The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has finally invited an Expression of Interest (EoI) for setting up a horse carousel at Cooperage Garden in Fort. This is the first time that the Mumbai civic body is setting up such a joy ride in a garden.
A carousel, also known as a merry-go-round, is a ride that features a circular-shaped, rotating platform. The seats on a carousel are often designed to resemble objects such as automobiles, trains, and animals. Common animals seen on a carousel include horses, elephants, and swans.
