Overview

I have an unbridled passion for the city, especially it's historical significance of various places worth a mention. I'm well-versed in English and can get down to explaining a detailed understanding of events that actually went down at these spots. I can assure great company and a fun time :)
********* See the remains of an old Bangalore Fort that has passed through multiple hands.. an abandoned armoury. Delve into the cultural side by seeing a 300 year old temple with its intricate architecture. Take a look at some fine examples of South Indian architecture of an imposing, majestic Legislative building & the High Court. And finally, the Bangalore Palace which belonged to the Wodeyar dynasty **********
