Bombay High Court - Nagpur Bench - Nagpur

Superb, very beautiful looking heritage structure, this building has English architecture. Located in one of the greenest areas of the city, it has very clean and green premises.

You can't get food here neither can you go shopping. Justice is delivered here! I just wish nobody faces such situations that he has to visit here but you know that's not possible we are humans and we can't live peacefully. So if you visit this place may the justice be served to you. In case you need some consultancy you can call me though ?

This is the most beautiful High Court building in India. Undoubtedly the finest architecture we have ever seen. Temple of justice indeed

This is extremely beautiful building. The first part was constructed during british rule. Second part was constructed post independence. Even though they had tried to match the legacy but anyone could clearly mark the difference in ventilation design and others. Anyways, they have sufficient space, the whole building and vicinity is clean as well as green. You might face lack of mobile signal in this building.
