Bangalore Guide: Planning Your Trip

What to Know Before You Go

Soltan Frédéric/Getty Images

Bangalore, the capital of Karnataka, is another Indian city that's undergoing a change back to its traditional name, Bengaluru. It's a contemporary, fast growing and prosperous city that's home to India's IT industry. Many multinational corporations have set up their Indian head offices there. As a result, the city is full of young professionals and has a vibrant air about it, with a flourishing pub culture.

There's been a huge population growth in Bangalore in recent years. About 12.5 million people now live there, making it India's fourth largest city after Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata. Although Bangalore isn't regarded as a must-visit tourist destination in India, many people like the city because of its greenery and interesting buildings. Unfortunately, some its appeal has been lost to growing traffic congestion and garbage disposal issues though.

TripSavvy / Ivey Redding

Find out what to know before you go in this Bangalore travel guide.

Planning Your Trip

Best Time to Visit: Due to its elevation, Bangalore is blessed with relatively pleasant climate. Daytime temperatures remain fairly constant, between 26-29 degrees Celsius (79-84 degrees Fahrenheit), for most of the year. The temperature usually only exceeds 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) during the hot summer months from March to May, when it can reach around 34 degrees Celsius (93 degrees Fahrenheit). Winters in Bangalore are warm and sunny, although the temperature does drop at night to around 15 degrees Celsius (59 degrees Fahrenheit). Winter mornings can also be foggy. September and October experience the most monsoon season rain.
Language: Kannada and English. Hindi is also widely spoken.
Currency: Indian rupee.
Time Zone: UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) +5.5 hours. Bangalore does not have Daylight Saving Time. Read more about India's time zone.
Getting Around: The new Bangalore Metro train, Uber and Ola Cabs have revolutionized transport in the city. Previously, getting around the city could be challenging, as taxis are only available by prior booking and auto rickshaws are notorious for trying to cheat tourists. Read more about transport options in Bangalore .
Travel Tip: Stay in the Central Business District to avoid getting stuck in traffic jams.

Getting There

Bangalore has a brand new international airport that opened in May 2008. However, it's located 40 kilometers (25 miles) from the city center. The travel time to the airport is between one and two hours, depending on traffic. Read more about Bangalore airport .

Bangalore City railway station receives long distance trains from all over India. Here are the best trains from Mumbai to Bangalore .

Neighborhoods in Bangalore

Bangalore's Central Business District is situated around M.G. Road, which extends east from Cubbon Park and the imposing neo-Dravidian-style Vidhana Soudha (seat of the Karnataka government). It includes UB City , the city's biggest luxury commercial development project that's become a hot place to shop, dine, and party.

Koramangala in south Bangalore and Indiranagar in east Bangalore are other hip and stylish neighborhoods renowned for their nightlife, restaurants, and pubs.

Malleswaram, in northwest Bangalore, dates back to the 1890s and is one of the city’s most historic neighborhoods. It's a great place to explore on foot, as it has well-maintained sidewalks (a rarity in India!).

Bangalore's main IT hub is located in Whitefield, about 20 kilometers (18.6 miles) east of the city center. However, this rapidly evolving neighborhood has also become an upmarket residential district with gated communities, spacious villas and luxury apartments.

Things to Do

The city's parks and gardens are a big attraction. Bangalore also has some insightful walking tours for those interested in history and heritage.

Check out these top tourist places to visit in Bangalore and top temples and spiritual places in Bangalore.

If you feel like venturing further afield, there are also some popular tourist places near Bangalore.

Where to Eat and Drink

If you love beer, you'll love visiting the many brew pubs and sampling craft beers. The Biere Club near UB City is Bangalore's first microbrewery. However, arguably, better beer can be found nearby at Arbor Brewing Company (India's first American-style craft brewery) on Brigade Road in Ashok Nagar, and the Bier Library in Koramangala.

Foodies won't be disappointed either. Head to these iconic Indian cuisine restaurants in Bangalore for all budgets.

