Dadar Parsi Colony (officially Mancherji Joshi Parsi Colony) is an upper class Parsi colony in midtown South Mumbai. It is situated in the locality of Dadar-Matunga. Unlike the other Parsi colonies (also known as 'baugs', literally gardens) it is not surrounded by a wall or fence and is not isolated from its surroundings. The colony houses the famous Five Gardens created by Mancherji Joshi, a renowned Parsi. It is the largest Zoroastrian enclave in the world and in 2009, out of the 45,000 Zoroastrians living in Mumbai, 10,000 lived in Dadar Parsi Colony.
