One Day Trips from Bangalore within 50 km
There are many lakes and hills near Bangalore within 50-60 km. Personally, I love going on long drives far away from the city, but if you are taking your kids or older parents with you, you may prefer a relaxed trip. These are also suitable for trekking spots like Savanadurga, Skandgiri and more. The ones I listed below are slightly less crowded than the above.

1. Bannerghatta National Park
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 1 Banerghata - one day trip from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/10268471_10152846634176201_8218481239059400829_n.jpg)
Located within 25kms from Bangalore City, many would argue that Bannerghatta National Park is very much within Bangalore. However, that shouldn't prevent you from spending an entire day in this wonderland rich with a variety of flora and fauna spread across 65000 acres including the Banerghatta Biological Park (currently operating as an independent entity).
Apart from the sanctuary that is home to a significant number of protected lions and tigers, the premises also include a zoo, a butterfly park and a lake for boating. It is a great choice for one day outing in Bangalore with kids.
After an exhilarating experience in the national park you can drive to Thottikallu waterfalls, just 10 km away from here.
Book a tour of Bannerghatta National Park
2. Manchinbele Dam and Big Banyan Park
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 2 Beautiful view of Manchinbele Dam - Best Bangalore Daytrip within 50 km](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/manchinbele-2Bdam.jpg)
Distance: 45 km | Things to do: Picnic, Water Sports | Duration: 4-5 hours
This is the easiest weekend getaway from Bangalore, a favorite among corporate junkies yet surprisingly devoid of the crowd on the weekends. Originally constructed for irrigation purpose, the place is now famous for water-sports and corporate team-building activities. If you are not into this type of thing you can simply park your car away from the entrance, walk on the hills and enjoy the beauty of nature. The view of the blue water blending with the clear blue sky is spectacularly serene. It is also a great picnic spot for family and friends.

Bonus! On your way back you can head to Dodda Alada Mara, the 400-year-old Big Banyan Tree near Bangalore. Covering 3 acres area, this is one of the largest trees of its kind and is home to a beautiful park. Another place you can add to this one-day trip is a beautiful lake Nelligudde kere .
3. Ramnagaram Night Trek or a day trip from Bangalore

Distance: 55 km | Things to do: Trekking, Camping| Duration: 12 hours
This is the place where the famous dacoit Gabbar Singh used to live with his gang.
Yes, Ramnagaram is the shooting location of the legendary Indian movie “Sholay” but this is not its only claim to fame. Amidst the dense forests stand the granite hills that you can never miss being awestruck at. A trek to the peak will take roughly 2-3hours for rookies. This is also one of the few places that are still open for night trek and camping near Bangalore.
You can easily start the early morning at 5 am and reaching a peak at night and waking up to the golden sunrise is an experience you do not want to miss.
One Day Trips from Bangalore within 100 km
There are many exciting places to visit around Bangalore within 100km. These include picnic spots, hill-tops, medieval forts, and ancient caves.

