This place is located within Ranichi Bag which is now knows as Veermata Jijabai Garden which is located in byculla. It was not crowded as we visited on weekdays. It is very well maintained. But many other things were closed in Humboldt Penguin. There are small scale restaurants (South Indian, North Indians, Waffles etc) present post you see penguins. I felt little sad to see penguins conditions inside there as they have habit to live and roam over the artic region but here they have been caged.

It was a good experience to see Penguins... They are very active... No separate entry tickets for this ... It is included in the Zoo entry ticket.... Must visit places in Mumbai Zoo... A small cafe is also available inside for food or snacks ... Enjoy

There are a total of 14 penguins in India and you can see 9 of them here. This also happens to be the first and only place in India where two penguin chicks 'Oscar' and 'Oreo' were born. The names of the 7 adults birds are Daisy, Donald, Molt, Flipper, Popeye, Olive and Bubble. They were brought to the zoo in 2016 from Seoul. Though from the start the penguins have been at the centre of political tussle, I am happy that they have survived and reproduced in the artificially created habitat in Mumbai. I would strongly recommend you visit on a weekday to get a good glimpse of them moving around in the enclosure. There is no separate fee for accessing the Humboldt Penguin Section. Update: The count is now 12 at the Mumbai zoo with the birth of 3 more chicks. Their names are Alexa, Bingo and Flash. Update Aug'23: The number is now 15 . Thanks to Mr. Narayan Kamble who recommended us to come during the feeding time. It's a jovial experience!

Very good place to visit. You have got many penguins to see. No extra charge for the centre. With the charge of zoo only you get to see this
