With the presence of major automobile

‘Detroit of India’. Some of the most popular
tourist attractions in the city include, Santhome Basilica church,
Fort St. George, Government Museum, Marina beach, Pulicat Lake,
St. Mary’s church, and Valluvar Kottam Kodambakkam.

Surrounded by the Western Ghats, Coimbatore is a
vibrant city in Tamil Nadu that is renowned for its textile
industry. The Vellingiri
Hill Temple and the ancient Perur Pateeswarar Temple add to its
cultural richness.

Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay, is the financial
capital of India and one of the most populous cities in the world.
Located on the west coast of India, along the Arabian Sea, Mumbai
is the heart of the Bollywood film industry and a hub for
commerce, fashion, and entertainment. The city’s skyline is a mix
of colonial-era buildings, modern skyscrapers, and bustling
streets that reflect its dynamic and diverse culture.