Distance: 67 km | Attractions: Temple, Panoramic views| Duration: 4-6 hours
Just 67km away from Bangalore, accessible through a 1-1.5 hour drive through the amazing Tumkur road lies one of the really off-beat places for travel lovers in Bangalore.
Dotted with 1000-year old Jain temples this round hillock also offers a spectacular sunset for nature enthusiasts. The large rocks on the hill and the peacock feather design of the Jain temple provide perfect “Instagramic” backdrop for your photos. You can also visit for a small trekking opportunity to keep yourself fit.
6. One day trip from Bangalore to Antargange Caves and Hoskote
Distance: 69 km | Attractions: Trek,Cave exploration| Duration: 6-8 hours
Antargange in Kolar is one of the most popular attractions for adventure-loving youngsters. At an altitude of 1712 meters, it offers spectacular views and thrilling experience of cave exploration.
The 3 km trek will take 2hours uphill, after which you can visit the temple Kashi Vishweshwara. If you are not too tired on your way back, you can complete this one-day trip from Bangalore with a tour of the historic fort area of Hoskote.
7. A trip to Avalabetta and Gudibande Fort- Two short treks in a day
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 6 one day trip to avabetta from bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/avalabetta-day-trip-min.jpg)
Distance: 90 km | Attractions: History, Nature| Duration: 9-10 hours
On a regular weekend, a drive to Avalabetta will take 2-2.5 hours. After that, a 1.5 km trek will lead you to the cap-shaped rock-cliff, an attractive point for photography. Unless you visit in the dry summer months you will get to see a pond at the hill-top which adds to the beauty. Note that the path to the hilltop is blocked now for many months due to some accidents.
After descending from the peak you can either drive back home (why the hell? ) or drive just 24km ahead to reach the Gudibande Fort. This is a massive 17th-century fort with well-preserved walls, which can be reached by a flight of steps. Personally, I (and all 3 of my travel buddies in the trip) liked the Gudibande fort way more in all respects – no crowd, interesting architecture, cave temples, and panoramic view.
Read about our trip to Avalabetta and Gudibande fort from Bangalore .
One Day trips from Bangalore within 150 km
Let me tell you there are too many options for a one-day trip from Bangalore within 150 km, too many to list in one single post. Below are some of the most scenic trails from Bangalore.
9. One Day Trip from Bangalore to Madhugiri
Distance: 110 km | Attractions: History, Nature| Duration: 9-10 hours
Madhugiri is the second largest monolith in Asia, a feat that deserves attention in itself. However, perched atop the hill is a historic fort of the Vijayanagara empire. The Madhugiri Fort has some of the earliest water tanks of India which were built to harvest rainwater.
The trek to Madhugiri fort is of moderate difficulty but the grandeur of the fort and the views from the hill-top will make it worthwhile.
Check out the list of best forts in India chosen by travel experts.
10. One Day Trip to Sangam, Mekedatu and Chunchi Falls
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 7 bangalore one day tour places](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/chuchi.jpg)
Distance: 115 km | Things to do: Scenic drive, Nature| Duration: 8-11 hours
A scenic 2-hour drive away from Bangalore lies the beautiful natural spot, the confluence of the two most important rivers of Karnataka – Arkavathi and Cauvery. On your way, you will drive through winding uphill road lined with seasonal trees on both sides which look surreal in summer when they dry-up. It was a hot summer afternoon when we visited the place, but it was still throbbing with travelers.
Drive just 4km from here to reach Mekadatu to see the stunning natural designs formed on granite rocks formed by the river Cauvery cutting through it for thousand years. On your way back you can also trek to the Chunchi Falls. A trip covering all these three locations will take 10 hours.
11. Day Trip to Jayamangali Blackbuck Conservation Reserve
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 8 bangalore one day tour places](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/blackbucks.jpg)
Distance: 117 km | Things to do: Vineyards, Wildlife| Duration: 7-8 hours
Jayamangali blackcuck conservation reserve is located in the Tumkur district of Karnataka, at the border of andhra Pradesh. Besides blackcucks it is famous for beautiful vineyards. The arid grasslands provide a great location for photography. These endangered species is a dark colored antelopes indigenous to India. It is also the state animal of Andhra Pradesh.
12. Day trip from Bangalore to Hogenekkal Falls and Forests
Hogenekkal falls is wide plunge formed by the Kaveri river in Dharmapuri district of Tamil Nadu. It is a charming perennial waterfall and one of the most popular places near Bangalore for one-day trips despite its distance.
You can also take a coracle or boat ride in the river here. Unlike Shivanasamudra, Hogenekkal still allows tourists to reach till the bottom of the waterfall. Since it is a perennial fall, it is the best time to visit is between October – March. The water gets extremely muddy in monsoon.
Distance: 124 km | Things to do: Scenic drive, Nature| Duration: 8-11 hours
13. One Day Trip to Kaigal Falls via Chhota Ladakh
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 9 Tree-covered trekking trail of Kaigal Falls - a great place for one-day trip.](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/kaigal-trek.jpg)
We trekked to Kaigal Falls on our way to Horsley Hills. That's not a bad idea, but I've a better plan for a one0day trip combining Kaigal Falls with Chhota Ladakh.
Dodda Ayur earns its name “Chhota Ladakh” from the rustic beauty of a barren moon-like terrain at a high altitude. A charming lake was formed in the hills through a natural process of rainwater that collected in the stone mining quarry.
It's a picture-perfect picnic spot just 56km away from Bangalore is one of the best places to visit near Hoskote.
However, you can drive further from here to the Kaigal Falls, located about 40 KMs from Chhota Ladak. It involves a leisurely hike through the forests leading to a seasonal waterfall.
This is the perfect itinerary for a scenic one-day trip near Hoskote.
14. A day trip from Bangalore to Lepakshi
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 10 One Day Trip from Bangalore - Lepakshi](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Lepakshi-1.jpg)
Distance: 130 km| Attractions: Temple, Architecture | Duration: 6-8 hours
Lepakshi is a historical town in Andhra Pradesh which is home to the iconic Veerabhadra Temple. The temple is an architectural masterpiece which has so many mysteries surrounding it. Did you hear of a temple with a hanging pillar? This is that temple.
Apart from this, you can find the giant Nandi Statue (a monolithic bull structure) and the Jatayu theme park. These 2 attractions apart from the great temple are enough to keep you engaged for 4-5 hours at Lepakshi, if not more.
Book a deeply engaging private Lepakshi day trip from Bangalore .
15. One Day trip from Bangalore to Shivasamudra
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 11 bangalore one day tour places](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/shivanasamudram-1.jpg)
Distance: 135 km | Attractions: Nature| Duration: 8 hours
Drive about 30 km more from Talakadu and you will reach this picturesque village Shivanasamudra which is home to the Barachukki and Gaganachukki falls. These perennial waterfalls have been consistently ranked among the 100 most beautiful waterfalls in the world. Best time for a trip to Shivanasamudra is in monsoon. Unlike Hogenekkal, the water is not muddy here in the rains.
Book a trip to Shivanasamudra and Somnathpura Temple
A trip to Shivasamudra via Manchinbele Lake is one of the best routes for long drives around Bangalore . The one day trip from Bangalore to Shivanasamudra can also be clubbed with Talakadu i nstead.
16. Shravanabelegola – Tallest monolithic statue in the world
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 12 Shravanabelehola](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/shravanabelegola.jpg)
Distance: 143 km | Attractions: Heritage, Active Pilgrimage| Duration: 10 hours
Shravanabelegola is most famous for the Gomateshwara Bahubali temple which has a 58 ft statue of Mahaveer Jain – the tallest monolithic statue in the world. The temple is accessible via a flight of 620 steps.
The temple dates back to 983 A.D. but is in such a great condition that it is hard to believe its age. Apart from the architectural wonders, the temple also offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the town.
There are many other old temples which you can explore here, all of which date back to 800-1000 years. For a history-seeker this is a great destination for one day trip near Bangalore.
17. A One Day trip from Bangalore to Horsley Hills
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 13 One Day Trip from Bangalore - Horsley Hills Governor's Bunglow](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Horsley-Hills-1.jpg)
Often dubbed as the Ooty of Andhra Pradesh, Horsley is a beautiful hill station only 140 km from Bangalore. Vibrant blossoms greet you on your way leading to the Horsley Hills. There are two viewpoints which offer a great panorama.
One Day trip within 200km from Bangalore
For longer day trips, it's best to hire a car for full day or drive yourself. Using public transportation may not be the best option as the buses are frequently delayed. Here are my favorite places to visit on a day-trip from Bangalore within 200km, where you can easily drive to.
18. Yelagiri – Hills, lakes and adventure sports
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 14 One Day trip form Bangalore to Yelagiri](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Yelagiri.jpg)
Distance : 159km | Trekking, Nature,Adventure| Duration: 10 hours
With temperate climate and greenery all year round, this hill station in Tamil Nadu is one of the best day trips from Bangalore for adventure lovers. The drive uphill needs a little bit of expertise but the views from 3465 ft are breathtaking.
On our 11-hour trip, we just trekked to Swamimalai Hill-top, had lunch and returned. If you leave early you can visit the Punganoor Lake, Nature Park and telescope observatory. There are a number of resorts and decent hotels to stay overnight if you want to spend more time.
19. Somnathapura and Talakadu – One Day trip from Bangalore
![Picture-perfect Talakadu Unearthed temples and natural beauty of Talakadu - perfect temple day trip](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/One-2Bday-2Btrip-2Bfrom-2BBangalore-2B2.jpg)
Distance : 160km | Trekking, Nature, Adventure| Duration: 10 hours
Somnathapura and Talakadu are sites with a large number of ancient temples, but most importantly they are architectural hotspots near Bangalore which you would enjoy visiting irrespective of your faith.
In simple words, you can call this mini-Hampi which is accessible in one day trip.
Your first stop will be Keshava Temple in Somnathpura, an icon of the skills of Hoysala craftsmen. 24km from Somnathpur lies the mythical village of Talakadu, once known as the Benaras of the South.
Talakadu was a Hindu Pilgrimage site which went under dunes of sand few hundred years ago. More than architecture, the natural beauty and folklores are the highlights of Talakadu.
You can end your trip with a magical coracle ride in the serene waters of the Cauvery. The Talakadu Cauvery basin is a great place for a picnic near Bangalore. This is a great one-day outing in Bangalore.
Book a day tour of Talakadu and Somnathpur
If you love history and architecture and visiting Bangalore for the first time, I strongly recommend these guided day-tours for you.
- Bangalore historic excursion
- Day Trip to Shivanasamudra waterfalls and Somnathpura temples
- Day trip to Belur, Hallebeedu, and Shravanabelagola
When in Horsley you can just soak yourself in the natural beauty of the place and once done, you can head to the Horsley Zoo which is home to some amazing wildlife.

