History of the Hanging Gardens
First built in 1881, the Pherozshah Mehta Gardens, also known as Hanging Gardens, were designed by Ulhas Ghapokar. Initially, they were dedicated to Pherozshah Mehta who was a prominent Parsi Political leader, activist, and lawyer. Due to his contributions to the city, he was named the Lion of Bombay. In 1921, the garden was renovated to its current state.
