach then? Where is it? and how far? What are the other attractions to see here for a backpacker?
Looking for romantic places in Mumbai for couples? I strongly believe that exploring new places with your partner is the most romantic and thrilling exercise in a relationship. Travelling and roaming around, enjoying those little numerable things like watching a sunset together, feeling the ripples of waves touching your feet, sharing ice-cream from a single cone after a tiring day, a long evening walk along the seashore, a plate of bhel puri or chaat or a music concert can add alot of memories and bonding in a relationship. It's time you go to one of the best places to visit in Mumbai with your girlfriend!Here is a list of few places in Mumbai for couples to explore together : 1. Marine Drive
Given the busy lives Mumbaikars lead, compressing a holiday within a weekend becomes almost impossible for them, let alone a day. However, the region is blessed with a strategic location from where one-day picnics and trips are indeed manageable. Not only manageable, the city is encompassed by a kaleidoscope of topography, from mountains to coastal areas. Here’s listed a few spots in and near Mumbai that act as a quick retreat from the fast-paced city life; where one can catch a breath and revive their spirits.
There's a lot to do in Mumbai. There are so many eateries and party places that the city will literally leave you confused. Here are a couple of things that I suggest you MUST do when you come to Mumbai. These places have not as high ratings on Zomato and you may sadly end up missing these.
There are so many articles written about Mumbai and there's tonnes of stuff about the city but I can't resist writing more stuff about it. Everyone speaks about how life in Mumbai is really hard and filled with struggle. Though I am a Mumbaikar, I hadn't ever really tried to find out how much I spend in a day. But this day I was going out and I decided to record how much I was spending everywhere, and I was shocked at the end. I went out with a couple of friends to these places and ended up spending INR 5000 in a day. 1) Nutcracker - It is an amazing place to eat at and it literally has the best food ever. I started with breakfast here. Avg cost- 1000 INR. This is more of a breakfast and brunch place. The menu is designed super light but you can also go here for a snack. It's an amazing eatery in Colaba. The ambience is that of a small Italian cafe.
Thanks to Global Citizen Festival, Coldplay was coming to India, and that had generated a lot of buzz in the country. This was going to be the first performance by the international band in India.
Day 7: Haridwar to Mumbai.We boarded train from Haridwar in the morning to reach Delhi on time as I had a flight for Mumbai in the eve.Truly a trip of a lifetime , made friends and experienced just a different world.Picture Courtesy: #CatchsnapVisit us on : https://www.facebook.com/catchsnapbysonamsingh/

Shopping is a woman’s thing, they say. And is really complicated if you are a girl. It’s a contact sport like football. Women enjoy the scrimmage, the noisy crowds, the danger of being trampled to death, and the ecstasy of the purchase.Honestly I should be the last person you should ever shop with. Even being a girl my choices always have been inclined to masculine outfits.Cargos. Tshirts. Army Shorts And much more!Fashion goes where trend follows. Unlike other places where fashion is the prime look Mumbai stands out. Although Mumbai is the epicenter of fashion, the years I’ve been living here made me realise even if you dress up like a hag and go out, you won’t be judged here.I mean there were times when I used to travel a lot in local trains for my classes and that type of travelling had one hell of a different experience.
It was at the beginning of the year that we decided to finally do it. And somehow, everything fell into place. We booked our flights from Mumbai up to Jammu. Finding accommodation at Katra, the base of the mountain and then further travel up in the helicopter till Sanjhichhat were another set of bookings that were needed to be done.Mata Vaishnodevi Shrine board is impeccable in its organisation – be it arranging rooms or helicopter services. Having made it online, it has made the process even easier. We booked the room at Kalika Bhavan, the Shrine board’s own accommodation, quite in advance. The booking for the trip up the mountain, on the helicopter happened earlier, similarly.Pro tip: When you’re booking the helicopter, make two separate bookings for you onward and return journey. Return bookings afford you only 3 hours within which one has to walk up to the Bhawan, have the darshan and return. That being said, it is almost impossible to walk up to the Bhairav Nath temple which is further up the mountain, within the allocated 3 hours.

