CUBBON PARK - A VICTORIAN WALK

A Victorian trail through Cubbon Park

Bangalore’s history is a tale of two cities—the Indian City or Pete and the European Cantonment with Cubbon Park serving as a bridge between the two. Walk back into 20th century Bangalore along the trees at Cubbon Park.

Meade's Park, Sri Chamarajendra Park, more popularly known as Cubbon Park, is more than a park. Alongside the great many species of plants and birds that call it their home, Cubbon Park also includes several of Bangalore's important buildings: Attara Kacheri—Karnataka High Court, museums, the Central Library, and an Aquarium, among other things.

Stroll through this green lung space in the heart of the city and learn of a Victorian era where gentlemen wore top hats and the ladies (memsahibs) held parasols; of a time when people commuted on horseback and danced in the ballrooms of Parade road.
