Sanjay Gandhi National Park
Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP), previously Borivali National
Park, is a large protected area in the northern part of suburban Mumbai
city in Maharashtra State in India. It encompasses an area of 104 km2
(40 sq mi) and is surrounded on three sides by India's most populous
city. It is notable as one of the major national parks existing within a metropolis
limit in Asia and is one of the most visited parks in the world.
The rich flora and fauna of Sanjay Gandhi National Park attracts more than 2
million visitors every year. Tourists also enjoy visiting the 2400 years old Kanheri
caves sculpted out of the rocky cliffs which lie within the park.
The undulating green
lands of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park have a natural environment which
tourists love to retreat to for moments of quiet introspection or meditation.
The great views of forests, hills, valleys, lakes and open expanses have a
therapeutic effect on mind, body and soul.