Monsoon often makes travel fussy. For people travelling in mountains it makes traveling difficult due to the risk of landslides and road blocks. For trekkers, the trail becomes slippery and people sometimes avoid traveling at that time. How about If I say that there is a place better to travel in monsoon than any other time of the year. I am talking of Pune and its surrounding.
Life is better in hiking boots, Saturday 24th June 2017.Keep close to Nature’s heart…and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the Nature. Wash your spirit clean.We started from Pune at 1.oo pm reached Thakurwadi by 6.30 pm after introduction from group members we start walking towards the plateau the route is pretty easy.It is a steady ascent over bad roads and jungle trails. Difficulty level is easy and almost everybody should be able to do.you should avoid carrying heavy load on trek.
Pune: Giridarshan | Yuvashakti
For starters, Pune has the Imagica theme park with rides, restaurants, and performances that can make any summer vacation a delight. You can stay at Novotel Imagica Khopoli that’s inside the theme park and let the young ones try every ride and slide with no time pressure.A more refined experience in Pune is ABC Farms, where you can take your little gourmet travellers to sample different varieties of cheese. Slightly older kids can accompany you to the Soma Vine Village in Nashik for a tranquil holiday amidst picturesque vineyards. What will they do there, you ask?Hang out at the Red Room that is full of games, try adventure sports such as rock climbing, go cycling on the estates, and swim in the pool. Meanwhile, you can do wine tastings and vineyard tours.
Finally had to say good buy to the picturesque Ooty which rejuvenated my soul !Visit Ooty any time of the year and it would never disappoint you . But if you are an ardent fan of nature , visit this place during monsoons . It would give you a chance to redefine beauty .
It all started with the idea of giving a birthday surprise. Packed the bags and started off the trip from Pune with birthday boy.You can reach Ooty by choosing various routes. One way to reach is via Banglore/Mysore . I opted for nearest airport from Ooty i.e. Pune to Coimbatore via flight and then covered remaining 85km(approx) distance to Ooty by road . You get cabs easily from main road outside the airport.Don't go for the taxis which are inside airport's premises as they would charge higher .
The alarm buzzed at 6 AM and we were supposed to join office but we were 250 Km far from Pune . Within 30 minutes we were ready and left Kolhapur . Made a call to my manager that I will be a bit late as I have an appointment with a doctor and by 11 AM we reached home. Yippie the trip is over successfully time to go to work and I was at my desk by 12 PM responding to the emails and back to normal daily life.My manager enquired me about my health and what happened that I need to visit doctor but deep inside I was smiling thinking about my journey :)Distance Travelled : 269 KmTotal Distance Travelled : 1529 KmDo watch our Entire Journey here https://youtu.be/nzni-bL9QyoThanks for going through my travelogs , do watch the trailer video that i linked with this blog .

Panaji
267 Kms from Kudpan Kh.
This is the capital of the state of Goa and is probably the smallest state capital. Panaji is also the headquarters of the North Goa District and is situated on the banks of the Mandovi River Estuary is the Tiswada Region. The more popular name is Panaji but Panjim is also a commonly used term. This was the name by which the Portuguese used to address this city. When the whole of India got independence, Goa was still under the colonial rule of the Portuguese who freed it a number of years later. The Portuguese effect is what you will get in each and every thing of Goa and Panjim too. The attractions here are the lovely white church, the food that you will get here and of course the different types of building lined on the sides of the narrow streets. These houses are the remains of the various clans who have ruled here including the Latins and the Portuguese. The houses look beautiful and brightly coloured and many of them have simple yet pretty wrought iron balconies too. Many of these are now either resorts for budget concious travellers or restaurants for the ones who love to taste Portuguese and Goan cuisine.Read More
The third day was reserved for Panjim, as there were many architectural building designed by Charles Correa to visit in Panjim. So we started with the Kala Academy. This is a cultural centre which is run by the government of Goa. The centre has a very beautiful green space at the back side which faces the backwaters.
As soon as we woke up on our bus ride, rain greeted us and the weather suddenly became humid, but the views we encountered on our way and the excitement of the journey ahead made us ignore the uncomfortable weather.
Finally the day came. Valentine's day, we woke up early in the morning and left to Panjim for the carnival. After 30-45 minutes we reached Panjim and joined the carnival. Many groups were performing at that carnival, it was something that I can't forget in my life. Well planned, well coordinated. Awesome performance was given by the groups and members who participated in that Carnival . We spent our whole day in that carnival and we enjoyed to the maximum.
We then headed towards panjim, the quaint capital city of this cute state of goa. I had made my list of places to go much before the trip started and hence was searching for a boutique shop called Barefoot. It is difficult to locate but worth your time. The shop has great collection of eclectic home decor products and also pretty everyday wear jewels. The shop is located at 31st Janeiro Road or as the locals say 31st January Road, just near the subway,in a bylane.
A day I was looking forward to, today I took the ride from North Goa to South Goa. I had one beach in mind, very less known, secluded and amazingly scenic. Hollant Beach is a secluded beach close to the airport and very less people know about it. The ride is also awesome, this is one good place to pack a lunch, chill and spend a day. The major attraction is that this beach offers one km of shore line with pool like water and nominal waves. This is the place to come and play a game of water polo with your friends.I had booked a flight next day early morning, this gave me 4 full days in Goa.

