Lalbagh Botanical Gardens present an oasis of fresh air in the midst of chaotic traffic of Bangalore. It is a 240-acre garden which serves as a major lung space, promptly contributing to the pseudonym that Bangalore has earned - The Garden City of India.
Lalbagh hosts more than 2100 species of tropical & sub-tropical plants. Other highlights of Lalbagh are - A 3 billion year old rock; A 16-century Watch Tower built by Kempegowda II; A 300-year old White Silk Cotton tree; A 20-million year fossil; A 270-year old Mango tree planted by Hyder Ali in 1760; A 19th century iconic Glass House built by the British; A 150-year old tallest tree of the Garden (of Bangalore too!); A 19 CE British Musical Band stand; and so on.
Apart from these, there is a beautiful lake, a lotus pond, a topiary, coffee plants, amazing wood sculptures, flowering trees, etc. The tour ends with a sumptuous breakfast at Mavalli Tiffin Room (except on Monday), a renowned eatery of Bangalore.
