India tours and travel takes you to Mumbai, the commercial capital of India, which originally consisted of seven islands called Colaba, Mazagaon, Old Woman's Island, Wadala, Mahim, Parel, and Matunga-Sion.It was these islands which were later joined together for the formation of the city. A tour to Mumbai would let you have an insight into the history of Mumbai, which is ancient yet modern.
The city of Mumbai soon developed as a trading port because of its fine harbor and the number of merchants who were attracted from other parts of India. Migrants to Mumbai included sizeable communities of Parsis and Gujaratis, and south Indian Hindus fleeing Portuguese persecution in Goa. Their arrival, and that of later immigrant groups, laid the basis for city's celebrated multicultural society. Within 20 years, the presidency of the East India Company was transferred to Mumbai from Surat, and the town soon became the trading headquarters for the whole west coast of India.
