In pictures: Add these park experiences to your Bengaluru itinerary

Bengaluru, the capital city of Karnataka, is not your typical tourist destination. However, the city can be called a transit destination as travellers end up here on their way to places that are purely touristy; Hampi for instance. Bengaluru mostly attracts business travellers, and more often than not, the duration of your stay in the city is usually a short one. This is true for both business and leisure travellers.

If you find yourself in Bengaluru for a short period, take full advantage of the city’s beauty. The weather here is always pleasant. It’s always a great time to be out and about in Bengaluru, especially in and around the city’s public parks. The city has a beautiful connection with nature, and we are here with beautiful park experiences you can enjoy while in the city.

Bengaluru looks pretty in pink during the autumn season. You will find the bright pink rosy trumpet blossoms all over the city. Cubbon Park on Kasturba Road is one place where you can sit around and enjoy these picture-perfect nature moments.

The city has several nature parks where you will find, at this time of the year, beautiful blooms of bougainvillea. And they are everywhere. They can make your morning walks Insta-worthy!

Cubbon Park is home to around 6000 indigenous and exotic trees, making the park one of the most beautiful features of the city. The park’s tree-lined pathways look spectacular any day.

Do the 1 km butterfly trail inside the park, which is spread across an area of over 7.5 acres. There are around 48 species of butterflies in the park.

The botanical garden is a pretty massive tourist attraction. The history of Lalbagh goes back 200 years and, back then, the park introduced several species of ornamental plants. Lalbagh is spread over 240 acres, and is home to over 1000 species of plants.

Lalbagh is one of the city’s most loved parks. The walking paths are lined with trees and have benches all around for those who’d like to take a rest and simply enjoy the park’s vibe.
