Mumbai is a city where all major religions co-exist. Wherever you go in Mumbai, you will come across a temple, church, or mosque.
I picked some of my favourite:
Mount Mary Church - I love this church. It's so peaceful inside.
Haji Ali Durgah - this mosque is located in the Arabian Sea
and can be reached only during low tide.
Ghanteshwar Hanuman Temple - The temple of bells.
(Ghant = bell). The belief is that anyone who prays here
will have their wish come true. And when it comes true,
they donate a bell to the temple.
Here are some pics (click on them to enlarge)
