Kashimira, Thane

Kashimira is a part of the Kashi Mira duo – two panoramic Villages found in the district of Thane, flanked by the natural beauty of the hill sides and the numerous lakes on either sides. This popular spot can be reached via curvy roads that link Kashi Mira to the main district. These roads offer a fantastic view of the placid lakes and the lofty hills.

Kashi Mira is accessible from Dahisar, a small station in Mumbai which is famed to have the toll naka that connects Mumbai to the rest of India. The St. Jerome’s Church stood, at one point in time, between the two villages, thereby dividing them.

Built in 1595, the church is more than 400 years old and has been renovated thrice since its construction. The two villages of Kashi Mira organize a grand fair held on the 25th and 26th of December every year.
