Top ( Five ) Gardens of Bangalore. We visited them, loved them. You will love them too.

Bangalore (now called Bengaluru ) is the capital of India's southern Karnataka state. The center of India's high-tech industry, the city is also known for its parks and nightlife.

The foundations of Bangalore were laid down by the Vijayanagara chieftain Kempe Gowda. Like all things in Vijayanagara, Kempe Gowda was keenly interested in building an economically as well as culturally rich city that would ensure his legacy would be remembered for hundreds of years.

This is why, during the construction of the city, special emphasis was placed on enhancing the beauty of the city and making it truly remarkable. Special water reservoirs, grandiose temples and glamorous parks were built all around the city. This also happens to be one of the reasons why Bangalore is called the Garden City. Let’s take a look at the five most beautiful parks in Bangalore.


1. Cubbon Park


The Cubbon Park is situated in the central administrative area of the city of Bengaluru. The park is home to the statues of famous personalities as well as rich and diverse flora and fauna.

This also happens to be one of the most famous parks in Bangalore. The park is aesthetically pleasing and garners the attention of tourists and nature lovers alike.