20. Mysore Wildlife – Ranganathittu and Mysore Zoo
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 15 Mysore Zoo - one of the oldest and largest zoos in India](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/zoo.jpg)
Distance: 165 km | Attractions: Wildlife Watching | Duration: 12 hours
Mysore is also the city famous for amazing natural beauty and wildlife. If you have kids, my bet is they will definitely enjoy this Mysore day trip more than the one above. Mysore Zoo is easily one of the best and largest zoo facilities in India. There are many cafes and parks in the zoo, and this is itself could be a great day trip from Bangalore.
However, I love to see the wild in the open, so my favorite is Ranganathittu wildlife sanctuary. Remember to carry your binoculars and a high-zoom camera to feast your eyes with the sight of colorful birds and capture them through your lens.
You can book a guided excursion to Mysore from Bangalore as well.
21. One day trip from Bangalore to BR Hills
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 16 Dence forest in the BR Hills - 1 Day outing from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/BR-Hills-1.jpg)
Distance: 178km | Attractions: Nature,Sightseeing | Duration: 12 hours
The BR hills are located at the border of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, in the Western Ghats. It is named after the Biligiriranga temple built atop the hill. It is an ecological hotspot with a large variety of wild beasts including sloth bear, antelopes, peafowls and even tigers.
These are not easy to catch a glimpse of though, as they are scattered all over the region. You can, however, see a lot of monkeys and birds in the picturesque wildlife sanctuary. The view from the hill is also a sight to behold.
It is on the same route as Shivanasamudra so you may try to club it with the same.
22. Mysore Iconic – Mysore Palace & Brindavan Gardens
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 17 Mysore Palace](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/mysore-palace-1.jpg)
Distance: 181 km | Things to do: Scenic drive, sightseeing, picnic| Duration: 15 hours
The cultural capital of Karnataka and the cleanest city of South India is not a place that you can explore in less than two days. The two iconic landmarks of Mysore are the Mysore Palace, the home to the Royal family of Mysore and the Vrindavan Gardens, one of Bollywood’s favorite Desi location.
In a round-trip spanning 12 hours, you can easily cover both these places even and even more. I highly recommend visiting the amazing sand sculpture museum in the city. Check out the best Mysore itinerary for different types of vacation.
Mysore is a beautiful city which needs more than a day to explore. Book this 2-day guided tour to experience the best of Mysore in 2 days.
Doable One Day trip over 200km from Bangalore
If you love long drives as much as we do, you may want to push your boundaries and drive over 400 km in a day. The excellent roads of national and state highways of Karnataka make such trips possible. Although I'd always recommend staying somewhere overnight, I'd say that it is doable in a day if you don't have another day to spare.
23. Shettihalli Church – Drowning monument
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 18 Shettihalli Church - One day Trips from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/shettihalli.jpg)
Distance: 223 km | Attractions: Ruins,Nature| Duration: 9-10 hours
The Shettihalli Church is the ruins of a French Gothic church built in 1860, but the ruins have their own appeal. The Shettihalli Rosemary church is famously called the drowning church as it drowns under the Hemavathi river in monsoon and emerges back in the summer!
In 1960 the villages near the church were deserted due to the construction of the Gorur dam, and the church was left abandoned. The dilapidated roofless church has its own charm and has become a sought after location for photo-shoots, which make you wonder if the church in its former self-was as attractive as the site of ruins.
A peaceful area tucked away from the main city of Hassan, is an ideal place to relax, take a boat ride and watch the sunset. While the distance is more, the road is a breeze and the scenic trails make the drive worthwhile.
24. Temple Trails of Belur and Halebidu
Distance : 227 km | Attractions: Fort, Nature | Duration: 15 hours
The journey Belur and Halebidu takes you to the 12th century, during the peak of the Hoysala Empire. Start early in the morning to avoid traffic and reach the ancient capital located 220 KMs from Bangalore.
Your first stop is the Chennakesava Temple in Belur, a marvel that took over a hundred years to build.
The temple complex is a treasure trove of intricate carvings depicting animals, dancers, and episodes from epics like the Ramayana and Mahabharata.
What sets these sculptures apart is that they're signed off by their creators, often with boastful epithets.
After quick lunch, head to Halebeedu, just 16 KMs from Belur. Here, you'll spend a couple of hours exploring two magnificent temples dedicated to Hoysalesvara and Shantalesvara.
25. One day trip from Bangalore to Gandikota
Distance : 285 km | Attractions: Fort, Nature | Duration: 15 hours
The last two in this list is for crazy road-trippers who can drive more than 600 km in a day. I recommend these for a one-day trip is due to the dearth of accommodation options nearby.
Gandikota is a village named after a 14th-century fort . The Gandikota fort, in turn, got its name from the giant gorge formed by the Pennar river cutting through the Erramala Hills . Its structure and beauty earn it the name Grand Canyon of India . It's one of the best places near Bangalore for a one day trip.
If you are into overnight camping you can spend a night at the campsite.
26. A one day trip from Bangalore to Belum Caves
![Billion year old Belum caves Belum Caves - the longest one-day trip from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/one-2Bday-2Btrip.jpg)
Distance: 300km| Attractions: Ruins, Nature| Duration: 15 hours
Belum caves is a natural cave which is estimated to be millions of years old. There were many vessels and sculptures found inside the caves which date back to the ancient period.
It is the longest cave in the Indian sub-continent that is open to the public and is home to the mysterious Patalganga, a perennial water-flow inside the caves. You can club this with the Yaganti cave temples 44 km away or Gandikota which is slightly closer to Bangalore.
You can also explore Gandikota, Belum caves and other nearby attractions in Andhra Pradesh on a long weekend trip .
Well, these are my favorites among all the amazing places to visit near Bangalore on excursions. Before you leave, I want to share with you the best travel sites for bookings trips in India and seeking some travel inspirations as well.

Wow, I didn't know that southern India had such interesting landscapes. I already had plans to visit the northern part via motorbike, but now it makes me wonder if I should take a longer holiday and expand my trip 😀
Oh wow! I didn’t realize how much nature there is so close to the city!
Great post- I love posts that list day trips from a location. It feels like you can expand a visit to your original location and see so much more!!
Bangalore is one of the places that I wanna visit, and I liked your post a lot. Thank you I will take it as a guide
It’s funny. Your first sentence describes exactly what I used to think about Bangalore before reading your post! Thanks for educating me.
Wow That is crazy. I had no idea of these places. I would love to travel to India someday and discover all the great things the country has to offer.
Wow! I fell in love with your pictures of the waterfalls! Can't believe you can fit all these places in one day!
I will definitely use your post as a guide for when I get to Bangalore. These places looks amazing! Thanks for sharing 🙂
I have been to Bangalore once, with not with the right people, couldn't enjoy a lot! 🙁 I must return
So many places here I've never heard of. Definitely lots for me to discover in India, thanks for sharing some great ideas.
I am always shipping things to Bangalore for work. There is definitely a lot to see. Gandikota Is simply beautiful, would love to go there!
What a wonderful experience, Shettihalli Church was my favorite. A lot of fantastic places to see and explore. I would love to go soon!
Im in love with Shivanasamudra. those waterfalls look so beautiful! Ive heard about all the great places to visit but thanks to your pictures i can finally tell how stunning it is.
What a great list of places to visit from Bangalore. I really like to drowning church – that’s amazing how it floods and then is back to dry. And there are so many waterfalls! It’s a shame that some tourists have forced the closing of some of the close observation decks. The waterfalls are probably less muddy when it isn’t rainy season.
Thanks for sharing wonderful day trips from Bangalore. I would love to see 400 year old nearby Manchinbele Dam and the whole place looks beautiful. Good to know that famous Sholay was shot in Ramnagaram as I always thought it was shot in M.P.. All places look wonderful and worth visiting.
I am so glad your list doesn't feature Nandi Hills. Haha. Anyway, having stayed in bangalore for more than 5 years now, I have kind of ran out of destinations to visit in a day.
Loved this post so much! A great comprehensive review of some amazing places. I travelled to India last year but unfortunately didn't get to visit Bangalore. Definitely will be looking into returning 😀
I love the Falls and Lepakshi already. That statue and the footprint are just so unique and I'd love to know the story behind them. Lemme go Google…
Woah! Incredible list, Sinjana! Great work here. Gandikota, Hampi, and Lepakshi are on top of my to-do list but don't know when. Hopefully, soon.
Never thought Bangalore as diverse as this! Crazy how you have canyons, falls, amazing landscapes and architecture at the same place! Chunchi alone is enough to make me go there. I'm crazy about waterfalls lol
I haven't yet been to India, but every time I discover new things about it from travel blogs, it's yet another confirmation, another reason to move it up the bucket list 🙂
What an amazing list! I visited some of these places when I went to Bangalore and was surprised to find such amazing landscapes in South India.
I really want to travel through India more and more. Bangalore looks beautiful and so much culture as well. It's definitely on my bucketlist.
These are amazing day trip suggestions from Bengaluru. There is so much to be explored. Would love to rely on this post for weekend getaways and share with my friends in the city.
What a crazy collection of hikes and sites from Bangalore! I had no idea that there was so much so close. I think visiting Bannerghatta National Park and seeing Thottikallu falls would be the first up on my list!
I didn’t know that South India had such beautiful mountainesque landscapes the first time I visited. I went to Mysore and Gandikota and was absolutely awed. However, now I see that there are a few more places that I missed. Hopefully, I can make up for it during my next visit. Thank you for this amazing list, Sinjana!
Wow. Never knew there was so juicy to see around Bangalore. I have visited the city several times and always try and get away from the concrete jungle Done Mysore and other places. Would live to visit the waterfalls at chinchi and the Lepsshki. Thanks for sharing these offbeat places a short drive away.
his is a really handy post, as I have family working in Bangalore so could potentially do these trips during a visit. Am particularly drawn to the first place in your list, the Machinbele Dam and also the Big Banyan Tree on way back. All the rest of ideas also look great, such as Madhugiri and Lepakshi. Some of the others, perhaps we could do as part of a road trip, rather than there and back in a single day.
I had no idea there’s so much nature and hiking around Bangalore! i would honestly want to take almost all of these trips, which may require me to move to Bangalore for a year! The Hogenekkal Falls look incredible and like nothing I’ve seen before. If I could only pick one trip, that’s probably what I’d choose. Awesome list!
This is a fabulous list of “cliche” or typical tourist destination and those off the beaten path. I would love to visit Lepakshi and the Shettihalli Church. Both of these places look so massive and beautiful! I’m stunned just by your photos. Definitely will visit these destinations when exploring Bangalore.
Wow being the 4th largest tech hub, it’s pretty incredible how much nature there is here in Bangalore. I would love to visit the 400-year old Banyan Tree at Dodda Alada Mara. And wow the Belum Caves being millions years old sounds incredible – it’s incredible that it’s one of the longest that’s open to the public. I totally would love to visit this amazing work of nature.
I never imagined Bangalore with a good nature spots! Wow! I’m very amazed! It makes me want to go back again to India soon. Great sceneries! I want to put it in my travel list.
Chunchi Falls looks beautiful. And, the 400 year old Banyan Tree. As others have noted, I didn’t think of Bangalore for nature. And, I love caves so Belum is interesting.
This is a great post full of information. I could certainly base myself in Bangalore and visit some of the places your mentioned – especially the Forts which I love visiting and temples. I loved the way you broke it down with how far and how long. Really helps in the planning.
Avalabetta and Gudibande Fort and Belum Caves are my favorites. I have stayed in Bengaluru for like 8 years and been to many of these places, though at many instances, I have spent more than 1 day there. However, this is totally apt for the people who work in Bengaluru offices. They will have great options to visit so many new places over the weekends. I am sure this list is going to be really helpful to them.
Dude, there are so many fun day trips to take near Bangalore! And the variety of different attractions is staggering. I would love to visit Shivanasamudra. I can’t believe those falls! I haven’t been here before and would love to discover all of these places!
You have been on so many amazing day trips in your new(ish) home – it’s inspiring me to explore my state of New York and all of the nature around it even more 🙂 Your pictures are also AMAZING, especially of the waterfalls. It sort of reminded me a bit of my trip to Iceland! Having never been to India before I think I mainly associated it with more urban areas, but these hikes (and particularly the “Grand Canyon”) were so beautiful to see!
Thanks Lauren. There are just innumerable places to get close to nature near Bangalore. India is full of surprises 🙂
Mandagiri looks like my favourite of these. Then again Mysore Palace looks pretty damn cool too. In fact, I want to do them all!
I love lists like this one. There are so many things to do even on a day trip close to almost every city. I have never been to Bangalore, but when I go, this list will be my go-to-guide for my day trips.
This is such a thorough and helpful guide for any one visiting India. I never knew there are so many beautiful places near to Bangalore. This itinerary will be very useful to me when I visit India. Thank you for such a great post.
Thanks for sharing. It was useful and informative.
Shivanasamudra looks so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for reading
Now I have new places to add to my bucket list… thank you!
Thanks Kristin!

