Horniman Circle Garden, nestled in the heart of Mumbai’s Fort area, is a serene escape amidst the bustling city. This historic garden, named after the Horniman family, is a beautifully maintained space surrounded by colonial-era architecture. It offers a perfect blend of lush greenery, peace, and a touch of old-world charm. The garden itself is quite spacious, with well-laid-out pathways, manicured lawns, and a variety of trees and plants that create a calming atmosphere. The circular layout gives it a unique appeal, and there are benches strategically placed, making it ideal for a relaxed afternoon or a leisurely walk. One of the highlights of the Horniman Circle Garden is its proximity to important landmarks like the Asiatic Society Library and the Bombay High Court, making it a prime spot for both locals and tourists to unwind. The garden is also home to various events and gatherings, adding a cultural vibrancy to the space. While the garden is tranquil, it’s not completely immune to the noise of the city, but it’s still a welcome retreat from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding streets. The clean, well-maintained environment is a testament to the efforts of the municipal corporation. For those seeking a peaceful spot to escape Mumbai’s frenetic pace, Horniman Circle Garden is a hidden gem that offers both beauty and history in abundance.

The Horniman Circle Gardens is a large park in South Mumbai, India,It is situated in the Fort district of Mumbai, and is surrounded by office complexes housing the country's premier banks. Designed to be a large open space with grand buildings in the middle of the walled city, the area had been known as Bombay Green in the 18th century, while the area around it was called Elphinstone Circle. Following India's independence in 1947, the area was renamed in honour of Benjamin Horniman, editor of The Bombay Chronicle newspaper, who supported Indian independence. Very well maintained and especially clean and empty on weekends. Very picturesque location. Parking available if you want to go inside the park. The street is good for cycling as well as for photoshoots. You may take a walk outside the park as well. It is located right in front of the Asiatic society of Mumbai and is lush green. A place not to be missed when visiting this area of Mumbai. This place has very eye-catching historic British architecture style Buildings.Its located in the vicinity of the Asiatic library, BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange) and RBI (Reserve Bank of India).

One of the most iconic places of old Mumbai. A beautiful garden in the midst of some awesome architecture. It is one of the very few landmarks named after a British person, in post independence India and correctly so. The garden is named after the couragous Benjamin Horniman, the Editor of The Bombay Chronicle. He was one of the men who defied the British attempts at a cover up and shared the detailed horrors of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in his papers, letting the entire nation know about it. One one side you have the Asiatic Society of Bombay which overlooks the Horniman Circle Gardens and the old and new Reserve Bank of India buildings. Close by is St. Thomas Cathedral, the first Anglican church in Mumbai, which was completed in 1718
