When people think of Mumbai, Bollywood readily comes to mind. Mumbai is the center of India's booming "Bollywood" film industry, which produces over 100 films each year. Film City was built by the Maharastra state government in 1978 to help the Bollywood film industry and provide facilities for it. The sprawling complex covers nearly 350 acres and comes fully equipped with almost 20 indoor studios, as well as outdoor settings for filming.
Unfortunately, Mumbai Film City isn't open to the public unless special approval is obtained. However, it's possible to visit it on an organized tour.
Where: Film City is located in the western Mumbai suburb of Goregaon -- in the vicinity of Aarey Colony. It's easily accessible from the Western Expressway.
