CLASSIC TOUR: The Big Bull of Bangalore has been drawing visitors to himself since 1537 when he was created by the Founder of Bangalore Magadi Kempe Gowda. Apparently, Kempe Gowda found a huge monolithic rock here which looked like a bull in its natural form and so he decided to give it a real look. The Bull (or Nandi) is the vehicle of Lord Shiva who is one of the three principal Hindu Gods. This is the fourth biggest among the seven monolithic big bulls found in South India. The Bull Temple and its environs are famous for Ground Nut Fair which is held in November every year. At the foothills of the hillock where the Nandi sits, there is a Ganesh temple famously called the Butter Ganesh. There are many more temples which are found in the whole complex which are worth visiting.

NEO-CLASSIC TOUR: The Bangalore Palace is reminiscent of the Windsor Castle of UK in its outlook. This palace was built in 1884 by Jayachamarajendra Wadiyar X, after buying the modest house built on the same place by Reverend Garett, the then Principal of Central College, Bangalore. It has been with the Mysore Royal family ever since and it now belongs to the 27th King in the lineage, Mr. Yaduweera Chamaraja Krishnadutta Wadiyar.

NEO-CLASSIC TOUR: Vidhana Soudha is the most important landmark of Bangalore. It is the Parliament of the State of Karnataka and the seat of power. It was built in 1956 by Kengal Hanumanthayya, the then Chief Minister. It is very interesting to note that a critical remark made by a Russian delegation member in 1950 prompted the CM to initiate this building. And he chose to build it right across the British vestige in a way to dominate it. Built in neo-dravidian architecture, Vidhana Soudh can be considered as one of the Top 10 parliament buildings in the World. This building can only be seen from the outside since entry is not allowed.

NEO-CLASSIC TOUR: St. Mary’s Basilica is Bengaluru’s oldest church and a spiritual anchor for its Catholic community. Its origins date to the 17th century when Tamil Christian settlers built a thatched shrine called "Madha Kovil" in Blackpally. French missionary Father Jean-Antoine Dubois later built a modest chapel here in the early 19th century, laying the foundation for its modern prominence. Architecturally, the basilica is a Gothic Revival masterpiece. Built in a cruciform layout, it features a towering 160-foot spire, elegant pointed arches, and vibrant stained-glass windows from Europe that illuminate the altar. The church's heartbeat is the annual St. Mary’s Feast in September. This 10-day festival draws millions of devotees of all faiths who wear saffron, attend novenas, and join the grand chariot procession on September 8. Today, the basilica is a sanctuary of peace in a tech hub. Offering multilingual masses, it remains a symbol of deep faith, heritage, and communal harmony.
