Bangalore
The multifaceted capital city of Karnataka,
dotted with modern marvels, lush boulevards, historical monuments
& bustling shopping plazas, Bangalore, aptly called the Silicon
Valley of India, is every tourist's dream travel destination.
Bangalore,
the fifth largest city in India, is the perfect blend of natural
beauty and man-made marvels of architecture and technology. Blessed
with a salubrious climate and dotted with beautiful parks, its tree-lined
avenues, its trendy, yuppie downtown, and the software flood, Bangalore
truly offers one a picture of striking contrasts.
Bangalore -- located 1,000m above sea level is one of the most
'happening' places in India. Bangalore, which literally means the
'town of baked beans', was founded by Kempe Gowda, a chieftain of
the Vijayanagar Empire, around the 16th century. He built four towers
in four directions to specify its boundaries. However, Bangalore
has far exceeded these limits since.
