If you want a day of history, heritage, temple exploring and a picnic in a fort, plan a road trip to the Devanahalli Fort that is not more than an hour’s drive from the city. Start with the west-facing entrance to see elaborate plasterwork. A stone pathway takes you through the fort’s 500-year-old history and lets you in on some stories. Walk around and get a good understanding and feel of the architecture of the place. Also look out for 12 bastions at the fort and climb up on them for a great view of the Bangalore-Hyderabad highway.
