Earlier pronounced as Bombay, Mumbai is the industrial hub of everything from textiles to petrochemicals, and responsible for half of India's foreign trade. It is a home to the Hindi Film Industry. Notice its rush hours that remain there even if the sun sets. Being the entertainment and commercial capital of India, Mumbai is one of the most sought after tourist destinations.
Occupied since prehistoric times, the area of Greater Mumbai (Bombay) was ruled by the kingdom of Aparanta (north Konkan) in the 2nd century and subsequently, passed under the control of successive Indian dynasties. It was part of the Gujarat Kingdom from 1348 to 1534, when the area was ceded to the Portuguese. In 1664, the British were granted control; three years later, they established a fort and a township. In the 19th century, the seven islands of Girgaum (where the fort was located), Oldman's Island, Colaba, Mazagaon, Parel, Mahim, and Worli were joined and the alluvial lowlands drained, resulting in a single island-Mumbai.
