About The Place

The Bangalore Palace stands as an epitome of great architecture and beauty, preserving the essence of regal opulence. Built in 1878, the palace remains the central attraction of Bangalore, attracting visitors with its historical charm. Originally, the property was bought by Chamarajendra Wadiyar's British guardians in 1873 from Rev. J. Garrett, the principal of Bangalore Central High School, using his personal funds. This marked the beginning of what would become an iconic landmark in the city.

Spanning an enormous 45,000 square feet, the palace is a splendid blend of Tudor and Scottish Gothic architectural styles. Its imposing wooden structure and the intricate carvings adorning both its interior and exterior reflect the grandeur of royal culture and craftsmanship. The Bangalore Palace is not just a structure, but a living testament to the rich history and heritage of the Wadiyar dynasty, showcasing an unmatched blend of elegance and historical significance.
