Bangalore, the capital of the state of Karnataka is located around 2000 km southwest of the capital of India, New Delhi. Bangalore is the 5th Metropolitan City in the country and is graced by a heady blend of history and technology. Bangalore has been called by many names. At first Bangalore was the 'The Garden City of India', then, 'The Neon City', 'The Pub City of India', 'Fashion Capital of India' and lately Bangalore has been known as 'India's Silicon Valley'. Bangalore is also known as 'Stone City' thanks to its huge granite deposits. Bangalore is famous for fine silk, flowers and fruits such as grapes, guava and mangoes.
There are a number of tourist attractions to visit in and around the city of Bangalore. Of historical, religious and contemporary interests, these tourists spots are easily accessible and worth a visit. The Vidhana Soudha makes the major attraction in Bangalore. The building is a massive neo-Dravidian architecture presently functioning as the state legislative assembly. The Cubbon Park in the heart of the city, Lal Bagh (famous for the blooming red roses), and the Bangalore Palace are some of the other must see attractions of this garden city. The Venkatappa Art Gallery houses about 600 paintings on display. The Tipu's Palace and the adjoining fort are fine examples of Indo-Islamic architecture that also offer a glimpse into the Mughal lifestyle of the day. Among the religious places, the ISKCON Temple, Shiva Statue and the Bull Temple are worth visiting in Bangalore. Besides, one can also visit the Aquarium, which is the second largest in the country, as well as the Jawaharlal Nehru Planetarium.
Lavelle Road - Still close to almost everything that matters!
In the colonial times of old, Lavelle Road was the heart of British life. Carriages have given way to cars. Creeper-covered bungalows have made way for multi-storey buildings. Bangalore’s borders have grown beyond all anticipation. Lavelle Road has changed in appearance, but it still retains its reputation of being close to almost everything that matters.
M.G. Road, Brigade Road and Commercial Street, three important commercial and shopping areas, are just a short distance away. A short walk takes you to Cubbon Park, the city’s pride and very prized lung-space. If you’re here during a cricket match, and fate and your schedule smile on you, the cricket stadium is walking distance too! Restaurants, theatres, shops, museums, libraries...everything is in your vicinity.
Lavelle Road is a convenient central point in absolute terms as well. Bangalore’s many commercial districts and suburbs - Shivajinagar, Indiranagar, Koramangala, Jayanagar, to name just a few - are within easy reach. Good roads and flyovers make the journey even simpler and pleasanter.
As a matter of fact and logistics, it would be hard to find a better base for your stay in Bangalore!