Where to Stay

Luxury travelers will be pleased to know Bangalore has some fabulous five-star hotels, ranging from colonial to chic, and they're among India's finest. These ones are all located in areas handy for sightseeing. Purple Lotus is a modern boutique hotel in the heart of the action. Electric Cats is a cool place to stay for backpackers and budget travelers.

Culture and Customs

Bangalore was founded in 1537 by a local chieftain, who upon being given the land by a Vijaynagar emperor, built a mud fort and temple there. Over the years, the city has undergone a massive transformation. Its earlier days saw it passed from ruler to ruler, until the British Raj took hold of it and located their south Indian administration there in 1831. The British constructed considerable infrastructure. After India gained independence, Bangalore grew into an important center for education, science, and information technology.

Bangalore is a relatively safe Indian city and organized crime is almost non-existent. The city is also quite liberal in its attitude compared to many Indian cities, resulting in better treatment of women and less staring. However, be careful of pickpockets in tourist areas. You may also be approached by men to pose for selfies, which you can refuse if you don't feel comfortable.

The usual tourist scams also operate in Bangalore, but again, to a lesser extent than in many other Indian cities. Overall, Bangalore is a friendly city to visit.

Being born and brought up in this amazing city, I have immense fondness towards its culture, heritage, and party scenes. This 7 day Bangalore travel itinerary will take you through the flavours and charm this city provides.

Bangalore welcomes visitors with pleasant weather year-round, making it an appealing destination anytime.

Days 1 and 2: Basavanagudi and Gavipuram

On your first two days of Bangalore itinerary, spend time exploring and wandering around the two oldest areas of Bangalore city.

Following your breakfast on any of the day, head to one of the oldest public parks in Bangalore, Lalbagh Botanical Garden. Spread across 240 acres, Lalbagh Botanical Garden was commissioned by Hyder Ali in 1760 and later completed by his son Tipu Sultan. Lalbagh translates to “Red Garden” in English, named after the vibrant Lalbagh Rock that stands majestically in the garden.

Home to a diverse collection of exotic plants, flowers, and trees, Lalbagh is a horticultural paradise and one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. The garden houses a unique glasshouse, inspired by London’s Crystal Palace, which hosts bi-annual flower shows attracting enthusiasts from around the country. Lalbagh’s famous flower clock, designed with seasonal flowerbeds, is another attraction. With plenty of things to do in the park, stroll around and see some of the highlights.

With old buildings and houses, Gavipuram Heritage Walk is perfect to see and explore the oldest area of the city. Starting from Kempambudhi lake and finishing at Hari Hara Gudda, this trail is for history enthusiasts. The walk is around 1.5 kilometres and passes through many landmarks and historical places.

Gavi Gangadhareshwara Temple is a unique and ancient cave temple dedicated to Lord Shiva in the form of Gangadhareshwara. Believed to have been built in the 9th century by Kempe Gowda, the founder of Bangalore, the temple features a large Shiva Linga and intricate sculptures. One of the remarkable aspects of the temple is the phenomenon that occurs during Makar Sankranti when sunlight passes through the horns of the Nandi (bull) idol and illuminates the Shiva Linga in the inner sanctum. This celestial event draws devotees and tourists alike to witness the temple’s unique architecture and natural alignment. Carved out of a monolithic rock, the temple is known for its architectural marvel and historical significance.

Top Restaurants to Try in Bangalore/Bengaluru

On one of the days, start your day by having a delicious and authentic breakfast at Mavalli Tiffin Room (MTR). Founded in 1924, MTR is a renowned vegetarian restaurant located next to Lalbagh Botanical Garden. You must try the Bisibele Bath and filter coffee.

Founded in 1943, Vidhyarthi Bhavan is another popular restaurant serving authentic South Indian food. With more than 3000 people walking in each day, this heritage restaurant is something not to be missed.

Bangalore has an entire street dedicated to street food. With many food stalls serving all kinds of food and dishes, ending the day at Thindi Beedhi is a unique experience to have.

Days 3 and 4: Malleshwaram and Surrounds

Situated in the northern part of Bangalore, Malleshwaram is another area that is one of the oldest areas in the city.

