A short story of Bangalore

Bangalore, officially known as Bengaluru, grew around a fortified settlement established by Kempe Gowda in the sixteenth century. Over time, it was shaped by the Wodeyar rulers of Mysore, Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan, and later by the British cantonment. Its history can still be seen in royal buildings, temples, gardens and old neighbourhoods. Known for decades as India’s Garden City, Bangalore has also become one of the country’s leading centres for technology, education and innovation. The city is best discovered through this contrast: historic places and local traditions alongside busy streets, cafés and modern urban life.

Plan your visit to Bangalore

Best time to visit
October to February is usually the most comfortable period for sightseeing, with milder temperatures and less rain. March to May can be hot, while June to September often brings showers.
Getting around
Bangalore is spread out and traffic can be slow, so allow extra travel time. Use the Namma Metro where available, registered taxis, auto-rickshaws or ride-hailing services for longer journeys.
What to wear
Wear light, comfortable clothing and walking shoes. Dress modestly for temples and religious sites, where shoes may need to be removed. Bring water, sun protection and a light rain layer when needed.
Booking tips
Book guided tours in advance during weekends, holidays and the cooler months. Check the meeting point carefully and confirm whether pickup, transport, entry tickets, meals and drop-off are included.