An Ultimate Bangalore Itinerary: Best of Bangalore in one day
![bangalore one day tour places](https://i0.wp.com/thewanderingcore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Bangalore-Featured-1.jpg?resize=750%2C565&ssl=1)
Bangalore: The ‘Silicon City of India ‘ or the famous IT hub where every college graduate dreams to land a great job. Initially conceptualized as the city for retirees somehow landed the status of IT capital of the county. Compared to California’s silicon city, the city usually overflows with geeks & business tourists. A pit stop for other must-see places in Karnataka , Bangalore is a place often ignored as a tourist destination.
I always dreamed of visiting Bangalore with a will to explore beyond its skyscrapers. Here’s my ultimate Bangalore itinerary where I spent a day so I present the best of Bangalore in one day.
Karnataka is a beautiful Indian state, not limited to Bangalore (Duh!!). There are numerous tourists places in Karnataka which will mesmerize you. Here’s a detailed guide to Karnataka which covers everything you need to know about alluring.
![bangalore one day tour places Bangalore Itinerary | Bangalore in One day | One day in Bangalore | Bangalore itinerary for one day | #india #bangalore |travel](https://i0.wp.com/thewanderingcore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Bangalore-one-day-itinerary-1.jpg?resize=377%2C565&ssl=1)
An Ultimate Bangalore Itinerary: Everything about doing Bangalore in One Day the right way
Bangalore is a metro city with a number of places to visit, which is why I recommend staying at least 2 days here. If you are short on time with only one day in Bangalore, I’ll share my tips in this Bangalore itinerary about what to do & where to eat.
Bangalore in One Day: The Morning
No matter where you’re staying, I suggest starting your day at 8:00 AM with an early breakfast. I stayed in Indiranagar where a couple of cafes opened as soon as 8:00 AM which gave me a headstart for the day. I started my day with a cup of chai at the Tata Cha, which opened right at 8:00.
Vidhana Soudha
Next, hire a cab or an auto to take you to Cubbon Park. On your way make a pit-stop at the Vidhana Soudha or Legislative Assembly of Karnataka. This is one of the most beautifully designed government buildings in India. Although it is not allowed for tourists or normal public to go inside, the outside structure is a feast for eyes, especially for architecture fanatics. I spent some time outside on my way back but it is way better if we do it the other way.
![bangalore one day tour places Vidhana Soudha](https://i0.wp.com/thewanderingcore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Vidhana-Soudha.jpg?resize=491%2C327&ssl=1)
Did you know? This is the largest state legislative building in India.
The grandeur of the Vidhana Soudha is noticeable from far off. Made of off-white & beige granite & porphyry stones, in Neo-Dravidian style. The building is decorated with domes and flaunts the visible hints of Indo-Saracenic architecture similar to one in Delhi’s North block & Chennai’s high court.
![bangalore one day tour places VS](https://i0.wp.com/thewanderingcore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/VS.jpg?resize=465%2C309&ssl=1)
Cubbon Park
Similar to Delhi’s Lodhi Garden but much magnanimous in size. Dating back to the 18th-century, the park remains the lifeline of Bangalore. The gradual movements of traffic, the visible lackadaisical attitude of the people taking shade in the trees and artists trying to capture moments all blends into the soul of this park.
![bangalore one day tour places](https://i0.wp.com/thewanderingcore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Cubbon-Park_.jpg?resize=750%2C500&ssl=1)
A walk in Cubbon Park while trying to complete the places to visit in Bangalore in one day is a must! Without this, you’re missing the heart of the city. After the walk, head to Koshy’s for a mouth-watering breakfast, it is one of the oldest cafes in the area & you’ll not be disappointed.
Bangalore in One Day: Afternoon
Bangalore is a metro city & so the main tourist places of Bangalore are spread out in all directions. Not a walkable city which is why uber, auto or metro is the best way to commute in Bangalore. Take your pick and head to Bangalore Palace next.
![bangalore one day tour places Bangalore Itinerary | Bangalore in One day | One day in Bangalore | Bangalore itinerary for one day | #india #bangalore |travel](https://i0.wp.com/thewanderingcore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/A-day-in-Bangalore-1.jpg?resize=433%2C649&ssl=1)
Bangalore Palace
Now a metro city, Bangalore holds its’ share of history. Going back in the 18th-century, the palace is built as a fortified fort during the Wadiyar dynasty. The interiors are well-decorated with intricate wooden work. However, the palace draws its inspiration from the Tudor theme & Gothic architecture.
![bangalore one day tour places Bangalore Palace (1)](https://i0.wp.com/thewanderingcore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Bangalore-Palace-1.jpg?resize=461%2C307&ssl=1)
The interiors however largely speak volumes of Hindu culture. The bright walls painted with Hindu elements, elegant furniture, alluring chandeliers, and intricate ceilings. The balconies carved with fine wooden work and the floors decorated with imprinted tiles. The rooms are adorned with colorful pillars and simplistic arches. The huge decorated doors and large windows beautify the interiors of the palace.
An underdog in tourism is a must-see place in Bangalore. The entry fee for the Palace is 250₹ or 4.5$ for Indians & 450₹ (7$) for foreigners with a photography charge. Although the hefty fee of 700₹ (10$) for photography was a spoiler me. Despite all these hefty charges, Bangalore Palace should be on your check-list for things to do in Bangalore in one day.
Take a lunch break before heading off to your next destination.
Bangalore in One Day: Evening
Tipu sultan palace.
Bengaluru’s history dates back to the Cholas, Mughals, and then the British empire. Tipu Sultan was one of the most progressive leaders of the Mysore empire who rules Bengaluru. Tipu Sultan’s Palace is one of the most visited places in Bangalore.
A classic example of Indo-Islamic architecture, with interiors of teakwood. A medley of brown and golden shades embellishes the pillars, balconies and the durbar hall. The ornate work is visible on the arches & galleries of the palace. I highly recommend visiting the palace for reminiscing with the history of this high-tech city.
Reach the Tipu Sultan’s summer Palace before the closing time of 17h30m local time.
Head back for a scrumptious meal in the Indira Nagar where you will be spoilt for choices. Try Burma Burma for vegetarian & Vegan food choices, but make an appointment as it is usually busy at dinner time. I couldn’t relish a meal there because of waiting up to an hour, so I tried The Pizza Bakery instead. Loved their decor, I always love the ambiance decorated with plants. Their sluggish service didn’t bother me as I wanted to enjoy the “Me” time.
Where to stay in Bengaluru
Bengaluru is a business city with numerous options of hotels to choose from. Be it hostels, hotels or even Airbnb , there’s no dearth of choices for every sort of requirement.
– Backpacker’s Panda – I chose to stay in a hostel this time & tried Backpacker’s Panda in Indira Nagar.
![bangalore one day tour places](https://i0.wp.com/thewanderingcore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Bckpckrs-Panda.jpg?resize=750%2C563&ssl=1)
The hostel is adorned with murals & wall art. In the prime residential area, the huge lawn & sitting area on the entrance is incredible. The hostels have separate dorms for women & men, and the bathrooms are supplied with bathtub & tissues. With only a day in Bangalore, I couldn’t enjoy my time in the hostel much. But I realized it pretty quick, the staff was extremely friendly and people in general nice there. It is one of the most sought hostels in the city with some people staying for longer durations of more than a month. The chance to make friends, great accommodation & at an amazing price is Backpacker’s Panda for you. Despite my first time in a hostel, I felt pretty safe there, which is why I can recommend it to all those who love to stay in hostels.
If all this intrigued you, you can check their availability and prices here .
If you prefer to stay in hotels with the privacy of own room & services, here are some of the best hotels in the city for you –
– Radisson Blu Atria – The Radisson chain is already a great starter for me. With the advantage of location & mouth-watering cuisine, the hotel is one of the best places to stay in Bangalore. A perfect spot for the business & corporate traveler who like to combine luxury within their budget.
Check out their prices here , they offer rooms starting from 6000₹ ~ 85$.
– Fortune Select Trinity – A perfect hotel for the families with their amazing babysitting services. Those who love gorgeous interiors with bathtubs and ironing facilities, Fortune is an amazing choice for those.
– Lemon Tree Premier – A hotel with a surrounding of green environment and the close proximity of Ulsoor Lake. An ideal business hotel with services like a fitness center, spa, and Pan Asian cuisine. The hotel is ideal for those looking for a budgeted hotel.
Check out their prices here , they offer rooms starting from 3500₹ ~ 50$.
It is definitely not enough to delve into Bengaluru in one day. The city demands more but just a day was enough for me to love the city. If you have a few days in Bangalore, I suggest heading to Coorg , especially for the love of coffee. I was supposed to too, but my plans changed, but I am definitely going back soon.
Would you prefer to stay one day in Bangalore or more? I am definitely going back for more, what about you?

