10 Best Places to visit in Bangalore this summer


 BANGALORE - CITY OF LIGHTS 


Bengaluru, Silicon Valley of India and the pride capital of Karnataka. The city has earned several names such as Pub capital of India, City of gardens, Air-conditioned city. Bengaluru doesn't have many iconic attractions as other cities in India, it has a mixed culture of historic, architecture, art and nature.

If you're planning to have a trip to Bangalore this summer and make it a memorable one, here is your plan of action by me.

Here we go..............Top 5 places to hang on in Bangalore.


If you're a monumental monk, must stopover at these -

 Bangalore Palace 


The Bangalore Palace was built in 1887 by Chamaraja Wodeyar, Bangalore Palace is inspired by England's Windsor Castle. It has Tudor-style architecture, with fortified towers, arches, green lawns, and elegant woodcarvings in its interiors. The royal family still lives there. 
  • The Palace honours its guests from 10am to 5:30pm

 Tipu Sultan Palace and Fort 


Situated inside the Bangalore Fort area, Tipu Sultan's Palace was originally built by Chikkadeva Raya in the mud. Later, Hyder Ali started reconstruction in Indo-Islamic architecture. It was completed by his son, Tipu Sultan, in 1791. The Hindu temple seen in the courtyard of the fort is the proof of Tipu Sultan's religious tolerance.
  • The Fort honours its guests from 8:30am to 5:30pm

It now covers 240 acres and derives its name from the red roses that bloom throughout the year there. The garden is said to have the most diverse species of plants in the world. Its focal point is a majestic glasshouse, built in 1889 to commemorate the visit of the Prince of Wales. It was designed along the lines of the Crystal Palace in London.