So, to continue by own tradition to spent my birthday at some new place that I always wanted to explore, I planned to visit Murudeshwara. As usual, I called my cousin at 11:30 AM and asked him if he will join, and all he asked was what train we will be catching. He must have got used to my absurd habit of dropping sudden plans on him.Three and half hours later, we were at Thane station waiting for Mumbai - Mangalore Matsyagandha express with our sacks on our back and thoughts about how long we will be standing in train before we can rest our butt for some time. Luckily, three hours into the journey, a group of people got down at Mangaon and we got a place to seat. Rest of the journey was completed comfortably (with our nomad standards). We got down at Murudeshwara Road at around 4AM in morning only to see couple of autos waiting outside railway station. This was my first time in an of the four southern states of India and I was really excited and worried about it at the same it. We took an auto from Station to Town and were planning to spend some time outside temple before the doors open. But auto driver suggested us a hotel nearby temple, so we planned to go for it. Place was average and we got the rest needed before starting our day.

Calangute
261 Kms from Kudpan Kh.
We reached our stay late afternoon, a cosy homestay managed by an extremely warm and helpful elderly couple. Dumped our bags and headed to the streets for a nice Goan lunch to soak in the vibe.Walked to the beach post lunch and this is where I realised there was a side to Goa that nobody talks about, the infamous dark side.The approach road all the way to the beach, swarming with tonnes of people. But, this was not the problem; their mentality was.I was absolutely disgusted and dismayed by the absolute lack of character amongst such a large number of men. Men commenting and either trying not to keep their hands to themselves or walk straight into the girls around.The beach was equally crowded but we decided to ignore the scenario and spend the rest of the evening swimming and playing football.After sunset we decided to change and head to Baga for new years eve.No surprises here- the crowd had only gotten worse. Tonnes of drunk, unruly men; no room to enter any party places; bouncers loosing their mind. Walking down Baga hearing men pass lewd comments all along thinking to myself whatever happened to respect? Goa on new year's was supposed to be an electrifying atmosphere with a bit of romance of course but it was everything but that. •note to self and all of you guys reading this: plan the new year's night properly and well in advance•Read More

Today was only about getting the feel of Goa. It was different and not disappointing definitely. An evening walk near the resort on Calangute beach was the perfect end of the day. Few shacks were open with lesser customers but same excitement. The tranquility of seashore with grey clouds all over the sky was soothing to the eyes and mind.
On reaching our guest house, we freshen up and went to beach . It was around 4 a.m in the morning but the aura of the place made us forget all our tiredness. In the morning , Ankit received a call and we got to know that one of our friend is already in Goa with his family.After a peaceful snooze , we took shower and went outside , hired a car and started our local sightseeing while heading towards Panjim . We decided to join the carnival that was supposed to be held on Valentine's day there. After a long fun-filled day, we went back to guest house and took some rest. Spending night on Calangute beach with friends while enjoying the music of water waves ,beer in hands, and cold breeze, gave an awesome feeling!!
7) Calm Sunset at Calangute Beach
We had booked 2 tier sleeper bus tickets and reached Panjim at 8 in the morning. From there, we took a bus to Calangute which took around 40 minutes to reach. We booked two rooms at a hotel near the beach for 1200 a day. It had two big beds, a nice and clean bathroom and a balcony! We anyway needed the room just to crash at night! We spent that day chilling at the beach, drinking beer and eating goan food at one of the beach shacks.
In between visit candolim beach. Than get a stay at Baga or Calangute near beach for 2 nights. visit baga and calangute beach in the evening after sunset candle light. Must Get a temporary Tattoo.
We reached the bus stop at around 8 am, took a bus to Calangute beach and in between saw the lanes of Old Goa with Portuguese houses all around us. We reached our hotel and the rest of the people joined us in the afternoon. Directly we headed to Baga beach, some of us saw the beach for first time and they were captivated by its beauty. The tossing waves of Baga and people jumping into it for a good amount of time really held us.
