Mumbai - A City of dreams...



Everybody knows how I am crazy about Ireland. But no matter how crazy I am about her, I have realized I can't deny the fact but agree that there is no other city like Mumbai. Why do I feel so?? And how can I be certain?? Well here are some of the reasons why I feel Mumbai is one of the best cities.. and why am I so proud to be a Mumbaikar...

1. Its a city that never sleeps - quite literally. You can take a stroll on the streets of Mumbai at 2am and you won't be alone there will always be a flock of people always.
2. You have shops/restaurants  in Mumbai that are open 24x7
3. You have the first local train at 4am and the last one at 1.30am
4. You have a train service every 2 mins & it carry a total of 2.2 billion passengers every year. Incidentally, the world's population is 6 billion.
5. You have a bus service every 5 mins
6. A city well connected with roads/rails
7. We have the Worli Sea Link
8. One of the safest place for women
9. The Most culturally diverse city - you will find people from every culture, race, ethnic, lifestyle here.
10. You can make it big doing anything here, whether it be window cleaning, shoe polishing, or even just by playing a god man.
11. The city where you have the most richest man living just feet away from the most poorest one.
12.We have the Queen's Necklace (Marine Drive)
13. The City with a 'Never Die' Spirit. We’ve survived repeated terrorist attacks, only to go back to work the very next day
14. Lamington Road - The street where you will find all the hardware & software's ever produced whether released or unreleased.http://s3.hubimg.com/u/5147134_f520.jpg
15. One of the most complex rail and road signalling system.
16. We have a national park right in the middle of the city
17.  It's a city where everything is possible.. especially the impossible.
18. Mumbai is the richest city in India and is the country’s commercial and entertainment capital. It has the highest GDP among any city in South, West or Central Asia and is one of the top ten financial centers in the world.
19. The famed dabbawallas of Mumbai are famous worldwide because of their efficiency, with Forbes giving them the `six-sigma rating, which means that they make about one error in six million transactions.
20. Spread over 535 acres, Dharavi is one of the largest slums in the world and has a population of approximately 1 million. The slum has around 5000 businesses and 15 thousand single room factories. The goods manufactured here are exported throughout the world.