Dating back to the 17 th century, Kadu Malleshwara Temple is an ancient temple in Bangalore. The area of Malleshwaram is named after the deity of the temple, Malleshwara. It was built by Venkoji, brother of Maratha King Shivaji and has a huge religious importance among the residents.

Built in 1882 by Colonel Richard Hieram Sankey, the then chief engineer of Mysore, Sankey Tank was initially created as a reservoir to meet the water needs of Bangalore. The tank is one of the oldest artificial lakes in the city and has historical importance. The tank area has been developed into a picturesque park, offering a serene and green environment amidst the bustling city. You can visit Sankey Tank for leisurely walk, and to enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings.

Malleshwaram is popular for its art. And hence has a Malleshwaram Street Art Trail with 12 murals, depicting and showcasing the childhood memories of Malleshwaram area. Created as part of the project Malleshwaram Hogona by a group of artists Geechugalu, these murals hold a dear place among the locals. The walk is just around 2 kilometres and can easily be done in less than an hour.

Top Places to Eat in Bangalore/Bengaluru

Famous for its Benne Masala Dose, Shri Sagar CTR is a famous food joint in Malleshwaram. The restaurant is favourite among the locals, tourists, and celebrities. As it is usually very crowded, be prepared to wait in a long queue to get in.

With authentic vegetarian food and traditional ambience, Halli Mane in Malleshwaram is a must-visit restaurant. It has plenty of food options, but you must try their Akki and Ragi rottis.

Nandi Hills | Photo by Vishal Anand on Unsplash

On the fifth day of your itinerary, go on a journey to the nearby hill station of Nandi Hills, approximately 60 kilometers from Bangalore. Nandi Hills is a popular destination celebrated for its breathtaking scenic beauty and historical importance. Standing at an elevation of 1,478 metres, the hill provides sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding villages and towns. The hill station derives its name from the ancient Nandi Temple situated atop the hills, and the area has abundant natural landscapes with lush greenery and delightful weather. En route, make sure to make a pitstop at the historic Devanahalli Fort , dating back to the 16th century, adding an enriching historical dimension to your excursion.

Note that the highway has plenty of eateries and you can stop at any of them for local food and dishes.

Day 6: Mahatma Gandhi (MG) Road and Surrounds

On the sixth day of your Bangalore itinerary, explore the MG road and the surrounding streets and areas.

Situated in the Ulsoor locality of Bangalore, Ulsoor Someshwara Temple is an ancient Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva in the name of Someshwara. Believed to date back to the Chola period, the temple has intricate architecture and has major cultural significance in the city. It showcases Dravidian style of architecture with detailed carvings and sculptures depicting mythological stories. The temple’s sanctum sanctorum houses the main deity, Lord Someshwara, while the complex also features other shrines dedicated to various gods and goddesses.

Established in 1870, Cubbon Park covers an area of 300 acres. Offering a refreshing retreat in the heart of the city, Cubbon Park is one of the favourite public parks among the locals. Named after Sir Mark Cubbon, the then Commissioner of Mysuru, the park is adorned with a diverse range of indigenous and exotic plant species, enhancing its botanical charm. Visitors can see the massive trees, vibrant flowerbeds, thematic gardens, and ornamental structures within the park. Cubbon Park also houses important government buildings and cultural institutions, making it a central hub for leisure, recreation, and cultural activities in Bangalore.

Completed in 1956, Vidhana Soudha is the seat of government in Karnataka and serves as the legislative assembly building for the state. Built in Neo-Dravidian and Indo-Saracenic architectural styles, the structure showcases a grand facade, intricate carvings, and a central dome, showcasing an amalgamation of cultural and architectural heritage. The landmark is a symbol of political and administrative prowess.

Located in the heart of Bangalore, Commercial Street is one of the most iconic and bustling shopping destinations in Bangalore. The street is home to both street markets and upscale boutiques, catering to the varied tastes and preferences of shoppers. From traditional Indian wear to trendy Western clothing, Commercial Street has it all.

Unique Restaurants to Try in Bangalore/Bengaluru

If you love tea, then Infinitea is the place for you. You can try various tea flavours at this restaurant enjoying Italian cuisine. Situated on Cunningham Road, this restaurant is a personal favourite.

