City : Banglore (bengaluru), Karnataka
Date : 09-Nov-2019
Day : Saturday

Banglore was my business trip from 4th Nov, 2019 to 13th Nov, 2019. Between those dates, I took benefit of visiting famous places in Banglore in weekend.

On 9th Nov,2019, Saturday, I took bounce bike and visited to Cubbon Park.

I read history about cubbon park there :

Cubbon Park Bengaluru Karnataka, officially called Sri Chamarajendra Park is a landmark 'lung' area of Bengaluru city, located within the heart of the city in the Central Administrative Area. Originally created in 1870, when Major General Richard Sankey was the then British Chief Engineer of Mysore state, it covered an area of 100 acres (0.40 km2) and subsequent expansion has taken place and the area reported now is about 300 acres (1.2 km2).

I clicked some photos :

Small Resturant - Here you can eat mostly rice, pulav, Chinese, ice-creams. It is near art gallery.

Good Time : If your stay is near to Cubbon park, come here for morning walk. It is very beautiful atmosphere here at morning. If you're stay far from this, still you can come early but take bicycle instead of walk. Just move around this whole park till 12:00 noon. After that, you reach to near art gallery and take lunch there as there is small food shop. And then Visit to Vidhan Soudha as it is open for public between 14:00 to 17:30 (if not interested to visit Vidhan Soudha, you can directly visit to art gallery). After visit to Vidhan Soudha, you can come back to art gallery, and visit it. You can plan to visit space museum. It will take around 4 hours. Around 18 to 18:15 you should be at top floor of space museum and see scenario outside and also you can take a pic of beautiful and tall UB Tower at evening.

On 9th Nov,2019, Saturday, I took bounce bike visited to Cubbon Park. In Cubbon Park, this library was there. 

About this library : 

The colonial beauty was constructed in 1908 in memory of Sir Seshadri Iyer (Diwan of Mysore) for his service and allegiance to the British Raj. It began functioning as a public library with 4750 books and 215 members in the year 1915.  

The Karnataka Government took over the library in 1966 and converted the public library into the State Central Library in 1986, where it was opened to the public only for consultation of the documents within its premises.

We can get very old books here.

Let's visit to more than 100 years old library by my clicks ...
