Marine drive is a 4.3-kilometer-long stretch in South Mumbai which
has a natural bay by the side.
Flanked by Chowpatty beach on one side
and Nariman Point on the other, this road is indeed a spectacular vision
at any hour of the day. No wonder, it is also known as Queen’s
Necklace!And the popular quote, "Marine Drive is the mirror to
our soul.
We all come here to gaze at the endless ocean and look within"
perfectly captures the essence of this iconic pride of the city
What makes Marine Drive stand out from the other hotspots is that
every Mumbaikar has a completely different set of memories attached to
it. A place that has witnessed a lot of 'happy and sad', 'first and
last' moments for people in superlative numbers is sure to give an
emotional surge to most of them.
From first dates to final break
ups, this has been a constant element for what people call their lives.
No matter what time of the day it is, this place sees and probably feels
too now, thousands of emotions everyday. From people selling 'Chawpatty
ki bhelpuri chaat' to artists giving lives to their creative
imagination, this has indeed witnessed it all.
Be it casual strolls, late night gorging on icecreams, sitting by the
sea and gazing at it, admiring the beauty, delving deeper into inner
thoughts or just to have a gala time with loved ones, this place
provides a bucket full of moments. With the backdrop of melancholy music
created as the waves hit the shore, it is just the right place for
every age and phase of life.
With Marine drive completing 100
years of being the icon that it is, we bring you a collection of posts
from social media that truly justifies the glory this place has been
endowed with.