Started in 1940 as a bakery, Koshy’s on St Mark’s Road is the city’s legendary restaurant. Ensure you try the sandwiches and coffee.

Day 7: Bannerghatta National Park

On your last day, experience one of the most rewarding activities available in the city.

At Bannerghatta National Park, you can volunteer at the Bear Rescue Centre for one or multiple days. With around 60 rescued sloth bears, activities include data entry of health records, preparing bear food, cleaning enclosures, and crafting enrichment items for the bears. This activity is perfect for wildlife enthusiasts and for people who want to make a difference in society. It is important to note that close contact or touching the bears is not permitted during these meaningful volunteer engagements.

This Bangalore itinerary tell you all the places to visit in Bangalore in 1 day. But if you have more time, you can visit some of the other places here or even do a quick day trip to Mysuru.

1. Cubbon Park

Cubbon park - Places to visit in Bangalore in 1 day

Start your one day in Bangalore by taking an early-morning stroll in Cubbon Park . Among the hustle and bustle of the city, you’ll find this expansive area to be relaxed and calming.

It’s great to see a whole bunch of people with varied interests coming together with one common intent - to relax and maintain their fitness.

3. Breakfast at Little Green Cafe

Where to eat in Bangalore in one day - Little green cafe

It’s no doubt that there’s no shortage of awesome cafes in Bangalore. Because I had limited time and I wanted to visit one of the top instagrammble cafes in Bangalore, I walked toward Little Green Cafe. Because this cafe is a 15 minute walk from the Vidhan Soudha , you will save time when you have just one day in Bangalore.

From the minute I walked in, I fell in love with everything from the decor, the lights, the table tops, the cutlery to the extensive breakfast menu. I went for the Namaste Omelette , which was prepared in the Indian style using tomato, chillies and onions. It came with large toasts, a crunchy salad and grilled tomato. Everything on the plate was hearty and delicious. I honestly wish I could’ve come back here for lunch. In any case, there’s always a next time.

4. Bangalore Palace

Best places to visit in Bangalore in one day - Bangalore Palace

Next stop is another iconic sight in Bangalore which can't be skipped from the places to visit in Bangalore in one day - the Bangalore Palace . Now, I felt the camera fees for the palace were a little steep. I bought a ticket for myself and paid a fee for just my DSLR camera, not my phone camera, which brought my total upto almost 1000 rupees.

Coming to the palace itself, the Bangalore Palace grounds were well-kept and gave away a great view of the palace. The tickets purchased can be used to access the grounds, the inside of the palace as well as a Bangalore Palace audio guide . The guides were insightful and gave away details about the palace, it’s residents and guests. Be sure to keep your ticket safe until the end of the visit since the staff does random checks at various points in the palace.

5. Tipu Sultan's Palace

Things to do in Bangalore in 1 day - Tipu Sultan Palace

After lunch, head to Tipu Sultan Palace which used to be the summer residence of Tipu Sultan , the ruler of the Kingdom Mysore during the 1700s. The rooms in the ground floor of the palace contain relics and pictures depicting Tipu Sultan and his reign. While the palace isn’t much and can be covered within 10-15 minutes, it’s just one of those Bangalore attractions which can’t be skipped and so I have included it in my 1-day Bangalore itinerary.

6. Lalbagh Botanical Garden

A visit to Bangalore will be incomplete if you haven’t visited one of the many Bangalore gardens. After all, Bangalore is known as Garden City for good reason. Take a leisurely evening stroll in one of the most popular gardens in Bangalore - Lalbagh garden. Make sure you visit the beautiful glass house which hosts flower shows twice a year. Not just that, there’s also a lake which you just can’t miss!

7. Indiranagar

Now that you’ve covered the most important sights in Bangalore, it’s time to let down your hair and experience the Bangalore nightlife. Indiranagar is undoubtedly the most happening place in Bangalore . It’s flooded with all the biggest stores, some of the best cafes in Bangalore and of course, great pubs. So pick your poison and have a gala in this fantastic area because Indiranagar is the best place to end your one day in Bangalore.

