The Dadar Flower Market (Phul Bazar) near Dadar Station is one of Mumbai's most spectacular markets, a wholesale and retail flower market that supplies the city's temples, weddings, garlands, and decorations. The market is busiest in the early morning from 4am to 8am when wholesalers supply florists and temple vendors, but retail shoppers find excellent prices throughout the morning.
The market's visual splendour — mountains of marigolds, roses, jasmine, tuberoses, and lotus flowers — and the fragrance concentrated in a small area make it one of Mumbai's most sensory experiences. The adjacent Dadar vegetable market is equally impressive. The area is one of the best places in Mumbai to observe the city's wholesale economy in action.
