I also noticed that. in fact, one of my own sweetest memories in life is of Mumbai. I am a Pakistani, born and raised in Karachi, but I have maternal relatives living in India. Iam 43 now, but when I was 9 years old and visited relatives in India, my uncle who was an Indian govenment employee was posted in Mumbai, so I got to experience Mumbai and that visit still lives in my heart as one of my life's most memorable experiences.
I love how you captured the vibrant energy of Mumbai! The mix of historic sites and modern vibes makes it such a unique city. Did you get to try any street food favorites?
Hey man, dk if you're aware but Mumbai is currently undergoing an entire mega transformation with massive infrastructure projects under construction all at once, which you would've noticed in the city, and which may seem a bit chaotic now, but in 5-10 years, trust me this city will be up there with the best .. Just read about the scale of development happening here, cheers..

Mumbai's Architecture seems to be so heavily borrowed from Old London, one can literally feel it through the screen. Feels like home away from home in a weird sort of way.
Places to eat at in Mumbai: *1. Elco Pani puri - (area - Bandra west in Mumbai)* - One of the best Pani puris in town. Very clean & hygienic. They use bottled mineral water to make these. So very safe to eat Pani Puris at this place. *2. Sardar Pav Bhaaji - (area - Tardeo in Mumbai)* - The best and the most buttery Paav Bhaaji on Planet Earth. *3. Bade Miyan - Late night place - is open till 3 am or so (area - near Taj hotel & the Gate way of India in Mumbai)* A late night place, patrons eat in their cars, but has a seating area as well.

Thanks for sharing, Jason; makes me miss my time there when I visited some years ago. I always find your videos to be informative and insightful. Well done.
welcome to my city mumbai india,s most vibrant and happening city and the powerful financial capital of our country mumbai is the only city were you have a robust 24 /7 public transport and the safest city in india for women and tourists
I am a Kolkatan working in Mumbai, the quality that makes Mumbai better than any other city in India is it's great business-friendly nature that leads to job creation, the good work ethics, no communist labour unions (unlike Kolkata), having decent climate and air quality (unlike Delhi), a nationalist local population and the grace of the Gods
Have been living in this city for sometime now , none of the big cities of India r really that good , Mumbai could have been a great city but indias population explotion has hit the city hard, there is hardly any place ,small rooms costs huge ,ppl stand over each other to travel , its a helpless situation.
@@jiuge123 China is a child of Indian civilization. China got bhudism, gunpowder, momos, martial arts from India. Also the name China came from ancient Sanskrit word "Cina". China is now forever indebted to India.
Mumbai is definitely a very interesting city. However I believe it is probably also a very intense and super hectic city to travel because of extreme traffic, dangerous driving everywhere you look, overcrowding (both with people and buildings), and pollution. I’m curious to know why Mumbai was your favourite Indian city instead of more relaxed Indian cities like Goa, Shimla, or even Madurai?
Please visit other parts of India too if you visit again, India is not just mumbai, delhi, kolkata etc. For example visit the North eastern states like nagaland, arunchal pradesh, sikkim.......Also the South Indian states like kerala, tamil nadu and in the north visit shimla, dharamshala and jammu kashmir
On contrary all northern himalayan and north eastern hill states of india are witnessing heavy snowfall, landslide and rainfall. That's how geographically diverse country is india. Hence choosing destinations and seasons while traveling any country is vital and important part of tour iteniary.
foreigners call the this land India but original name is Bharat for more than 5000 years. Indians when talking in other Indian languages than English they say Bharat. India name was given by greeks 2300 years ago made official by British during their rule. after British were gone both India and Bharat name were made official. India does not mean anything but Bharat has deep meaning. "Bharata" literally means: "Bha" for bhava(sensation) - the experience of life, "Ra" for raga(tune) - the tune of life, and "Ta" for tala(rhythm) - the rhythm of life. If you find the right rhythm, life happens beautifully. If you miss the rhythm, you get crushed by the process of life. Bharat - A place where emotions are in tune with rhythm of life.
Hi Jason. I rewatched some of your vids from 7 yrs ago - you were so baby faced then. Lol. I think it's great that you returned to that place where you had that delicious-looking thali. Very nostalgic. Would you consider Mumbai as safe for solo female travellers, in your opinion? (some places in India aren't safe, esp for female travellers)
I think it’s safe for solo females - there’s a lot of liberal-minded people living in the city - it is the home of some of India’s richest/Bollywood after all. I saw a lot of women wandering around in shorts, seems more relaxed compared to other parts of India. Of course, you need to keep in mind the neighbourhood you’re in.
Jason I was on work assignments in Mumbai in 1984 (Bombay at that time), and I saw more of the actual city in your video than I was able to see during my time there. It’s more beautiful than I remember. Greetings from Arizona, US.
every tourist wants to come to mumbai india,s most vibrant and happening city got it apart from goa mumbai is the only city were you find hundreds of tourists from western countries on the streets go to colaba causeway you will know got it

Jason, I think Mumbai has a distinctive culture, history and architecture as!
Asia's 1st stock exchange is here. Mumbai is strictly capitalist hence westerners find it easy to blend.
Totally different from rest of India
India has lots to offer from mountains beaches to historic monuments.. And above all spicy tasty food😊
dangerous - shit as hell ........
