Slums in Dharavi: India without beauty, as the hero of the book “Shantaram” saw it. About 1 million people live on the territory of 215 hectares. These are the largest slums in the world, where rent is less than $ 4 per month. It was here that Rukhmanbai lived, the heroine of the book, which gave the name to the foreigner who had arrived – Shantaram.
The historic Chhatrapati Shivaji station is one of the most beautiful buildings in Mumbai and the largest train station in India. It took 10 years to build. Today it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
