Mumbai, better known as Bombay, lies in the east of India in the State of Maharashtra. The economic backbone of the country, a commercial port, financial capital, industrial centre, testimony to the Victorian heritage... But also a huge shanty town, a mafia city blighted by alarming insecurity. Shocking, charming or simple beautiful, Bombay is above all the most modern city in India.
