'''Nepean Sea Road''' is an upmarket neighbourhood near [[Malabar Hill]] in [[South Mumbai]]. The area is named after [[Evan Nepean|Sir Evan Nepean, 1st Baronet]], a British politician and administrator, and the [[Governor of Bombay]] (1812–1819). This road was renamed to Lady Laxmibai Jagmohandas Marg<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=yFAvxLLVPygC&pg=PA140&lpg=PA140&dq=%22Lady+Laxmibai+Jagmohandas+Marg%22#q=%22Lady%20Laxmibai%20Jagmohandas%20Marg%22 |title=Maximum city: Bombay lost and found |publisher=Penguin Books India |date=2004 |isbn=9780144001590 |access-date=2015-07-31}}</ref> in the 1960s, but as is the case with many other British street names that were renamed, it continues to be referred to as Nepean Sea Road. Nepean Sea Road is one of Mumbai's most elite neighborhoods.

Nepean Sea Road begins from St. Stephen's Church at Warden Road and goes all the way to Chandralok, the area's upmarket shopping locale.

The largest open green space in Nepean Sea Road is [http://priyadarshinipark.org/ Priyadarshini Park] which faces the sea. The Park boasts of an eight-Lane, 400-metre running track with a large football field located in it. The Park also has a natural walking track which is used by hundreds of citizens for their morning and evening walks. The park also has extensive sports facilities like tennis courts, yoga hall, gym & other sport training programs. The plans for a coastal road have been drawn out but has not been put into action because it may destroy the park and result in the cutting down of trees.

The local Residents Association is [http://www.nsrcf.in Nepean Sea Road Citizens Forum], which represents the interests of the citizens & residents of Nepean Sea Road.

Nepean Sea Road contains some of the most expensive apartments in Mumbai as well as one of the most expensive houses in the world, Maheshwari House, which was recently sold to industrialist [[Sajjan Jindal]] for Rs. 400 crore. The [[List of diplomatic missions of Russia#Asia#India|Consulate General of the Russian Federation]] is located at 42, Nepean Sea Road.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2011-07-07/news/29747791_1_jindal-south-west-sajjan-jindal-bungalow |title=JSW Steel owner Sajjan Jindal buys India's costliest house for Rs 400 crore on south Mumbai's Nepean Sea road - Economic Times |publisher=Articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com |date=2011-07-07 |access-date=2012-05-28}}</ref>

'''Shopping'''

Nepean Sea Road is also home to a popular shopping locality called Chandralok. This tiny stretch is known for its decades-old fabrics and clothing market. 20 odd designer stores jostle for space and sell everything from traditional clothing and jewelry to rich fabrics, customised designer wear and everything else in between.
