A Day At Nandi
The temples of India are the backbones of Indian history, philosophy, art and architecture. We visit two places – the Yoganandi or just Nandi Hills and the huge Bhoganandi temple at the foot of Nandi hills. While Nandi Hills is known for its lovely views, birds, forts, the temple at its foothills is known for elaborate structures in stone, carvings of Shiva stories, a lovely step well, centuries old balance, a repentant King and of course the lovely decorated Nandis. Let’s hear the stories, learn a mudra or two at the temple of Shiva, the God of Dance. From here, we walk through the area known as Sultanpet where Tipu’s & the English history pop out as anecdotes. Further down is Muddenahalli, the home of Sir MV, whose small abode is a museum of his times. Returning back, one can see the fort of Devanahalli & the fit ones could walk on the ramparts and imagine the war torn times of Tipu Sultan.

Towns Of Bangalore Walk
The urgency of the streets and the buzz of constantly flowing traffic hides from view the beautiful old Bangalore Cantonment’s areas – the ‘Towns’ of Bangalore. Bengaluru's 'Bangalore' has many towns - Richmond Town, Benson Town, Cox Town, Fraser Town etc.- with an English past. Admire the architecture of the ancient cathedrals, the 'monkey tops' and the trellises of ol world bungalows, the cuisines, the stories &. the people. The Towns of Bangalore, beyond the English, were a mix of diverse cultures and communities, bound by businesses and trade. Largely residential, these have today unified into the modern Bengaluru and have been ‘Indianised’ in some areas & roads. The pretty yesteryear laidback lifestyle and cottages have given way to a busier lifestyle, matched by traffic and little apartment blocks. However, there’s still many places that seem to have rooted to an era. Walk with us down this memory lane & understand the bygone English character of this part of the city.
