I had been living here for the last 4 years, city is very neat and the thing I like most about the city is its Shopping Malls and Showrooms just like in Dubai and Mumbai, thats why Indore is also known as Mini Bombay , and the other famous thing is its variety of food which is very delicious and very cheap.But one thing which i like most about the city is the politeness of indories, they are soft spoken but at the same time, not helpful as in other cities .
Indore is situated on the banks of the Rivers Saraswati and Khan, Iit was planned and founded by Rani Ahilyabai Holkar and derives its name from the 18th C. Indreshwar Temple. Indore, today, presents a happy blend of a historical past and a modern flourishing industrial city.
