Stop 1
Sanjay Gandhi National Park is a 87 km2 (34 sq mi) protected area in Mumbai, Maharashtra State in India. It was established in 1996 with headquarters at Borivali. It is notable as one of the major national parks existing within a metropolis limit and is one of the most visited parks in the world.

Stop 2
The Kanheri Caves, nestled in the heart of the park, stand as a remarkable testament to Buddhist heritage, once a vibrant center of learning and spiritual pilgrimage. Sculpted by devoted monks from the 1st century BCE to the 9th century CE, these caves were intricately carved into a grand basalt rock formation, embodying centuries of devotion and artistry.
3
The Trimurti Temple, nestled in a serene forest, is a renowned Jain temple that draws devotees, especially from the Digambar sect. Its name, "Trimurti," meaning "three idols," is derived from the three grand statues housed within—Lord Adinath, the first Tirthankara, and his two sons, Lord Bahubali and Lord Bharata. The temple is a peaceful and beautiful site, blending nature and spirituality, offering visitors a sense of tranquility and devotion.
4
The Varli tribe, near Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP), is an indigenous community known for farming and animal husbandry. Famous for Warli art, they depict nature, animals, and daily life through geometric patterns. Despite urbanization, the Varlis maintain their traditional practices, preserving their cultural identity and connection to nature.
