Hanging Garden

The hanging garden of Mumbai is located on the slopes of a hill making the garden look hanging from the cliff. The Hanging Garden was built in 1880 and is also known as Pherozeshah Mehta Garden. It’s an ecstasy to watch the sun go down into the Arabian Sea in the evening from the Hanging Garden.

The park was laid over a huge reservoir which can carry 30 million gallons of water supplied to the town. The Parsi towers of silence are also located near this park and it is said that the Hanging Garden was built on this water tank in order to save water from being contaminated.
