Maharashtra Travel Guide

Bordering on the Indian Ocean in the west, Maharashtra occupies the western and central areas of the subcontinent and extends over the Sahyadri Mountains. The to-and-fro of people caused the state's present cosmopolitan character. At the same time, however, it has been able to keep up its typical Maharashtrian spirit -not in the least because of the various Marathi tribes that still prevail in the region.

Thriving Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay) is the state's capital and one of India's biggest cities. It's a dynamic metropolitan city that has a lot to offer to its visitors. There are plenty of museums to visit, interesting sights to see, such as the Gateway of India, and a lovely promenade along the sea to take a stroll and a sparkling nightlife. Mumbai, or Bollywood, is also the cradle of the Indian film industry. Better known as "Bollywood", it produces nearly as many films as its American equivalent. Don?t forget to pay a visit to the Elephanta Island with its impressive Hindu caves.
