Perched at the top of Malabar Hill, on its western side, just opposite the Kamala Nehru Park, these terraced gardens, also known as Ferozeshah Mehta Gardens, provide lovely sunset views over the Arabian Sea. The park was laid out in the early 1880s over Bombay's main reservoir, some say to cover the water from the potentially contaminating activity of the nearby Towers of Silence.

Kamla Nehru Park in Mumbai

Kamla Nehru Park is among Mumbai's best hunt for entertainment and greatly popular amongst the kids. Perched at the top of picturesque Malabar Hill, Kamala Nehru Amusement Park covers an area of 3,300 sqmts.

Its name owes to Kamala Nehru, the wife of India's first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. With greenery all around and well-maintained and manicured garden, the Kamala Nehru Park is the place where you could chill out with your dear ones in perfect peace. Being at height the park is cool and less humid, quite comforting in comparison to rest of Mumbai.

The Kamala Nehru Park also has a queer structure sculpted like a shoe, which is said to have been inspired by the nursery rhyme - "There was an old woman". If you look down from the park, you can savor one of the most beautiful and panoramic views of the city down below, including the sweeping Chowpatty Beach and the glittering Marine Drive that looks like sparkling Queen's Necklace.