Ah the Garden City, Shivani. I loved Bangalore! We stayed for roughly a week. Plenty of walking around town. Plus we spent time during the cool season so things got brisk at night. What a fun time.
I am not sure if this could be a good suggestion, but, after a quick visit to Tippu’s Palace, evening can be best spent at Lalbagh Garden, followed by some eateries near Gandhibazaar and Basavanagudi which are close by.

![bangalore one day tour places best places to visit in Bangalore in one day, what to see in Bangalore in a day](https://worlderingaround.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Bangalore-2.jpg)
Third biggest city in India , with the population of 8,5 mln. Large, cosmopolitan and busy, with a booming IT industry, that brings Bangalore a name of “Silicon Valley of India”. Great dining, shopping and even drinking scene are combined with constant development, big traffic congestion and rising pollution. It’s an interesting city and although Bangalore sightseeing doesn’t include world-class sights, you can still find many places there worth visiting and chill before your next destination.

Best places to visit in Bangalore in a day
Bangalore is a huge city and if you are short on time, you need to make a good plan on what you need to do. Traffic might be very bad, especially during the peak hours and commuting from one place to another can take you hours.
It has happened to me, as I got delayed on the way to Bangalore, and after I reached the city centre, it was already afternoon, so I just had a few hours in the city. I managed to see only some of the main places, but I had much more on my list! My Indian friends living in Bangalore recommended them, so if you have time, try to see them all.
Location map below.
ISKCON Temple
Hare Krishna Temple is built on a hill and located in the North Bangalore, around 8km from the centre of town. It’s handy when you are coming or going to the airport, which is also in the north. The International Society of Krishna Consciousness (Iskcon) manages the temple, hence its name.
Unfortunately, when I got there, the temple was just closing, for a mid-time break, that lasts from 1pm-4:15 pm.You can find the exact schedule here . However, I managed to convince the guards to let me in just to the complex for a few photos and walk around. They were very nice and showed me the best photo locations, giving some traditional Indian snacks on the way. The temple towered above me and I could clearly see its unusual style, which combines contemporary and traditional influence.
After I took my photos, the temple workers invited me for the free lunch in one of the rooms downstairs, where people visiting the place were finishing their worships. I wasn’t sure at first ( like, I can afford to pay for my own food, maybe it’s better to leave it for people who can’t) , but they were so happy to have me there, that I couldn’t say no. I didn’t eat much anyway, being busy looking around and answering the questions of the delighted women sitting next to me :)
During my stay in India, I’ve visited quite a lot of temples, thanks to my friends’ wedding. Every time it was a very interesting experience. I’m sure ISKCON temple would be great to see when people are worshipping inside – so try to go there, just choose your time wisely ;)
![bangalore one day tour places ISKCON temple Bangalore, places to visit in Bangalore in one day](https://worlderingaround.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/India-worldering-around-Bangalore-Karnataka-logo-1-2.jpg)
Bangalore Palace
The Bangalore Palace was for many years closed to tourists, however, not anymore. It was constructed by the Maharajahs of Mysore and modelled on the Windsor Castle in England. I found it quite funny since I’m living in the UK and I wanted to see it myself. The Palace looks nice, however, it was full of people inside and seems to be a bit overpriced for the Indian standards. The fee is Rs 225/450 Indian/Foreigner and Rs 625 to take photos. It’s worth to mention, that apparently you can’t even take photos of the exterior of the Palace without the ticket, which obviously I didn’t know about :D

