Cubbon Park

TIME : 2016/2/17 13:06:12

In the heart of Bengaluru’s business district is Cubbon Park, a sprawling 120-hectare garden where Bengaluru’s residents converge to steal a moment from the rat race that rages outside.

It’s surrounded by wonderful colonial architecture, including the red-painted Gothic-style State Central Library ; the colossal neo-Dravidian-style Vidhana Soudha , built in 1954 and which serves as the legislative chambers of the state government, and neoclassical Attara Kacheri built in 1864 and houses the High Court. The latter two are closed to the public.
