Bhandup

Bhandup is one of the oldest suburbs in Mumbai. The name of the city - Bhandup - is derived from Bhandupeshwar, one of the names of Lord Shiva. An old temple dedicated to Lord Shiva - the Bhandupeshwar Mahadev Mandir - still stands in Bhandup West. Bhandup has a Shivaji Talao, or Shivaji Lake, named after the great Maratha ruler, Chhatrapati Shivaji. Bhandup also has Asia's biggest water filtration plant. Before real estate prospered 40 years ago, Bhandup was a dense forest area that gradually saw the growth of industries, and now is becoming a very prominent location for real estate investors, as it has considerable opportunity for further growth.