Vidhana Soudha
Vidhana Soudha is the seat of Karnataka’s Legislative assembly. This massive building is located opposite the red High Court of Karnataka and Cubbon Park. I was just passing by with a rickshaw, so I stopped for a couple of pictures. Hindu temples interest me more though ;)
![bangalore one day tour places Vidhana Soudha Bangalore, Karnataka India](https://worlderingaround.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/India-worldering-around-Bangalore-Karnataka-logo-7-2.jpg)
Other points of interest in Bangalore worth a visit:
Tipu Sultan’s Palace
Tipu Sultan’s Palace was high on my list of places to visit in Bangalore, together with a Bangalore city market. Unfortunately, because of their location, a bit more in the south, I couldn’t reach there on time. The Palace dates back to 1790 as the summer retreat for Tipu Sultan. All the wooden pillars, balconies and arches look very atmospheric and I can just imagine the sultan walking majestically in between the floors. The tickets to the Tiu Sultan’s Palace are also much cheaper than to Bangalore Palace – Rs 10 for Indians and Rs 100 for foreigners.
Bangalore city market Krishnarajendra
Located not far from the Tipu Sultan’s Palace, a vibrant market full of fresh produce, spices and flowers is bustling with colours. I love any type of Indian markets and they definitely are a photographer’s paradise – with all the shapes, colours, flavours and scents. In the centre, there is a beautiful flower market, where girls can buy fresh jasmine flowers to put in their hair. We did that for my Indian friends’ wedding a few days before and the cloud of a sweet smell was surrounding us everywhere we went. So pretty!
![bangalore one day tour places Colourful market in India](https://worlderingaround.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/colourful-market-in-India-worldering-around-1.jpg)
Shiva Temple ( Shiv Mandir )
Another of many temples in Bangalore, this one stands out because of the massive sculpture of Lord Shiva, located in the middle of an artificial pool in front of the building. There’s an entrance of Rs.150, camera fee Rs.25, and even slipper stand fee – Rs.5 .
Bull temple – Dodda Basavana Gudi (the Nandhi Temple)
The Bull Temple is known for the huge bull statue, carved from a single boulder. It’s dedicated to the sacred bull – Hindu god Nandi. It’s the biggest temples to Nandi in the world (well, the bull statue looks massive!).
- St. Mary’s Basilica
If you are interested in seeing the combination of the European and Christian influence with Indian culture, you can experience it in some of the churches in the South India. St.Mary’s Basilica, the oldest church in Bangalore, is one of them.

A map of the best places to visit in Bangalore in a day:
Flying from Bangalore? Rest before travelling!
My days in India were very intense. After an amazing wedding in Tumkur, I had only a few hours to visit Bangalore, then I was flying to Singapore, spending one day there, after that travelling to Bali, Gili islands and East Java in Indonesia.
My flight from the Bangalore Kempegowda International Airport to Singapore was at 1 am. The airport is located 35km from the city centre and it takes 1,5h by bus to get there. I was tired, travelling alone and wanted to recharge my batteries for another busy day in Singapore. I didn’t really want to travel alone in the middle of the night and wanted to make sure that I’m there on time for my flight. Luckily, I found out that I can just take an earlier bus, stay at the airport and rest in the “Day Hotel”.
![bangalore one day tour places Bangalore Kempegowda International Airport, India](https://worlderingaround.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/India-worldering-around-Bangalore-Karnataka-logo-13.jpg)
Day Hotel is a concept, that I haven’t used before, so I was very excited to try it. It works on hour basis. You can rent a room for three, six or more hours and pay depending on the time used.
The first Day Hotel at the Bangalore airport was opened by the Plaza Premium Lounge. You can find it in the domestic departure check-in area, but it’s also accessible to international travellers. However, only passengers who hold onward boarding passes or flight tickets can access it. It works the same for the airport itself.
Disclaimer: I was a guest of Plaza Premium Lounge Day Hotel, but, as always, all the opinions are my own.
![bangalore one day tour places Day Hotel Plaza Premium Lounge at Bangalore Kempegowda International Airport, India](https://worlderingaround.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/India-worldering-around-Bangalore-Karnataka-logo-12.jpg)
There are 20 rooms to choose from, either single, bund double, twin or family. Apart from that, the hotel also has a massage availability, shower service, kitchen with freshly prepared food, access to the snacks ( cookies! ), free tea and coffee, and a working space. They also offer access to the Lounge, which is located after the security check.
I had an opportunity to try the single room at the Plaza Premium Lounge Day Hotel. It was compact but cosy with attached bathroom and a rain shower (my favourite!). There were a work desk, decent speed wi-fi and a TV (that I never use anyway). The bed was very comfortable and I couldn’t wait to catch few hours of sleep. However, before that, I went for a refreshing back massage, that helped me to relax and rest my shoulders after carrying my backpack around Bangalore.
After the refreshing sleep, I quickly went through the security check to find out that my Singapore flight got a 4-hour delay! Oh, my, I love budget Asia airlines… Luckily, I could stay in the Plaza Premium Lounge for that time, enjoying great food – with the last masala dosa before my departure and selection of snacks and drinks.

Useful info:
How to get around bangalore.
Like in any other Indian city, there are rickshaws that can bring you around. Most of them should have meters on and you can easily insist to turn it on if they don’t. Otherwise, you can also propose an amount that you think it’s reasonable for the distance. Beware, that sometimes drivers might try to take you around for a much longer ride. That happens, especially when the meter is on. It’s always worth monitoring the way on your phone (use maps.me for that)
Another option is buses, taxis or metro. Metro is the best for avoiding the terrible Bangalore traffic.
How to get to Bangalore airport Kempegowda International
To get to the airport in Bangalore (or from the airport), there are two options. You can use the regular buses running from the Bus station, that cost Rs 233. They have AC and take around 1-1,5 h. That’s what I took. Or you can also take a taxi. It will be easier to find one at the airport, than in the opposite way. You can either ask your hotel to book one or try to flag it on the street and negotiate the price.

You had covered so many places in one day, incredible. Nice detailed post. Tipu Sultan’s palace is little outside the city and you need half a day to visit it.
Thank you! Yes, Tipu Sultan’s palace was too far for me to get to, that’s why I needed to skip it. But it’s doable in a day with some of the other landmarks and it looks very interesting, so I included it on the list.
Love this post! I have never been there, but this place is now on my bucket list! And I love the henna tattoo! :) xo Laura
http://www.theseoulitelife.com
Thank you! The henna tattoo is from the wedding, and Bangalore is a cool city :)
I love your henna! India is high on my list and I cannot wait to experience the culture. Great pics!
Thanks! India is really amazing country when it come to the culture!
Wow! You covered a lot in one day! I only recently learned about Bangalore after watching the Daughters of Destiny documentary series. Such a colorful place with a rich culture!
It really is a colourful place! I haven’t covered as much as I wanted because of the Bangalore traffic and some delays, but there’s quite a lot to see there
This place looks awesome! Your list is great, so many options, I hope that I can one day visit Bangalore.
Thanks! I hope you’ll manage to visit it too :)
We live in Bangalore now and slowly are working our way through things to do in Bangalore. Not sure when this article was written but the Bangalore palace is an absolute waste of time and money. It’s completely run down, most rooms are locked and most of those that are open have no furniture. I wouldn’t recommend it at all
Thanks for your comment! It is indeed quite pricey for what it is, but for me, it was good even to see it from the outside – I like the reminiscence of it to the English castle and the fact that it’s so far away from England, in India :)
In a busy city like Bangalore, the hectic work schedules might get the best of you but make life monotonous. A small break is always good to rejuvenate and what’s better than a quick weekend getaway. You can plan so many trips around Bangalore. From palaces to forts, natural rock formations to hills, lakes to waterfalls, there’s almost everything around Bangalore, to satisfy the traveler in you.
Hey! As i’am solo traveler I like to explore new places and enjoy the beauty of nature, I really like your blog and got more valuable information, Thank you for providing valuable information, Keep Updating more, Loved it….!