8. Dinner at Truffles

Where to eat in Bangalore in 1 day - Truffles Cafe in Bangalore

No trip to Bangalore will be complete without paying a visit to what is one of the best cafes in Bangalore. Truffles, located in Indiranagar, as mentioned earlier, is famous for its burgers and cold coffees . I had the cheese burger and asked for a brownie points cold coffee to go with it. The coffee came with a whole brownie, pulled apart into pieces and a giant scoop of vanilla ice-cream, topped with some chocolate sauce. That one coffee was way too delicious and way too much for one person. The burger had fantastic flavour and the potato chips were yum. Without a doubt, it’s one of the must visit places in Bangalore.

2 Days Bangalore Itinerary – A Perfect Plan for Sightseeing

Budget Hotels > Travel Blog > Tours & Itineraries > 2 Days Bangalore Itinerary – A Perfect Plan for Sightseeing

Famous as the Garden City and the Silicon Valley of India, Bangalore is a fine blend of history, business, and leisure.

THOMAS COOK REVIEWS

I would like to share the highly professional experience I had at TC Visa services on MG Road. As soon as I sent an e mail enquiry for my visa, I received a response from Sri Kaveriappa detailing all documents required. When I went to hand over the papers, he was quick in his assessment and response. I was informed as soon as my papers were ready and he went the extra mile coming down to hand over my papers when I went to collect them. As a senior citizen, his services and TC visa services is much appreciated.

This is my third holiday with Thomas Cook and the experience has been so beautiful. At the office, raghu has been a big help giving us ideas and suggestions and helping us in every way he can. We look forward to many more holidays with Thomas Cook. Europe has been my best holiday and will cherish the beautiful memories. Thank you for such unforgettable memories.

My daughter had to travel to Cebu in Philippines, the Team in Bangalore IN, supported in issuing Forex card and currency, especially Mr Gopi Krishna was very professional in handling.

Do Dham Yatra
Kashmir Ladakh Trip
Ranthambore Visit

Nice experience....

Tour of Do Dham - Yamunotri & Gangotri for 7 days from 10.05.22 to 16.05.22 Overall arrangements were very good. Our Darshan of both Yamunotri & Gangotri was very nice. Hotels arranged were good. Mr. MANAVENDRA of Tour My India coordinated the entire tour very nicely & he was kind enough to meet us personally at Dehradun.

Jammu and Kashmir along with Leh Ladakh

We are Tour My India's repeat customers. We just love to deal with Manvendra and we find him and his suggestions really genuine and trust worthy. We recently toured the entire of J and K along with Leh Ladakh. It is tailor made for our requirements. Manvendra ensured that the vacation stayed with in our budget. There were absolutely no hiccups and we thoroughly enjoyed the trip all along. I will definitely start planning my next trip with Tour My India guided by Manvendra.

Amazing Jungle Safari Experience at Ranthambore National Park

We used Tour My India to visit Ranthambore National Park. Our contact person was Mr Naveen who was very thorough in answering my questions and providing information before and during our tour. Our driver to and from Jaipur was Mr Vikas. Driving in India can be a little wild, so we appreciated his safe driving. Our train out of Jaipur was later in the evening, so Mr Naveen arranged with Mr Vikas to take us to a restaurant for lunch and then be available to take us to the station. We appreciated this extra care attention to what we needed! Although we did not get to see any tigers, we did enjoy our visit to Ranthambore National Park!

India Climate & Season

India experiences a diverse climate and weather conditions due to its vast size and geographical features. The country is characterized by five main seasons: Spring, Summer, Monsoon, Autumn, and Winter. The Summer season, from April to mid-June, brings scorching temperatures, especially in the northern plains. The Monsoon, from mid-June to September, brings heavy rainfall, crucial for agriculture. Winter, from November to February, varies from mild to severe cold, with snowfall in some regions. Autumn and Spring provide pleasant weather with moderate temperatures. India's climate is influenced by the Himalayas, oceans, and geographical variations, resulting in a rich and varied weather pattern.

India's Summer season spans from April to mid-June, bringing sweltering temperatures across the country, particularly in the northern plains. During this time, the scorching heat can be intense, and people often seek refuge in cooler places or use air conditioning to beat the heat. The temperature ranges between 40–45°C.

