Take a Best of Mumbai’s exclusive Malabar Hill, at the northern end of Back Bay, Banganga Tank is a sacred oasis where it feels like time has stood still for centuries. The tank is a contrasting microcosm of the fast-paced city and one which many locals aren’t even familiar with. This is understandable, as secluded Banganga Tank isn’t somewhere that can be randomly passed by.
Our Friendly well experienced English Speaking Guide who is Born up & Rise up there and he still lives at Banganga Residence.
Visiting Banganga Tank provides an exceptional opportunity to submerge yourself in the history of the city, and learn about how it evolved from seven sparsely populated islands to the bustling metropolis it is today. Banganga Walk is flanked by a narrow street lined with temples, homes, and dharamsalas (religious rest houses). It forms the route of the holy parikrama, a walk around the tank on foot, which Hindus believe to have immense purifying benefits. There’s also a dhobi ghat which is Mumbai’s most famous open-air laundry.
