Mumbai Botanical Garden & Zoo

Welcome to Veermata Jijabai Bhosale Botanical Udyan & Zoo, Mumbai’s only heritage botanical garden & zoo, established in 1861! The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, Save Rani Bagh Botanical Garden Foundation and NAGAR bring to you this unique, interactive, path-finder App. The Foundation and NAGAR have long felt the need for a navigational App to enhance the experience of thousands of citizens who visit this natural haven each day. They are excited to have created this one-of-its kind App with generous support from the Pirojsha Godrej Foundation and are happy that the BMC has lent its name to it. Come explore Mumbai’s largest public space from your own mobile phone screen! See lit up on your screen the actual path - from where you are standing - to the particular tree, animal enclosure, heritage monument or public amenity of your choice! Navigating your way around a 4km network of pathways is no easy task and finding a tree of your choice from over 4,000 trees of 256 species is certainly a daunting task. This App comes to your rescue and acts as your own personal guide, showing the path to nearest tree, animal enclosure etc. Click on the icons listed to set sail on your personal voyage of discovery or simply go to the ‘How to use this App’ video. Each tree, animal exhibit and heritage monument, carries salient information taken from BMC’s official tree survey and database, so rest assured that everything you see and read here is authentic! Added features like Quick Tree Tours help if you have limited time and cannot walk around the whole campus, Fascinating & Fun Facts illustrate the history and many remarkable facets of the botanical garden and zoo and Biodiversity will astonish you with the many creatures that thrive in this verdant habitat, outside the animal exhibits! Why wait? Come explore and don’t forget to give us your feedback.
