Things to do in and around Mumbai for a honeymoon couple.
A honeymoon is the time when two individuals begin their journey
of togetherness. It is a time which people say never comes back.
Mumbai or Bombay offers plenty of opportunities for
togetherness. Though it may not
be the typical honeymoon destination, Mumbai is an option that
handsomely rewards exploration. Hitch a ferry from Gorai beach
and head on over to Essel World, in its famous water park you
can have tons of fun and romance your beloved at the same time.
Or hold hands tightly and enjoy the roller coaster rides. It's
an experience that will get you closer, literally. Make a wish
for a prosperous and happy married life at the Siddhi Vinayak
Temple or the Haji Ali Mosque. Share a spicy bhelpuri at
Chowpatty. Enjoy the view of the majestic Gateway of India from
the top floor of the Apollo Bar at the Taj Mahal Hotel or sip
coffee and sample the flavoured hookahs at Mocha. If you want
some peace and quiet from the hustle and bustle of the city
visit Matheran 50 kms east of Mumbai. The views from Matheran
are fabulous especially at sunset and you can take a romantic
walk hand in hand down the numerous walking tracks. The most
enjoyable aspect of Matheran is getting there. The only way is
to take a toy train from Neral Junction to the heart of the hill
station. The two hour ascent and 90 minute descent is an amazing
experience especially as the train passes through the "1 kiss
tunnel". Another great day trip is to the Elephanta Islands 10
km northeast of the Gateway of India. Elephanta is easily
reached by boats, which run every hour till early afternoon,
daily from Apollo Bunder. The beautiful rock cut temples
dedicated to Lord Shiva are best visited on a weekday instead of
the weekend. All in all a honeymoon in Mumbai will provide you a
lifetime of happy memories.
