Lalbagh Botanical Garden is a must-visit for the botany enthusiasts and nature lovers. Spread over 240 acres, the garden boasts of mesmerizing flora and fauna. History buffs can explore the beautiful glasshouse built in the style of London's Crystal Palace. The garden also features a serene lake, a serene lotus pond and a beautiful aquarium. Make sure you also visit the Lalbagh Rock, one of the oldest rock formations on earth.
Located amidst the scenic hills of the city, Bannerghatta National Park is a wildlife sanctuary and a biological reserve. This park is home to a variety of flora and fauna species, including leopards, lions, elephants, and Bengal tigers. The park also houses a butterfly conservatory and a zoo where you can get up close with some of the animals.
Chunchi Falls is a stunning natural wonder located on the banks of the Arkavathi River. With its clear blue water cascading down a rocky terrain, it is a sight to behold. Enjoy a refreshing swim or take a picnic by the falls. Make sure to carry some snacks and water as there are not many food options available.
If you have extra time, visit the Bangalore Palace, Cubbon Park or the Bull Temple. If you have less time, skip Chunchi Falls or explore Bannerghatta National Park only. Remember to carry a hat and sunglasses to beat the heat, comfortable walking shoes and insect repellant.
