Sagar Upvan Garden — Attraction in Mumbai

• WARNING PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY *

There is a nominal entry fee to this garden, however even after charing the visitors this Garden has not been maintained to it’s basic standards. This park is not at all safe and secure for multiple reasons i.e (no proper gardening, broken and dirty benches, unstable walk-ways, Zero lighting, no proper fencing, dangerous insects and spices, dirty toilets, ETC) which would be experienced and witnessed with your own eyes if by mistake you visit this place. Visit on your own RISK. I would be writing a letter to the concern department and authorities for restoration of this beautiful heritage garden which is located on the tip of south Mumbai. I will personally raised this issue with Mumbai Port Trust and World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to seriously work on the improvement of this garden and make it nature friendly for the visitors specially for children and...

The garden also has a small hillock in the middle and a glassed cactus garden. Plenty of flora. It also has rolling slopes and a long running track perfect for walkers and joggers. If you have a keen eye, you can even try to spot Mr. Ratan Tata's house from the shore. Truly the landscape is the best part about this garden.
