The fort built in the 16th century, the government museum, one of the oldest museums in India which has large collections of sculpture, pottery, weapons etc. Not far from the museum is the Visveshwaraya Science and Technology Museum; the botanical garden of Lalbagh, are a quiet getaway from the traffic-crowded streets.

The temple of Gangadhareshwara, the temple of Nandi, the Bull and you have to go to see the parliament, a draviden building built in 1954. 

Masjid-e-Khadria is one of the most beautiful mosques in Bangalore.
Trendy stores can be found on MG Road and Brigade road.

Bangalore has quite a happening night life with good restaurants and lots of rooftop bars and restaurants, where you can watch the sun go down on the city and the lights take over.

Some of the restaurants are quite chic, which means the bill usually is too, but there are a lot of trendy places that are not really expensive.

Alcohol in all its guises are freely available and quite cheap too.

The best food we had in Bangalore was fiery aloo chat, vegetable thali and masala dosa, we also had a curious, but delicious green pancake type thing called a palak dosa. There are also all of the usual south Indian foods such as dosa, vada, uttapam, ghee dosa – all very delicious.
