  34. 5 memorableThings About India • Because to me the Taj Mahal is the most beautiful thing in the world and I hope I can go there to see it. • I enjoyed the coconut water and the “malai’’. • The Elephanta Caves is the best of caves because unlike other caves, it has the three-headed Lord Shiva as well as hisstory. • I liked “Chowpati” because I liked the “Paw Bhaji’’. I also had a ride on the Ferris Wheel and a merry go round. They were both hand-pushed. • The Mumbadevi temple was my favorite temple because my wish came true.
