What your day looks like

The 109 basalt rock caves were carved between the 1st century BC and the 9th century AD, and the site served for more than 1,500 years as a centre for Buddhist monks.

As well as discovering the industry of the Dharavi slums, pass by residential areas to get a feel of how people live. Since the community spirit and diversity in an area where people from all over India and from all religions live.
