MUMBAI

                                                   MUMBAI

   Mumbai is India's largest city with a population of 22.8 million. It is also India's most important commercial center. Mumbai is both old and modern, rich and poor. The street are full of people doing business, selling snacks and clothes, or just living there.

  Money is everywhere in modern Mumbai. India's most important business and banks have their headquarters there. The Bollywood film industry produces more films than Hollywood in Los Angeles.

   Modern skyscrapers and new shopping malls are right next to slums. Sixty persons of the population live with no running water, no electricity, and no sanitation.
    
  Mumbai is on the west coast. The wet season is from June to September. Between November and February it is a little cooler and dryer. The city is best at sunrise and sunset, when the colour of the stone buildings changes from gold to orange and pink. The cheapest and easiest transport is by bus. Trains can be crowded and dangerous . Because of its poverty, Mumbai can be a diffucult place to live, but the experience is unique.

BREZİLYA

                                   IPANEMA PLAJI
 

    Brezilya’da yer alan en ünlü plajlardan birisidir. Adını Brezilya sahillerinde konuşulan eski yerel dillerden olan Tupice’den almıştır. ‘Pis su’ anlamına gelir. Buradaki pis, suyun pis olması değil sahillerin balık tutmaya elverişsiz olmasıdır. Bu sahildeki kum ve dalgalar balıkları kaçırmaktadır.

   Çok kalabalık olan bu plajda eşyalarınıza dikkat etmeniz gerekebilir.Dalgalar çok büyüktür. Dolayısıyla sörf yapmak için de gayet uygundur. Sandalye ve şemsiye kiralaması çok kolaydır.

Güzel havası ve manzarası olan bu sahilden gün batımını izlemek büyük bir zevktir. Gezip eğlenebileceğiniz harika mağazalar, barlar, restoranlar da vardır.Ayrıca insanlar cana yakın ve sıcaktır.

     Tüm bunların yanı sıra bu plaj, pek çok filme sahne olmuştur. 'The Girl From Ipanema' adlı şarkı da büyük yankı uyandırmıştır.
