Mumbai has the dirtiest streets in the world, is the worst city for commute, its taxi drivers are not friendly, and most importantly, it is not just women, even tourists who visit the metropolis do not feel very safe here.

India's financial capital was handed the damning report card by a survey done by an online travel portal which asked tourists to rate 40 global cities on various parameters like cleanliness, public transport, friendliness, etc. Only one city from each country was included in the list of 40. The Asian cities that featured in the survey besides Mumbai were Tokyo, Singapore,Bangkok, Hong Kong, Beijing, Seoul and Kuala Lumpur. 

Tokyo bagged the top slot for cleanliness, safe environs, taxi services and public transportation. It was for shopping that Mumbai won its best rank- No. 27. It figured in the bottom ten bracket in all the other parameters. Mumbai's second best rank was No. 31, for friendliness of the locals.
