The 16m, four-storey high Play Tower houses the Vertical Challenge, a vertical net play area and numerous rope-based obstacles which includes stepping pods, hammocks, grip wall and disc swings. Visitors can scale up and scramble through the nets and obstacles to reach the very top. Once at the top, take a moment to enjoy the breezy winds and the lovely 360o view of East Coast Park and the sea.

This is a screenshot of our MapoBlog - Nagpur - Mumbai - Pune - Kokan - Nagpur Trip.  This Screenshot is just to give you an overall picture of the routes followed, the hotels where we stayed, the restaurants where we had food and the tourist attractions we visited. But these details can not be accessed on this map. Full details and descriptions about routes, hotels stayed, restaurants, where we had food and the information/write-up about tourist attractions visited by us, can be accessed in "interactive" Google Maps. 

For the interactive map GO HERE.
In case you have a problem / need to be more conversant about navigating through the map, guidelines are given below.

How to navigate through the interactive map:

When the interactive map opens, it may not look like the map above, it may not even be "centred". 
 To 'centre' the map, place the cursor anywhere on the map and an icon of palm-fist will appear. Press the left click and drag the map to anywhere or to any desired area you are interested in.
To see the location you are interested in, click the name of that location in the left panel, which will become highlighted, at the same time, a panel will also appear on the map at the location of that place, giving its name and write-up/description/details about that place. You will / may have to centre the location on the map for better viewing. Zoom in to the max and centre it for better viewing of the place/attraction. 
If photos have been taken at that place, they will also appear in the same panel. These photos do not give captions nor can they be viewed in zoom mode. To see the captions and view the photos you have to open the "trip-album".
A link to the "trip album" of the complete trip is given at the end.
In this album, you can zoom in to see photo details and also read the captions. 
After you have gone through the place and seen the photos zoom out again before going to the next place.
PHOTOGRAPHS.
The shared album "2023. Mumbai - Pune - Kokan Trip." gives photographs of the whole trip.
Open the album by going to the link given below. GO HERE.

IMPORTANT TIP. 
Photos in the interactive map have been uploaded in chronological order. 
Open the album either in a new tab or a new window.
Photos in the album have the same chronological order as that of the trip. So, If you follow the map chronologically your photos will also appear in that order and you see the locations as well as zoomable photos with captions in their proper order/sequence.
 This will save you from the bother of repeatedly going forward or backwards in the photo album.
