around the city of Bangalore. Of historical, religious
and contemporary interests, these tourists spots are
easily accessible and worth a visit. The Vidhan Soudha
makes the major attraction in Bangalore. The building

functioning as the state legislative assembly. The

for the blooming red roses), and the Bangalore Palace
are some of the other must see attractions of this
garden city. |
