Mumbai is a bustling metropolis where people strive to make their dreams come true. The city often rewards those who make the best of everything she has to offer. However, while you work hard to grow personally and professionally, it is also important to enjoy Mumbai’s vibrant culture, flora and fauna and build a solid community you can rely on. If you want to build a well-rounded life in Mumbai, there is no area better than Borivali. Borivali is a happy mix of older, legacy apartments that have peppered the area for decades and newer, swankier residential projects fitted with modern amenities. Regardless of what your home looks like, the minute you step out, Borivali ushers you into a life rich with culture and the glory of nature.

Green Spaces:

Ask anyone who has lived in Borivali, and they will tell you that the area’s proximity to the verdant Sanjay Gandhi National Park is one of its best features. The sprawling national park is a welcome reprieve from the city’s usual bustle. Once you enter the park, it almost feels like you have stepped into a different world, far removed from the noise of traffic or the uber-urban atmosphere. Whether you visit with friends, family, or children, you can pick your own natural trails to hike along. Even a short walk within the park will put you face to face with breath-taking wildlife, birds, insects, and a variety of plants. While the Tulsi and Vihar Lakes are the perfect place to take in sweeping vistas and release any tension, scenic spots like the Kanheri Caves are a delight for history buffs and those with an adventurous spirit. Borivali is also home to the stunning Mandapeshwar Caves. These rock-cut caves date back to ancient times and are interwoven with the region’s history. On the other end of the spectrum, the area is only a quick drive away from Gorai Beach, the ideal location for anyone looking for a coastal getaway.
