Important Note

(Before) Attention all newcomers to this enchanting garden. It’s important to know that the locals and even the auto drivers might not recognize it by its name, ‘Nirvana’. Instead, they refer to it as the BMC Garden of Powai, as it is lovingly cared for by the Municipal Corporation. Don’t be surprised when you arrive at the Entry Gate and find it labeled as ‘Maintained by the Municipal Corporation of Mumbai’ rather than ‘Nirvana Park’.

(NOW): The entrance gate proudly showcases the words “Shri Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Udyan” in Marathi, while a charming lollipop display on the side informs us that it is lovingly maintained by MCGM.

The pathway is spotless, offering ample seating options throughout. Whether it’s the spacious benches or the stone seats nestled within the lush lawn or even by the tranquil pond, there’s a seating arrangement to suit everyone’s needs. Personally, I found the stone seating particularly appealing as it seamlessly blends with the park’s ambiance, exuding a natural charm.

The two-seater rocks are just right for two friends or couples seeking a cozy spot, while the larger rocky seats are perfect for a group to gather, chat, and have a great time. It’s truly a haven for both visitors and residents of Hiranandani, providing a delightful setting for daily walks, jogs, and even yoga sessions.

This pristine pond in Powai is impeccably maintained, adorned with exquisite wooden pavilions that offer a serene spot to unwind and savor the picturesque scenery amidst the scorching summer and refreshing monsoon showers. Within these pavilions, cozy benches are thoughtfully placed, inviting visitors to sit back and indulge in relaxation.

The pond itself is teeming with vibrant clusters of fish in shades of orange, white, and black, infusing the surroundings with a lively ambiance. While feeding the fish is prohibited, this rule ensures that outside food is also prohibited, preserving the pond’s cleanliness and tranquility.

I was also captivated by the arrangement of stones in the pond. There were these adorable small black stones accompanied by charming shrubs, and a few slightly larger stones that added to the beauty, along with an artificial waterfall and lush plants. The pond itself was impeccably clean, embraced by lush greenery, and even had comfortable seating arrangements.

However, the highlight was undoubtedly the elevated machan located right by the pond, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of Nirvana Park. You can witness this stunning sight in the captivating photos showcased on this page.

When bringing children to a garden like ‘Nirvana Park’, it is crucial to prioritize their safety and the cleanliness of the environment. Kids truly enjoy themselves when they have the freedom to run around in an open space and play on the lush green grass.

Rest assured, hygiene is a top priority here. Outside food is strictly prohibited, ensuring that the park maintains cleanliness. The expansive lawn provides ample grass for your little ones to tumble, run, and have a blast. Additionally, the park offers a dedicated play area with exciting rides specifically designed for children, guaranteeing both fun and physical exercise (refer to the picture).

However, it is important to remain cautious around the pond areas. These areas lack safe fences and boundaries, posing a potential danger. Please keep a close eye on toddlers and kids to prevent any accidents.
