Bengaluru Trip Overview
I have an unbridled passion for the city, especially it’s historical significance of various places worth a mention. I’m well-versed in English and can get down to explaining a detailed understanding of events that actually went down at these spots. I can assure great company, awesome music and a fun time 🙂
********* See the remains of an old Bangalore Fort, the abandoned armoury and the summer house of the former great Mysore ruler – Tipu Sultan. Delve into the cultural side by seeing a 300 year old temple with its intricate architecture. See the lush green spaces of a park unparalled by no other built during the British Raj. Explore the various statues and memorials situated here. Take a look at some fine examples of South Indian architecture of an imposing, majestic Legislative building & the High Court. Check out what a cantonment church looked like from back in the day of the British rule. And finally, the Bangalore Palace which belonged to the Wodeyar dynasty **********
