General information

Destination
Bangalore, India

Program details

Bangalore's most popular tourist destination, Lalbagh, might seem as a large boring park to the ordinary eye. Walk with us to discover the treasure that is Lalbagh, as we take you through the sand, stone and waters of Lalbagh, our ruler Tipu Sultan's pleasure paradise!. Commissioned by Hyder Ali and completed by Tipu Sultan, Lalbagh was a royal pleasure garden a statement of power and beauty. Lalbagh has since acquired a large range of horticultural samples, a beautiful glass house and India's first lawn-clock.



Today, it is not just a botanical garden but is also one of the few green spaces left in the increasingly polluted 'garden city'. Join us as we step into pockets of silence and bloom right within the corporate jungle that is Bangalore. Listen to stories from the past, the unique trees & cultural anecdotes associated with them that help appreciate the beauty & richness of Lalbagh.
