Kanheri Caves are an ideal place for escaping the noise and pollution of Mumbai city. Located in Sanjay Gandhi National Park, the Kanheri Caves are known as the “lungs of Mumbai” because of their pleasant location.
The unique caves are hailed as the oldest cave formations in all of India. With more than 100 different entrances, a trip to the Kanheri Caves can easily fill a day or two. There are more than 30 paintings of Buddha inside the caves and there is a monastery where visitors can learn about the life of a monk. A spacious prayer hall can also be found within the cave system. Outside of the caves, guests can participate in adventure sports like rappelling and trekking.