One Day in Bengaluru!
![bangalore one day tour places Photo of Ronak Jain](https://static2.tripoto.com/media/filter/tst/img/311219/TripDocument/1624442336_def_prof.jpg)
Bengaluru (or Bangalore) - The capital of the southern state Karnataka, having had a hell lot of public parks and nice green cover, has been eminent as the “Garden city of India”. However, In recent years the city earned a different nickname, “The Silicon City of India”, but on a cost of becoming a concrete jungle.
I was on a trip to the state but had an extra day before I catch my flight back to pune, So I decided to roam around the city. Although the city has a lot to offer, I would agree if people tend to refrain from traveling due to bad traffic conditions, especially on weekdays. But if you do have one day, I would like to help you get the most of Bengaluru with minimum traffic mishaps.
Here is the map of places you can visit in a day (even a weekday), avoiding traffic.
By the end of the trip, you would probably be thankful to BMRCL for the joyful metro rides.
![bangalore one day tour places Photo of Bengaluru, Karnataka, India by Ronak Jain](https://static2.tripoto.com/media/filter/nl/img/235432/TripDocument/1518165304_capture.png)
As you can see, most places are in vicinity to metro routes, thus avoids traffic. The maximum distance you’ll have to cover by road would be for HAL Museum, i.e. 6 kms from Swami Vivekananda Metro Station.
City Tips :
• Don’t be worried about language barrier here as most people can understand Hindi and English very well.
• Since you’ll be travelling in Metro for most parts, I’ll suggest you buy a smart card instead of token tickets. Apart from the 15% discounted fares, It’ll help you save time as you won’t have to stand in queue, plus you have the flexibility to exit at any station.
• The smart card comes with a 5 year validity, so can also help you in your future visits to the city. Although the recharged amount is valid for a year only.
• Got Baggage? Well, that’s no trouble! If you’ll be travelling by train, you can put your baggage at some store inside Orion mall, which is near to Yeshwantpur Junction.
• In case travelling by flight, you have Central mall at MG Road as the alternate. Of-course, you can use other facilities like Railway cloak room, but that’ll involve time and money.

Although, it's not about just dosa - their Rave wada, Kesari bath and filter coffee ( or rather, kappi ) are amongst the best. Their dining hall offers a very vintage experience, nostalgic to the native people and has hosted giants such as chief ministers.

For a one day trip around Bangalore, Mekedaatu falls are a great option to explore if waterfalls and natural scenes are up your alley. Mekedaatu, or 'goat's leap' in Kannada, is a charming location along Kaveri in the rural parts of Bangalore.
The confluence of Rivers Kaveri and Arkavati takes place at the Sangama area and 3.5 kms downstream from there, the river Kaveri flows through a very deep and narrow ravine of hard granite rock.
The river, which is more than 150 meters wide at the meeting point (at Sangama) flows through the barely 10-meter-wide gorge at Mekedatu. As per local legend, a goat being chased by a tiger managed to cross over the raging river by leaping across the gorge and saved its life in the process – thus giving rise to the name ‘goat’s leap’.
Approaching the spot, one can see the magnificent flow of all the water as it roars down the ravine. However, one must tread cautiously in this region as the rocks are deceptively slippery and the water below is deep.

Top 10 Places For One Day Trip Near Bangalore
August 27, 2023 by Priya Radhakrishnan
Want to make an escape from the grind of routine? Want to break free from the hustle and bustle of city life. Here are the top ten places for a one day trip near Bangalore.
1) Hogenakkal Waterfalls – The cascading wonder
Hogenakkal falls is a waterfall on the river Kaveri. It lies on the border between the Dharmapuri district of Tamil Nadu and Chamrajnagar district of Karnataka. This waterfall is about 130 km from the Garden city and is an ideal place for a one day trip near Bangalore. It is sometimes acknowledged as the Niagara Falls of India. Hogenakkal gets its name from the Kannada meaning ‘Smoky Rocks’ as the river that falls on the rock with force looks like smoke emanating from the rocks. The bathing areas and boat rides make it a sought after tourist attraction. Coracle rides are permitted during the dry season when the gushing water from the falls don’t disturb the passage of coracles. Fish that are freshly caught near the gorge can be deliciously cooked in the stalls on the left shore.
The best time to visit Hogenakkal is soon after monsoon when the falls are in full form. However some people prefer to visit the place during off season when the crowd is scant.

Collin Morikawa Soars Into a Tie for 2nd Place at the Tour Championship
Jeff faraudo | 4 hours ago.
![Collin Morikawa Collin Morikawa](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_4860,h_2733,x_0,y_97/c_fill,w_720,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/ImagnImages/mmsport/cal_sports_report/01j6g4397cm0nmgqzrfj.jpg)
- California Golden Bears
Collin Morikawa didn’t tear up the East Lake Golf Club as he did a year ago when he shot a 9-under 61 in opening round at the Tour Championship.
But the 27-year-old Cal grad was superb, stringing together six consecutive birdies on the back nine to card a 5-under 66 and grab a share of second place at the final leg of the FedEx Cup playoffs in Atlanta on Thursday.
Combined with his four-stroke starting point, based on his ranking in the FedEx Cup points standings, Morikawa is at minus-9 heading into Friday’s second round.
The winner in the season-ending event will take home the whopping sum of $25 million.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who began the day at 10 under after dominating the FedEx Cup standings race, remains in charge after shooting a 6-under 65 that included five birdies over the final seven holes.
He made a bogey on No. 1. But he birdied the third hole then sank a 33-foot putt to do the same on No. 7. Scheffler closed the day with birdies on 17 and 18 and has a seven-stroke lead at minus-16.
![Collin Morikawa visits with an NBA reporter Collin Morikawa visits with an NBA reporter](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_crop,w_1141,h_641,x_117,y_0/c_fill,w_620,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/images/voltaxMediaLibrary/mmsport/cal_sports_report/01j6gg0vtbcy4y095tmh.jpg)
Morikawa, in an interview with NBC, said he understands the gap between Scheffler and the rest of the field.
“I still know where I stand. I like looking at the leaderboards. I want to know where I’m at,” he said. “At the end of the day. I know I can never let up. There’s going to be a lot of guys on a bunched leaderboard — we’re all still kind of packed around here. It’s just going to continue like that as the week goes on.
“Letting go of the gas is a bad thing, especially when you know you’ve got three rounds left in the season and you don’t want to leave anything out there. You just don’t want to look back and say, `Man,I could have done a little bit more.’ “
Xander Schauffele, who began the day at minus-8, is tied with Morikawa for second at minus-9 under after shooting a 70 over the par-71 layout.
Morikawa started slowly, packaging bogeys on Nos. 3 and 7 around a birdie on the sixth hole. But he was impeccable on the back nine, posting a 6-under 30 to vault himself toward the top of the leader board.
Adam Scott, Sam Burns, Wyndham Clark, Keegan Bradley and Hideki Matsuyama are tied for fourth place at minus-8.
A year ago, Morikawa shot 15 under (without the bonus) through 36 holes before closing with rounds of 73 and 72 to finish at minus-11 and in a tie for sixth at the Tour Championship.
Meanwhile, one-time Cal player Byeong Hun An, a 32-year-old South Korean, started the day at minus-2 and shot a bogey-free 69. He had birdies on Nos. 9 and 10 and closed the first day with a 4 under score good for a tie for 20th place out of 30 golfers at the event.
An, who has five top-10 finishes this season, is playing the Tour Championship for the first time.
Defending champion Viktor Hovland is tied with An at minus-4 after a 69 that included seven birdies but also two double-bogeys.

