Bangalore Tours
Pleasant and surreal, Bangalore - the picture pretty capital of Karnataka invites you with open arms to come and see all that is scenic and enchanting about this 'city of gardens'.
Bangalore derives its name from an ancient legend according to which a hungry Hoysala king got lost in woods, when a local woman fed him with boiled beans and helped him rejuvenate. Thus the king christened this scenic area as 'Bengalooru' or the 'city of beans'.
In the later years this exotic region came to be known as Bangalore. An IT hub, Bangalore boasts of mesmerizing greens and wildlife sanctuaries that compliment modern malls and hi-tech offices.
