Summers In Bangalore!!

I had an opportunity to go visit the south of India for a holiday with friends from schools. We decided to spend a weekend in the most renowned IT city of India, Bangalore. I had certainly not visited this place earlier so was very thrilled. We were to spend three days in this beautiful city. Bangalore is the capital of Karnataka. It is also known as Bengaluru now. This place has the third largest population in India.  Bangalore has come to be identified as the technology center of India. Since so many gigantic worldwide and IT companies have their offices here.


I had always wanted to go to Bangalore and pursue my edification further here but destiny had something else in store for me. Never the less I got a chance to visit this city with friends. On the other hand the first thing to do before going on a holiday is to find the best airfares and cheap plane fares that suit your budget. There are many flights to Bangalore and if you do enough of research on the internet then you could find cheap flights to Bangalore on Air India. You could get in touch with your travel agent who could help to get you very good quality deals on cheap tickets to Bangalore.

We went in the summer months of June and the weather conditions were very pleasant. Cool winds were blowing and it made me fall in love with the city. Since we were short of time we could not visit too many places. However in the time that we had we got a chance to see the stunning flower show which is held every year in June. It was a striking experience I must say. I saw so many different varieties of flowers all under one roof. Bangalore is also known as the temple town of India; hence visiting a few of these temples were a must.


I must say that Bangalore is very rich in terms of culture and heritage. A trip to the famous Venkataramanswamy Temple was a very nice experience. The temple is nearly 300 hundred years also. Bangalore is also eminent for its beautiful art galleries and museums. If you are fond of art then you must visit these places. One learns so much about a places history through museums. The place had me awestruck completely. The night life here is very entertaining.

There are many pubs and lounges to visit. We visited the Hard Rock Cafe and had a fabulous time with friends. It was an evening well spent listening to good music.  Bangalore has a lot of different cuisines because of its mix of cultures. So if you are a foodie like me then this is the place to be in.
