Religious Hot Spots of Mumbai

Siddhivinayak Temple Idol Of Ganesha


They say Mumbai was actually some stray islands floating near each other, which eventually joined hands to make the financial capital of an ever growing India. The abuse that Mumbai has been subjected to is not funny at all. But even after all this, the Mega Metropolis still survives. You know why? Because it is being looked after by the God Almighty. It may seem funny to some and ridiculous to others, but for the believers, this is the only reason Mumbai still exists on this planet. Babulnath Temple in the south, Haji Ali in the middle of the sea, Siddhivinayak in the heart, Mahim Church at the link between the town and suburbs, Hare Rama Temple in the Suburbs, Titwala, Jivdani, Ambernath in the satellite regions of Mumbai... all of these major locations of Mumbai have at least one major, famous religious hot spot to protect the city and its people.
So you see, no calamity can ever be too strong to finish Mumbai because of its Gods.
Mumbai is a city where many religions merge together to create a totally unique and exclusive religion which typifies the typical Mumbaikar, notwithstanding the religious riots and crazy times like those.
You need to visit these religious places in Mumbai to get the real vibes of this city of dreams. Here's a list of some of the places with the road directions to reach there too.
