Ask anyone who’s lived in Bangalore for a long time, they know a palace exists but they’ve probably not been there! So take them along, and head to Palace Grounds, which most Bangaloreans have gone to only for rock concerts or fairs. From its ornate cornices to its sturdy granite exterior, the Bangalore Palace has a sprawling garden and one look from the outside will teleport you to one of the palaces in England. Dotted with several paintings of Raja Ravi Varma, and photographs chronicling the different Wodeyar families, the Bangalore Palace truly is a gem from the olden days.
