Bengaluru was the erstwhile summer city of Tipu Sultan, who chose to build his summer palace amidst its dense fiery blossom trees and avenues. With the IT boom and burgeoning international status, the ‘garden city’ soon grew into the ‘silicon valley’ of India.
Bengaluru—India’s third-largest city with a population that exceeds 84 lakhs and with a combination of its many tourist places—has also been judged by recent surveys as one of the most live-able metropolitan cities in the country.
The metropolitan city boasts of some of the best eateries that serve the most diverse cuisines from across the world. Get the taste of the Kannadiga cuisine, Bengaluru local speciality, which serves proud variants of South Indian dishes—from crispy dosas and other rice-based dishes that are savoury or sweet to distinctive filter coffee.
Walk around in one of the numerous parks in the city—like Cubbon Park, JP Park or the Lalbaugh Botanical Gardens.But if history is your calling, draw your itinerary around Bengaluru Fort, Tipu Sultan’s Summer Palace or the Mayo Hall—one of the finest designs of British architecture.
