Practice English Speaking&Listening with: Gateway of India | Fashion Street Ride | Cycling in Mumbai
Where will this road take us to?
Hey guys - we have finally reached Gateway of India!
It was a 40 kilometer ride on cycle!
It's not easy to ride so far on a cycle!
The roads in this area are really very smooth!
If you are into cycling, do visit this area
We started riding in the morning at 6:30am
We got a little bit late
But we managed to cover 40 kilometers one way
We are planning to go back on cycles
So, when was the last time you came here?
This is the first time
This is my first trip to Gateway of India
I have been to this area a lot of times earlier
But I never got a change to visit this monument
Dad never stopped the car while passing by
So this is my first trip to Gateway of india
Even though I have stayed in Mumbai since 20 years
So as you can see, you can rent speed boats here
You can take them to Elephanta Cave Islands or Alibaug
This will take less time, but it's a bit costlier
You can otherwise take the low cost, but slower ferry ride as well
Even these ferries can take you to
Elephanta Caves or Alibaug
But this will take more time
Around 60 minutes to Elephanta Caves
if you opt for ferry
But it is very cheap and you can even
carry your cycles on it
We are not gonna take the ferry today
maybe some other day!
The market that you see here is a very
well known market in Mumbai
It is known as the Fashion Street
You can purchase all types of garments here and
If you are aware what a first copy in clothing brands is
the one which is very close to the original but
it is not actually the real brand!
You must be very good at
bargaining if you want the best outcome of your shopping here
the more you can bargain the better price you will get
for obviously, good material!
The quality of clothes here is really good
Now we are returning from Gateway of India
and this market lies on the way
We came here via a different route
but now we will go via Marine Lines
and there is a famous Irani cafe on the way
which Zovi knows about so we will also
visit that cafe!
We had our breakfast near Gateway of India
so we are having just Irani tea here, quite famous
and with it, having cake
this is what wehave ordered, and the ambience here is
kind of old and rustic, but it feels really good
people here share tables, as this remains crowded
say hi!
do you like the frooty?
all of you?
so we will head back home now and the distance is about
36 kilometers
we'll connect back on reaching there
So we have reached Haji Ali which you can
see right in front
we are not going there
there is a dedicated way from the
main road
which you can see in the distance
so today we have shown you too many places
but this video would have been incomplete without this place
this is the iconic Siddhivinayaka Temple of Mumbai
It is a very well known and huge Lord Ganesha temple
So that was it, our ride to Gateway of India
going and coming via cycle
It was our LONGEST cycle ride at a stretch
about 82 kilometers (yayyy!)
we avoided the Western Express highway while
going due to the heavy traffic
but we took it while coming back as it was the shortest route
and also we were in no condition to ride any longer
It was a great experience
we took a couple of breaks on the way
We also ate samosas near Gateway of India
which is essentially a junk food item, but since we were very hungry
we roamed around and had a fake burger too
oh yes, there was a little shop
selling mini veg burgers
which he calls fake, it was nice (NO - it was horrible!)
we also went to Kyani Cafe
it is an old bakery
it is actually an old and famous Irani cafe
we also met a budding 12 year old youtubing
kid over there
while coming back we also
covered Siddhivinayaka Temple, from the outside
and Haji Ali, and what else?
we did not have much time left and also had to come back home
so we covered from outside
whatever we could cover, we did those places
and also Fashion Street, which many of the city people would know
it's a famous market with open stalls
there is a huge variety of cloths
even for men because at many
places, men don't have much variety
yes, that is all! If you liked our video
