Mumbai is in all ways a mega-city driven by power, wealth, glamour and fame. It is also a city with strong historical links, wonderful British architecture, museums, beaches, places of worship, and above all, a true galaxy of stars where Bollywood reigns supreme. The seven islands that came to constitute Mumbai were earlier home to communities of fishing colonies. For centuries, the islands were under the control of successive indigenous empires before being ceded to the Portuguese and subsequently to the British East India Company.



During the mid-18th century, Bombay was reshaped with the construction of major roads and railways, the reclamation project transformed Bombay into a major seaport on the Arabian Sea. Upon India’s independence in 1947 the city was incorporated into Bombay State. In 1960, following the Sanyukta Maharashtra movement, a new state of Maharashtra was created with Bombay as the capital. The city was renamed Mumbai in 1996. And in this short period of development, the city has transformed into the commercial and entertainment capital of India.

The main deity is known by the name Vishvanatha or Vishveshvara meaning Ruler of The Universe. Varanasi city is also called Kashi, and hence the temple is popularly called Kashi Vishvanath Temple.


The Kashi Vishwanath temple was last rebuilt and restored to its glory by the Queen of Indore, Rani Ahilya Bai Holkar. She took the initiative to restore the temple and also provided the funds for it. However, later Akbar’s great grandson Aurangzeb had destroyed the temple and built a mosque in its place.

For many years, Zimbabwe was the country that most tourists chose to base themselves in to visit Victoria Falls, but as a result of the country’s political strife and economic instability in the 2000s, most travellers starting choosing Livingstone on the Zambian side instead. Zimbabwe has become a lot more stable in recent years, and tourism is again on the rise on the country, with more and more people choosing to stay on the Zimbabwean side of Victoria Falls.


There’s good reason to visit the Zimbabwean side: the country is home to two-thirds of Victoria Falls, as well as four out of the five waterfalls (Horseshoe Falls, Rainbow Falls, the Main Falls and the Devil’s Cataract) and almost all of the viewing points (16 out of 19), and it’s only on the side of the border the water flows year-round. Exploring the falls from Zimbabwe certainly won’t disappoint, no matter what time of year you go – the panoramas from the top of the gorge are simply astounding.


The town of Victoria Falls, which is situated a conveniently short walk from the falls themselves, has excellent tourist infrastructure, offering a wide range of lodging options, restaurants, bars, curio shops and markets and a smorgasbord of activities and adventures. Zambezi National Park is only a 10-minute drive from town and makes for a great safari experience (especially if you don’t have time to visit other Zimbabwean parks on your trip), with picturesque landscapes and herds of elephant, buffalo, zebra, giraffe and sable in a backdrop of picturesque riverine landscapes.

Ghana wildlife is rich and diverse, with a large number of mammals, reptiles, insects and marine species to be found across the country's varied habitats. Unfortunately there is no one place in Ghana where you can see it all. Furthermore, many of the wildlife locations require long drive times.


There are 221 amphibian and reptile species, 724 bird species, and 225 mammalian species in Ghana. Of the bird species found in Ghana, about 66% live in the country all the time while the others are seasonal visitors. At least 20 species of endemic or near-endemic species of butterflies live in the country. There are several pressures on Ghana animals, including increased human land usage and overhunting. Poachers kill some wildlife for ivory or other body parts to use in traditional medicine.


The tawny eagle is the national animal of Ghana. This bird was chosen as a symbol of protection by strength. Two tawny eagles appear on the country’s crest, where they are seen with vigilant eyes as they are watching for signs of trouble.
