Palais de Bangalore

Built by the Wodeyars, Bangalore Palace, with its Tudor towers, well-pruned palace gardens and a magnificent turreted facade, makes for a spectacular sight. Its opulent interiors hearken back to its heyday soon after its construction in the 19th Century. From curios and collectibles to rare artifacts and vintage photos of the royal family, there is grandeur displayed in every nook and corner. The king's and queen's courtyard is charming, as are their private chambers, ornamented with plush tapestries and chandeliers, overlooking well-maintained gardens. Flanked by groves of emerald trees, this palace was once a retreat for the Maharaja, away from his residence in Mysore, and today stands as a canvas of elegance and regalia. Complete with a treasury of exotic paintings, winding staircases and richly-decorated halls, the Bangalore Palace beautifully combines history and architectural finesse.

Ulsoor Lake

The Ulsoor Lake is a large water body that comes as a breath of fresh air to those who enjoy their daily strolls. A cluster of trees stands in the middle of the lake as if they were always there. Boating activities are possible during the evenings. One usually spots a sail or two in the lake, as the nearby army engineers use the lake for their constructional activities like building bridges or sailing practices. An area of the lake touches parts of the Mahatma Gandhi Road, Ulsoor and Old Madras Road. In the evenings, the lake is lit up by the lamps that are on the periphery, and the sparkling water sets the mood for a romantic rendezvous. During the daytime, one can see birds gliding along the surface of the water and they indeed make a very beautiful sight.

Temple Dodda Ganapathi

The Dodda Ganapathi Temple is easily one of the most unusual and eye-catching temples in the city. The legend goes that Kempegowda I, who founded the city of Bengaluru, was on a stroll when he found a rock that had an etching of Ganesha on it. At his behest, an idol was carved out of a single stone and it is this that is now enshrined within the Dodda Ganapathi Temple. Devotees believe that the miraculous idol grew to its monumental size all on its own from the humble sculpture commissioned by the king. On the occasion of Ganesha Chaturthi , a week-long festival venerating Lord Ganesha, the idol is dressed in a variety of ways on each day, the most impressive being Benne Alankara which involves slathering the monolith with a staggering 100 kilograms (220 pounds) of butter. A richly ornamented gopuram marks the entrance of the temple, watching over the scene from a towering height.

Dodda Basavana Gudi

With its origins dating back to the 16th Century, the historically significant Bull Temple or the 'Dodda Basavana Temple' is one of the most famous temples in Bengaluru. The neighborhood Basavanagudi derives its name from this temple, as Basavanagudi in Kannada means Bull Temple. The monolithic stone idol of Nandi, constructed by Kempe Gowda and regarded as one of the biggest of its kind, lies upon the crest of the Bugle hill in Basavanagudi. The ascending gopuram (monumental tower) was built in the Dravidian style. The sacred Nandi bull is worshiped by several devotees, and the farmers offer their harvest to it each year. These offerings see a festive occasion called the 'Groundnut Festival' or 'Madalena Parishe' or 'Kadalekaye Parishe'. The Bull Temple is a must-visit both for its historical importance and to show devotion to Nandi, the sacred vahana of Lord Shiva.

Perfect to unwind after a hectic day at work, the pub welcomes patrons in a beautiful ambiance with spaciously laid out tables, soft lighting, and a prompt service. To accompany your tipples, they serve delectable Italian fare. The pizzas are scrumptious, perfectly baked, and topped with delicious toppings.

Hebbal Lake

Get away from the furious bustle of the city and revel in some quietude at the Hebbal Lake. Best viewed at the crack of dawn or when the sun sets on the horizon, this peaceful lake attracts several bird-watchers too. If you're lucky, you may spot a stray pelican or two. At other times, the numerous ducks clucking across the serene waters is a sight to behold as well.

HAL Heritage Centre and Aerospace Museum

The first museum in India dedicated to aircraft and aviation, the Heritage Centre & Aerospace Museum at HAL takes visitors on a delightful journey through the country's aviation history. Headquartered in Bengaluru, HAL, which stands for Hindustan Aeronautics Limited has been a pioneering government agency which has changed the aviation landscape of India. The museum, located close to the Hindustan Airport, has a sterling collection of photographs and memorabilia which chart HAL's progress from its inception in 1940 to become the pillar for the country's aerospace programs. Experiencing flight in a high-tech simulator is one of the most exciting experiences that visitors can have here. Also of special note is the display of an actual aircraft within the premises. The museum guarantees unique experiences and should not be missed when in the city.

Parc national de Bannerghatta

The sprawling Bannerghatta National Park is located on the outskirts of Bengaluru, amid the Anekal mountain range. Founded in 1971, this vast park also comprises a biological reserve. The park is home to a wealth of intriguing educational experiences including visits to the on-site butterfly enclosure, aquarium, snake house, elephant sanctuary and animal rescue center. The activity that attracts the most visitors, however, is the guided tiger and lion safaris that offer a rare opportunity to get an up close look at the big cats. Trekking enthusiasts can also embark upon hiking adventures within the national park. Bannerghatta National Park spans over 26,355 hectares (65,127 acres) and sustains an impressive population of native wildlife such as spotted deer, Indian gazelle, barking deer, slender loris, bonnet macaques and Royal Bengal tigers.