The Monsoon season in India is a vital climatic phenomenon that occurs from mid-June to September. It brings much-needed rainfall to the subcontinent, essential for agriculture and water resources. During this season, the country experiences heavy showers and occasional thunderstorms, cooling down the scorching summer heat. The temperature range varies, but generally, it becomes more pleasant compared to the summer season. The Monsoon season plays a crucial role in shaping India's landscape and economy.

The Winter season in India spans from November to February and varies in climate across regions. In the northern parts, it can be quite cold, with temperatures dropping significantly, especially in the Himalayas where snowfall occurs. This period is a popular tourist season in India, attracting visitors to enjoy the pleasant weather and explore the snowy landscapes.

Through various dance forms, music, paintings, and literature, we are better able to learn more about the practices and beliefs of a culture. Art is just one aspect of the culture of a community. Art and culture are essential for the survival of a civilization, but they also function as a means to understand history. Talking about the country of India, it is one of the largest countries in the world, both in terms of area and population. It also has one of the most diverse mixes of cultures, which makes every region of the country stand out. The region of North India has been at the forefront of India's fight for freedom. The various states in the area, with their different topographies, bring in different variations in culture even though they are in close proximity to each other. For example, if we look at the mountainous region of Uttarakhand, Ladakh, Jammu & Kashmir, and Himachal Pradesh, they create and wear traditionally woven beautiful Pankhi and Pashmina Shawls, which keep them warm during the harsh winters. Himachal is also known for its Angora wool Shawls, made from the soft coats of Angora rabbits. On the other hand, the Kota Doria fabric of Rajasthan is more suitable for the state's weather, being a light and airy material perfect for summers.

Rajasthan is also known for its puppetry art or "Kathputli," originally used for entertainment, which later became a medium to depict various socio-cultural issues as well. Rajasthan is also home to another famous fort called the Bandhavgarh Fort, infamous for being one of the haunted places in the country! Known for its display of sound and emotion, the Ragamala Paintings of the state are also highly cherished.

The philosophical practice of Yoga is said to have originated in the Himalayas, with Rishikesh in Uttarakhand widely known as the "Yoga Capital of the World." One of the prominent classical dances of India, Kathak, originated from the traveling storytellers of North India during the era of the Bhakti Movement, and includes epics and stories of Indian mythology.The earliest form of modern chess was also created during the reign of the Gupta Dynasty to help the young princes better understand military strategy. The double-edged sword of Khanda, primarily used by the Rajputs, also seemed to have been in use since the Gupta period. Along with the Khanda, the Chakram is also a weapon native to North India, made by Sikh warriors who also developed the martial art of Gatka. The practice aims to coordinate the mind and body to defend oneself and others.

This mix of arts, cultures & history in this region of the country is also visible in its monuments like the Taj Mahal, Red Fort, Qutub Minar, Agra Fort, Jantar Mantar, Golden Temple, Hawa Mahal, and memorial places such as the India Gate and the Jallianawala Bagh.

The Southern region of India is enriched from an arts, culture, and history perspective.

The region is also famously known for its exquisite Kancheepuram, Ikat, and the white and gold Kasavu Silk sarees, which are admired for their craftsmanship and elegance. The renowned painter Raja Ravi Varma also hails from Southern India, specifically from Kerala. His paintings are still cherished today for their display of Indian storytelling through European art and aesthetics, capturing the essence of mythological tales and cultural scenes. Originating in the 16th century in India, the Deccani style of miniature paintings grew in popularity during the Islamic reign and showcased the Persian style of art in its initial stages before Indian artists took over, resulting in a fascinating fusion of influences.

South India is also known for its various handicrafts, such as the Aranmula Metal Mirror, Coir work, Palm leaf work, Seashell carving, and the fragrant Sandalwood carving.

