Embarking on a trip to Banganga Tank offers a unique chance to deeply immerse yourself in the city’s past and understand its transformation from seven underpopulated islands to today’s thriving metropolis. The route of Banganga Walkeshwar Walk is bordered by a narrow street teeming with temples, residences, and dharamsalas (faith-based rest houses). It marks the route for the sacred parikrama, a foot walk around the tank that Hindus deem to have enormous purifying virtues. Not to forget the iconic dhobi ghat, which is Mumbai’s most renowned open-air laundromat.
