Itinerary

ISKCON Temple Bangalore

45 min Admission included

The ISKCON Temple in Bengaluru, built in 1997, is one of the largest Krishna temples in the world. Located on Hare Krishna Hill in Rajajinagar, it blends modern architecture with traditional Hindu design, featuring golden domes, tall gopurams, and intricate carvings. For tourists, it offers a serene spiritual experience with vibrant festivals, devotional music, and beautiful shrines dedicated to Radha and Krishna
Bull Temple

30 min Admission included

The Bull Temple in Basavanagudi, Bangalore, is a revered shrine dedicated to Nandi, the sacred bull and loyal companion of Lord Shiva. Its massive monolithic Nandi statue—measuring over 4.5 meters tall and 6.5 meters long—is one of the largest of its kind in the world2. Built in the 16th century by Kempe Gowda, the founder of Bangalore, the temple showcases classic Dravidian architecture with intricately carved pillars and a serene ambiance. Every year, the temple hosts the vibrant Kadalekai Parishe (Groundnut Fair), celebrating local legend and community spirit
Bangalore Fort

one hour Admission included

️ Bangalore Fort, originally built as a mud structure in 1537 by Kempe Gowda I, marks the founding of the city itself. In 1761, Hyder Ali replaced it with a robust stone fort, later fortified by his son Tipu Sultan during the Anglo-Mysore wars2. Though much of the fort was dismantled during British rule, remnants like the Delhi Gate and bastions still showcase 18th-century military architecture. Today, it stands as a quiet yet powerful reminder of Bangalore’s strategic and historical legacy.
Bangalore Palace

one hour Admission included

Bangalore Palace, built in 1878 by King Chamaraja Wadiyar, showcases Tudor-style architecture inspired by England’s Windsor Castle. Its lavish interiors feature ornate wood carvings, vintage furniture, and royal portraits that reflect the grandeur of the Wadiyar dynasty1. Today, the palace serves as a cultural venue and tourist attraction, offering visitors a glimpse into regal heritage amid lush gardens and historic charm
Stop 5

MTR (Mavalli Tiffin Rooms) is one of Bengaluru’s oldest and most iconic restaurants, founded in 1924. It is famous for authentic South Indian dishes like rava idli, dosa, vada, and the signature bisi bele bath, served in a traditional, no-frills style. For tourists, dining at MTR offers not just delicious food but also a taste of Bengaluru’s cultural heritage and culinary history
Vidhana Soudha and Attara Kacheri

30 min

️ Vidhana Soudha, located in the heart of Bengaluru, is an iconic legislative building that houses the Karnataka State Legislature and Secretariat. Constructed between 1951 and 1956 under the vision of Chief Minister Kengal Hanumanthaiah, it exemplifies Neo-Dravidian architecture with grand granite facades and a majestic central dome. Standing 150 feet tall, the structure is adorned with intricately carved pillars, ornamental motifs, and the national emblem atop its dome. Often referred to as the “Taj Mahal of South India” for its grandeur, it symbolizes the democratic spirit and architectural pride of Karnataka
KR Market

one hour

️ KR Market (Krishna Rajendra Market), established in 1928, is one of Bangalore’s oldest and busiest wholesale markets, pulsating with color, chaos, and commerce. Located near Tipu Sultan’s Summer Palace, it’s especially famous for its sprawling flower market—one of the largest in Asia—where vibrant marigolds and roses flood the lanes at dawn. The market’s layered architecture includes colonial-era buildings and a 3-story concrete structure added in the 1990s to accommodate growing trade1. Beyond flowers, it’s a hub for fresh produce, spices, tools, and traditional goods, offering a raw, authentic slice of Bangalore’s everyday life
Lalbagh Botanical Garden

one hour Admission included

Lalbagh Botanical Garden, established by Hyder Ali in 1760, is one of Bangalore’s most iconic green spaces, spanning over 240 acres in the heart of the city. It boasts India’s largest collection of tropical and subtropical plants, with centuries-old trees and vibrant flowerbeds that attract nature lovers year-round2. The garden’s centerpiece is the stunning Glass House, modeled after London’s Crystal Palace, which hosts the famous biannual flower shows. A rocky outcrop dating back 3,000 million years, crowned by Kempegowda’s watchtower, adds geological and historical depth to this serene retreat