Being the land of Dravidian architecture, South India boasts numerous historical temples and monuments, such as the iconic Hampi of the Vijayanagar Empire in present-day Karnataka, the revered Tirupati Balaji Temple, the magnificent Ramanathaswamy Rameshwaram Temple, Vithala Temple, Suchindram Temple, and the awe-inspiring Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple. The influence of being a colonial land is also visible in the regions of Puducherry and Andaman and Nicobar Islands, which display their own French and British architectural styles of buildings. Puducherry, having been a French colony for around 158 years, still retains French as one of the spoken languages in the union territory.

Though being part of the same country, the scripts of North and South India vary immensely. Their origins in the Brahmi language caused variations along the way, as the script travelled upward from the South. Different mediums used to write the script are attributed to this difference. For example, the rounded lettering of Southern languages is due to them being written on leaves, whereas the use of cloth and birch bark as mediums allowed for the angular lettering of the North to be written more effectively.

The states of Odisha, Jharkhand, and West Bengal in the eastern part of India are among the top five states with the highest coal reserves in the country.

Also famous is the Chhau dance of West Bengal. It is an open-air dance/performance with its origin in martial arts and tribal traditions. It depicts instances from epics like the Mahabharata and the Ramayana. Talking about martial arts, Odisha has its own martial art known as Paika. Chhau uses movements from this art.

Paika is a very old form of martial arts and can be compared to the Kalaripayattu of Kerala and foreign martial arts like Wushu and Judo. Bihar in East India is known for its Madhubani wall paintings as well. Originated in Mithila, it dates back to the age of the Ramayana. The themes of the paintings vary but revolve around love and fertility and include deities, sun, moon, flora, and fauna, etc. Although it is a style of wall painting, these are now painted on various mediums. Another art form of this region of the country is the Patachitra art form, known for its bold lines and strokes, and painted on a scroll to present a story. The Batik art style of West Bengal is a unique one with its usage of dyes and wax to paint a picture.

North East is home to one of the most beautiful landscapes in the country, with its mighty mountains and quaint valleys sure to charm you.

The state of Manipur is the originator of the Thang Ta martial art form. It is a kind of martial art based on the usage of external weapons along with the internal practice of physical control. It is more than just fighting; it includes physical control and breathing methods. Some forms of Thang Ta are ritualistic in nature and are performed at special rites such as funerals.

The North eastern region is also well-known for its crafts made of bamboo, cane, and reeds. It is also known for weaving some of the finest silks, such as the Eri, Muga, and Pat silk types. Eri silk, made in Assam, is often called "Peace silk" because of the way it is produced. It is extracted from the cocoons of moths who have already emerged, unlike other methods where the cocoons containing the pupae are boiled. In this method, no insects are killed, hence the name "Peace silk." The North East also has some wonderful and historically prominent sites, such as the Urgelling Gompa in Arunachal Pradesh. This monastery is considered important for the followers of Buddhism since it is said to be the birthplace of the 6th Dalai Lama. Manipur's Kangla Fort is also of immense significance to the people of Manipur. Kangla used to be the state's capital, a major political and religious center, and is highly regarded by the Manipuris as a major landmark in their history. Next is the Water Palace or the Neer Mahal. It is a royal palace built by the Manikya Empire from Tripura.

It is situated in the middle of the Rudrasagar Lake and is a beautiful display of Hindu and Islamic architecture. Apart from these, truly marvelous to behold are the living root bridges of Meghalaya. These bridges are made by the indigenous people of the Khasi and Jaintia tribes over centuries, using the roots of trees. They make it possible for them to travel and are helpful during the monsoon season when most rivers overflow. Prominent living root bridges in Meghalaya are the Nongriat and the Cherrapunji root bridges. These bridges are a display of the harmony between nature and people. Another fascinating concept from the Northeast is the Nghah Lou Dawr. At a distance of 65 kilometers from Aizawl, the capital city of Mizoram, there are shops called Nghah Lou Dawr. These shops sell vegetables, fruits, and regional eatables. What makes these shops special is the absence of a shopkeeper! These shops do not have a shopkeeper but have prices listed and expect the customers to pay for whatever they buy honestly. These shops are need-based, as many of the owners are farmers who do not have help to run both the farm and the shop. Despite there being no surveillance, these shops work well due to the trust the farmers have in people.
