Often referred to as the Silicon Valley of India, Bangalore is one of the fastest-growing cities in India, but it rarely gets as much attention as New Delhi and Mumbai. That shouldn’t stop you from visiting it because it has something in store for everyone—including nature lovers who should check out these three spots while exploring it.

Cubbon Park

Cubbon Park is one of the largest and most popular parks in Bangalore so it’s not surprising to hear people describe it as the “lungs of Bangalore”. Most people come here to explore its lush greenery, walking paths, and landscaped gardens, but the historic buildings and monuments inside it are also worth checking out.

Lalbagh Botanical Garden

Botanical gardens are always fun to visit if you enjoy being surrounded by nature at every turn, and Lalbagh is one of India’s very best. Modeled on London’s Crystal Palace, this botanical garden is home to several amazing attractions, including Lake Lalbagh, Lotus Pond, central greenhouse, bird observatory, and so much more.

Bannerghatta Biological Park

If you’re in the mood to step out of the city and discover Bangalore’s amazing surroundings, it doesn’t get much better than Bannerghatta. It features everything from a zoo and safari park to a butterfly conservatory and hiking trails, making it a popular destination for trekking and hiking.
