Kanheri Caves that contain Buddhist Sculptures from the 1st cebtury BCE to the 10th century are a part of this massive park. Total of 90 caves. It gets absolutely packed during rainy weekends.. and the trek routes to the highest point of Mumbai are also closed as the grass grows real tall. And it is not possible to find ur way thru the jungle, yes jungle cause cheetahs are found here.
