Day 1: Arrival at Bangalore & Half Day Bangalore Sightseeing Upon your arrival at the Bangalore Airport or Railway Station, prepare to be greeted by our representatives who will assist you with your transfer to your hotel. After check-in, you will have time to yourself to prepare before we embark on a tour on your first day in the Silicon Valley of India. We will explore this beautiful city, affectionately known as ‘The Garden City.’ We will start our journey at the Bangalore Palace, a majestic 19th-century structure surrounded by lush gardens in the heart of the city.
This site is a hotspot for both locals and tourists, showcasing architecture from times gone by, with intricate carvings adorning the interiors of the wooden structures. Explore the medieval castles and discover the ancient culture of the royal families that once governed from this palace. The Sri Radha Krishna Temple, located just a 15-minute ride from the palace, remains one of the largest ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness) temples in the world. It is a grand structure that spares no expense in sourcing only the finest materials, including granite, marble, and glass imported from Korea. Still within the heart of Bangalore, we will visit the Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath, a stunning 1960 structure that serves as a museum dedicated to preserving the culture and art of Bangalore.
This venue features museums, galleries, and archives displaying modern and contemporary art, as well as traditional artwork, some created by students from The College of Fine Arts and The Bengaluru School of Visual Arts.
