The
Hanging Gardens, Mumbai, in
Mumbai, India, also known as
Ferozeshah Mehta Gardens, are terraced gardens perched at the top of
Malabar Hill, on its western side, just opposite the
Kamala Nehru Park. They provide sunset views over the
Arabian Sea and feature numerous hedges carved into the shapes of animals. The
park was laid out in 1881 over Bombay's main reservoir, some say to cover the water from the potentially contaminating activity of the nearby
Towers of Silence.
