RealTraveler Traveling Nomad shares adventures off of the cruise ship:

“We hired a taxi driver who took us from the ship to the famous Jain Temple in Bombay which was an absolutely beautiful visit, surrounded by people who are so respective of life that they may tape their mouths shut so that they may not accidentally swallow an insect. The atmosphere, or energy is a better word, in the temple was really something to feel, brief as it was. Then we went to visit the Hanging Gardens, the main garden/park in Bombay. It is a misnomer because there are no actual hanging plants. The garden is constructed over the main water reservoir in Bombay which is why it is called “hanging”. The gardens were lovely and there were many whimsical topiaries, and people were playing tag and having picnics on the grass. It was really hot so we then went on to visit Gandhi’s home and museum. To see where he lived, sit in his library and see the books that he read, read his correspondence, and view the dioramas that depicted his life of nonviolent social protest was really very special. We ate at a restaurant that was recommended by someone on board ship and it was delicious” (more…)
