Area Overview
What makes Bund Garden special
Bund Garden sits on the Mula-Mutha river between Camp and Koregaon Park, taking its name from the riverside garden laid out in the nineteenth century.
It is Pune’s hospital quarter. Jehangir, Ruby Hall and Sassoon are all within a couple of kilometres, and the surrounding streets hold a dense cluster of medical practice and diagnostic services.
Metro Line 2 has stations at Bund Garden and Ruby Hall Clinic, the Aga Khan Palace is a short drive north, and the area works as a quieter, greener alternative to Camp with the same central access.

Why choose Bund Garden?
Bund Garden is the best-served address in Pune for healthcare — Jehangir about 500 m, Ruby Hall within a kilometre, Sassoon within two — with Metro Line 2 stations, the riverside garden, four long-established Camp schools within 3 km, and the shortest airport run in the city at about seven kilometres. The trade-offs are constant hospital traffic, older stock needing careful assessment, and pricing near the top of the Pune range.
