MMRDA plans RS 10K Cr Disney park between Uttan and Gorai

The state government and MMRDA are planning to build a amusement park and entertainment hub like Disney Land that can accommodate more than 30 Essel Worlds which, at 65 acres, is currently India's largest amusement park.

The proposed Rs 10,000 crore entertainment hub will be built on 2,000 acres of land comprising eight villages between Uttan and Gorai.

Ratnakar Gaikwad, metropolitan commissioner, MMRDA said, "It is just in the planning and designing stage, which in itself will take nearly six months."

Things you might see at the hub

Mini India: You might be able to see a mini Taj Mahal, Charminar, sculptures of Khajuraho and Hampi at all in one place.

Resorts and recreational facilities: It would also have resorts for public to rest and recreation clubs with games.

Research institute on Indian culture: There will be a provision for people to educate themselves and know more about India.

It would also have a library with scriptures and study areas.

Exhibition centre: It would feature renowned Indian paintings and art.

Gardens: Areas close to the mangrove belt could be turned into a garden without affecting these mangroves.
