These islands earlier had been an individual piece of land owned by empires before being captured over by the Portuguese. Charles II had won these islands as dowry and gave it on rent to the East India Company. The seven islands then merged with Trombay and Salsette to form the southern part of the city.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/9-lip-smacking-street-foods-in-mumbai-you-must-try\/\">9 Lip-Smacking Street Foods In Mumbai You Must Try<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_A_naming_phenomenon\"><\/span><strong>#2. A naming phenomenon<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>A culture fact about Mumbai would be that the patron goddess-Mumbadevi is the origin of the name of the city. In Marathi, the meaning of her name stands for \u2018mother.\u2019 Also, another theory to this would be the split up for the name. \u2018Mumba\u2019 is the name of the goddess, and \u2018aai\u2019 in Marathi stands for mother, which again adds up to the same meaning. Being the beautiful bay that Mumbai is, the Portuguese named it \u2018Bombay.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/apps-to-help-you-after-moving-to-a-new-city\/\">Apps That\u2019ll Help You Settle In After Moving To A New City<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_A_buzz_of_the_bus\"><\/span><strong>#3.

Mumbai&#8217;s local train system is one of the largest in the country, offering commute options to different places over the city. Another interesting travel fact about Mumbai is the bus service. The bus service in the city was one of the first in the country to run successfully in the city.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3148\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"facts about Mumbai\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885-450x236.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885-20x11.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885-225x118.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_1080398885-900x471.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_A_Dabbawalla_score\"><\/span><strong>#4.

Most office goers prefer home-cooked food, and the dabbawallas have derived the perfect solution. These 5000+ dabbawallas are usually split-up into 200 teams of 25 people each, as they manage everything from the pick-up to delivery by themselves. If you weren&#8217;t already impressed, Forbes awarded a six-sigma rating for quality assurance for the process. The dabbawallas not only made it big by delivering food all over the city, but they also won the hearts of countless in the city of Mumbai. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/mumbai\/appliances\/rent-induction-cooktop\">Ghar ka khana<\/a>, anyone?<\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3147\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"facts about Mumbai\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004-450x236.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004-20x11.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004-225x118.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.rentomojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/shutterstock_431412004-900x471.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_A_flamingo_bingo\"><\/span><strong>#5.
