★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Just an average place to go,you won't get the historical vibes here like kanheri caves,besides
It's a very small place 15 mins is all you need to explore it,good in monsoons may be when there is greenery Round.
You get a nice view of the low lying areas of Powai lake from here,apart from that nothing special about it.i would suggest visit this place if you are just about 3-5 kms away,otherwise no point traveling from far away to come to see this place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It is one of best place to explore in Mumbai if one need to historical places in the city.
Best place is in the morning or late afternoon.
It takes an hour or less every cave in the premises.
Bit off limit in the afternoon due to less crowd.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I didn't know how big this was until i visited it. I thought maybe what you see from outside, thats all the caves they have. This is like a smaller version of kanheri caves. It has a bit of garden around it. It is a well maintained place. The caves are well maintained too. Entry fee is 25 rps. You can do a photoshoot here and they have extra charges too. It's better to contact them directly to know the prices

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ You will definitely get surprised to see this serene area located in middle of busy metro city. Belongs to great historian past, this structure is beautiful to visit once if you are interested in such kind of places. No entry fee , no food stalls inside , fairly clean surrounding but needed more to take care of this structure. Though located in average n bit slum area; Evening sight seeing one may find interesting here especially view from top. It can be good place for foreign tourist too as it's location & complete sight seeing may not take longer than 1 hour or so PROVIDED increased in security and cleanliness . Food & other beverages can be found along Link road or around mahakali road junction area.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was expected a mahakali temple there. It will be a beautiful place if the tourist officials and authorities give a little more care. There are many caves under ground as well as in ground levels which is designed like different rooms. Now that place is not good for a solo visit. I couldn't see a temple over there. The road to the place is not in a good condition. But bus transportation and autoriksha are available there. Now it is a place where couples can use to spend for their private moments. And I really didn't want to spend my time there more than a half hour. No entry pass. No security and not safety at all. But the place is beautiful

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's a old cave. Nice place to hangout. But not rich in sculpture or art. Worth one time visit. Parking is not good, be Careful. There are no fees to enter. Good on bright sunny day, on rainy days rocks will be little slippery.
