Dongri Fort

The Dongri Fort, or the Dongri Hill Fort, locally known as the Janjire Dhavari Fort, is a fort in Mumbai, India. It is located in the Dongri area. It came under Maratha rule in 1739. Since then, the locals and the church have been looking after the maintenance of the fort, which was once repaired. Every year, during the month of October, the feast of Our Lady of Fatima is celebrated there. Many people from far-off villages come to offer their prayers there. One can take a 360-degree view of the surroundings from this fort, with the Arabian Sea to the west, the Vasai Fort to the north, the Sanjay Gandhi National Park to the east, and the Essel World and Water Kingdom to the south.
