The park is open from morning until noon and then again from 4 to 8 p. You may remember them from school history lessons about Portuguese rule in Bombay and the subsequent handover to the British. Those plans were dashed by the ASI in a bid to protect what remains of the fort.”After the cession to the Crown, the fort was given to the East India Company.

The last attempt at renovation in 2009 was abandoned due to shortage of funds. Apart from some puerile graffiti, it is obvious there’s been no attention paid to it, never mind the thought of restoring it
