An extremely popular beach, the Chowpatty Beach is also commonly referred to as the Girgaum Chowpatty. This beach is known for its celebration of one of the great Indian festival, the Ganesh Chaturthi where hundreds of people from all over Mumbai come to immerse the idols of Lord Ganapati into the Arabian Sea.
It is indeed a great place to hangout with your closed ones. The evenings are usually crowded with children palying, monkey shows, pony rides, and much more.
