Kanheri Caves are rock cut caves situated in middle of lush green forest of Borivali National Park in the heart of mumbai, India. The path from National Park gate to Kanheri caves is a nice weekend getaway into nature in the heart of mumbai. In rainy season its a famous picnic place.
Kanheri caves are artistic cut caves from rocks. Carved around 1 BC to 7 AD by Buddhist monks, they were a place for their stay. The caves are architectural wonders; some of the caves are huge and feature a huge 7 Meter Buddha statue. National park is a nice place to hike, trek, nature walk, bird watching and enjoy some good clean air.
We drove out of Kanheri caves around 5:00 PM and halted near TREE HOUSE which is close to exit gate of National Park.