2024 FedEx Cup standings, schedule, leaderboard, purse, prize money for Tour Championship, FedEx Cup Playoffs
Your one-stop shop for everything you need to know throughout the 2024 fedex cup playoffs.
Following an exciting regular season, the PGA Tour hosts a three-tournament postseason, the 2024 FedEx Cup Playoffs, which concludes with a massive Tour Championship where the majority of the grand total $100 million purse is dished out to golfers. In fact, the $25 million top prize is tied for the largest payout on the PGA Tour this season with the Players Championship.
Only 70 golfers advanced to the first round of the playoffs, the FedEx St. Jude Championship, same as last season. With 40 of those players now eliminated following the BMW Championship, the field has thinned in terms of the best golfers in the world able to compete for the league's top prize. There's plenty of star power still remaining, though, with Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele atop the standings and other significant players like Rory McIlroy, Hideki Matsuyama, Collin Morikawa and Wyndham Clark in contention.
For Scheffler, a FedEx Cup win would be his first, but it would also serve as a feather in his cap on the back of a stellar season that already includes six PGA Tour victories and an Olympic gold medal. The same goes for Schauffele, a two-time major championship winner this season.
For everyone involved, there will be a ton of money and plenty of accolades at stake over the next three weeks. Let's take a closer look at what has occurred and what we can still expect from this year's festivities.
2024 FedEx Cup Playoffs schedule
The top 70 in the FedEx Cup standings, via points accumulated throughout the year, played in the St. Jude Championship last week with 50 competing in the BMW Championship prior to the field being trimmed for the final time.
All three events are 72-hole, stroke-play tournaments, though the fields gradually get smaller as the playoffs roll on. The points change, too, as everything is quadrupled. During regular-season events, most winners receive 500 FedEx Cup points for finishing first at tournaments (in a handful of events, 600 points went to first place). The winners of the first two FedEx Cup Playoffs events will instead receive 2,000 points each. The point boost goes for every slot on the leaderboard: 300 for second becomes 1,200 and so on.
Only seven golfers surpassed the 2,000-point total during the entire regular season: Scheffler, Schauffele, McIlroy, Collin Morikawa, Wyndham Clark, Ludvig Åberg and Sahith Theegala. Scheffler opened these playoffs with nearly a 3,500-point lead on third-place McIlroy -- who has since fallen off the pace -- while Schauffele himself was 1,500 points up on the rest of the field.
Winners are disproportionately rewarded and deservedly so given this is the postseason. This provides the opportunity for golfers to go on a hot streak and rocket up the FedEx Cup standings like Hideki Matsuyama and Keegan Bradley did over the first two weeks.
The top 50 in the FedEx Cup standings after the St. Jude Championship move on to the BMW Championship. Then the top 30 after that move on to the Tour Championship.
2024 FedEx Cup standings
Scheffler and Schauffele are having extraordinary seasons. They rank No. 1 and No. 3 on the all-time single season money list at $29.2 million and $18.4 million, respectively, following the second playoff event. Those numbers are officially locked in as money from the FedEx Cup does not count toward a player's official money.
Here's a look at the top 30 in the standings following the BMW Championship.
Matsuyama made a move to third by winning the St. Jude Championship. Bradley was the big mover at the BMW Championship as he barely got into the second playoff event but is now in fourth as the Tour Championship begins.
2024 Tour Championship format
Heading into the Tour Championship inside the top five or top 10 in the FedEx Cup standings is important because of how scoring is dispersed. Whoever is first in the FedEx Cup standings after the BMW Championship starts the Tour Championship at 10 under, and the event is played under normal scoring conditions from there.
With so much money at stake (again, $25 million for first place), those margins become more meaningful than even a normal week. The eventual winners of the four FedEx Cups played under this format have all started in the top seven at the Tour Championship.
- 10 under -- Scottie Scheffler
- 8 under -- Xander Schauffele
- 7 under -- Hideki Matsuyama
- 6 under -- Keegan Bradley
- 5 under -- Ludvig Åberg
- 4 under -- Rory McIlroy, Collin Morikawa, Wyndham Clark, Sam Burns, Patrick Cantlay
- 3 under -- Sungjae Im, Sahith Theegala, Shane Lowry, Adam Scott, Tony Finau
- 2 under -- Ben An, Viktor Hovland, Russell Henley, Akshay Bhatia, Robert MacIntyre
- 1 under -- Billy Horschel, Tommy Fleetwood, Sepp Straka, Matthieu Pavon, Taylor Pendrith
- Even -- Chris Kirk, Tom Hoge, Aaron Rai, Christiaan Bezuidenhout, Justin Thomas

The figures are startling for the finale. The winner of the Tour Championship receives $25 million. Second place is $12.5 million! Here's a look at what the lucrative top 10 will look like at the Tour Championship.
- 1st: $25 million
- 2nd: $12.5 million
- 3rd: $7.5 million
- 4th: $6 million

- 6th: $3.5 million
- 7th: $2.75 million
- 8th: $2.25 million
- 9th: $2 million
- 10th $1.75 million
Last year, Viktor Hovland won the BMW Championship and then took the Tour Championship and FedEx Cup over Schauffele. Both players shot the same 19-under score at East Lake to end the year, but Hovland started the tournament at 8 under while Schauffele only started it at 3 under so Hovland easily won by five and took home the first prize of what was then $18 million.

'Furious': Veterans slam Trump team's altercation at Arlington National Cemetery
WASHINGTON − Some veterans reacted with alarm to reports of an altercation between a member of Donald Trump's entourage and a top official at Arlington National Cemetery on Monday, with a retired Army general calling the incident "repugnant."
Two sources told USA TODAY the incident occurred when a member of Trump's team pushed his way into recording in a part of the cemetery, known as Section 60, where photography is prohibited.
Video from Section 60, where recently buried U.S. service members are interred, later appeared in a Trump campaign Tik Tok in which he criticizes President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, his Democratic rival for the presidency.
"Donald Trump has no right to use our most hallowed ground for his political aims," Fred Wellman, a 22-year Army combat veteran, said Wednesday. "For a lot of us, and I'm not the only one, people are aptly furious."
More: Trump staff in altercation with Arlington Cemetery official
Sign-up for Your Vote: Text with the USA TODAY elections team.
The incident occurred Monday after Trump laid wreaths at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to honor the 13 Americans slain in a suicide bombing at the Kabul airport three years ago during the chaotic U.S. pullout from Afghanistan.
After laying the wreaths, Trump and members of his team accompanied family members of a slain soldier to his graveside in Section 60, where the cemetery's public affairs director tried to stop them from filming.
Nearly 400,000 people are buried at the cemetery, which is maintained by the U.S. Army. The Trump campaign's insistence on using the setting to shoot campaign material is a "new low," said former Army undersecretary and Pennsylvania Rep. Patrick Murphy.
Wellman said Trump's team should apologize for using the grounds to create a political ad instead of attacking the cemetery official who tried to prevent them from breaking a federal regulation governing photography at the site.
Trump's spokesman said the group had permission to film in Section 60.
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said a cemetery official "clearly suffering from a mental health episode, decided to physically block members of President Trump's team."Arlington National Cemetery confirmed that "an incident took place" over photography inside Section 60. No charges have been filed, a police official told USA TODAY.
The campaign's response − attacking the mental health of a respected cemetery official − only prompted further backlash from veterans and veterans' groups.
Maj. Gen. (Ret.) Paul Eaton, a senior adviser at the progressive political action committee VoteVets, called the campaign's actions at the cemetery "nauseating."
Eaton, whose father is buried in Section 60, noted previous reports, repeatedly denied by Trump, that the former president had referred to World War I dead as "suckers" and "losers."
"They see no issue bringing partisan politics there, even if it means getting into physical altercations with cemetery staff.," Eaton said in a statement to USA TODAY. "I truly cannot think of something more repugnant than starting a political fracas on land where Gold Star families mourn. Someone who would do that should never be Commander in Chief.”
Relatives of some of the service members who died in the bombing invited Trump to the wreath-laying ceremony Monday. They released a statement thanking and defending the former president Tuesday.
“We are deeply grateful to the president for taking the time to honor our children and for standing alongside us in our grief,” they wrote.
Wellman said Trump's desire to honor the fallen still had to conform with the law. "There's an actual federal law on the books saying it cannot be used political purposes," he told USA TODAY. "The families put out a statement saying, 'Oh no, we authorized it.' They don't get that right. The families don't get the right to make decisions for the other people buried there."
Trump has long claimed to be an ally to veterans but different comments have landed him in hot water with members of the military community over the years. Earlier this month, he angered veterans when he said the civilian Presidential Medal of Freedom is "much better" than the military Medal of Honor because recipients of the latter are often badly wounded or dead.
