Mumbai (Bombay)

 

19 March 2006  Seven islands off the Arabian Sea form one teeming, thumping, tumbledown city called Mumbai. Everything about it is extreme: noise levels, pollution-rich air, India's busiest airport, Asia's largest slums, the world's most prolific film industry, and one of the world's largest stock exchanges. To visitors so used to Western ways of organization, Mumbai makes little sense. And that is why the city is charmingly giddy and indubitably fun.
