Just wondering...
If there are 5 people or 10 people or 10 people participating in the walk...
all of them will be taking the same pictures of the same places.... so who
will upload? all will?

Hi,
Great list Vivek. You might want to add pictures from:
The Pearl of the Orient (Revolving restaurant on top of the Ambassador
Hotel)
The Queens Neclace in the evening from one of the buildings at Nariman
Point (Air India Building or The Oberoi Hotel would probably give you the
best result from Nariman Point and from Chowpatty you could get Nariman
Point from Mafatlal Bath Club or Thackers Restaurant).
Cooperage Ground,
Oval,
Cross and Azad Maidans,
Colaba Causeway,
Bombay Stock Exchange Building (Dalal Street),
Bhuleshwar (With its host of temples! 70 odd I think),
Royal Opera House,
Town Hall (Asiatic Library),
Lions Gate,
Old Custom House
INS Vikrant (I think its currently at Oysters Rock),
Tata and Amersons Garden at Breach Candy (next to American Embassy and
Breach Candy Hospital),
Host of foreign Embassies across Malabar Hill, Altamount Road and
Carmichael Road
Antilia (Mukesh Ambani's Residence)
Priyadarshini Park (Napeansea Road),
Raj Bhavan and Varsha (CMs Bungalow on Napeansea Road)
Ruparel College, Jaihind, KC, HR, St, Xaviers College, Cathedral, J.B.
Petit, Campion Schools (and a long list of others - however you may be
quicker getting students from Schools/Colleges uploading pics of their own
campus),
The Holy Name Cathedral at Colaba (I think that is the seat of the
Archbishop of Bombay),
Afghan Church,
R.C. Church,
The Cotton Exchange Building,
World Trade Centre (Cuffe Parade)
Bombay High Court
Koli Stadium and other installations in Navy Nagar, Colaba (You will
probably need Armed forces permission for this)
Hindu Gym, Islam Gym, Parsi Gym, Wilson Gym, Police Gym (Marine Drive)
Churchgate and Bombay Central Stations
Taraporewala Aquarium
Ranibaug Zoo
Gwalia Tank Maidan (from where the 1942 Quit India Movement was launched)
Juhu Airport/Sahar Airport when your doing Juhu Beach
Mantralaya and Vidhan Bhavan
David Sasoon Library and Sasoon Docks
The list goes on - but Im sure you can get an idea from the above.

Subject: [Wikimedia-in-mum] Wikipedia 10th Anniversary celebration Mumbai
photo walk
Hi,
I would like to know the places we should cover during the Wikipedia Mumbai
photo walk.
From my limited knowledge of Mumbai I propose the following places. (In no
particular order)
1) Mumbai CST
2) BMC
3) Flora Fountain
4) Gateway of India
5) Hotel Taj
6) Kaala Ghoda
7) Jehangir Art Gallery
8) Brabourne **Stadium
9) The Wankhede Stadium
10) TIFR
11) Prince of Wales Museum.
12) Mani Bhavan
14) Marine Drive
15) Hanging Gardens.
16) Kamla Nehru Park
17) Chowpatty
18) Juhu Beach
17) Haji Ali Mosque
18) Tower of Silence
19) Chor Bazar
20) Sanjay Gandhi National Park
21) Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Market (Crawford Market)
22) Malabar Hill.
23) Nariman Point.
24) Elephanta Caves
25) Raja Bhai Clock Tower
Please propose any more places that should be added to this list.
I fully understand that all these places cannot be covered within the
2 days 12th and 13th suggested for the photo walk, so let us choose
some for the photo walk and maybe start a Wikipedia Mumbai project
which will attempt to cover all these places over a small period of time
after the 10th Anniversary celebrations.
We will also collect information on these places so that the overall
quality and number of articles on Mumbai will increase. All this can
be done over a small period of time.
