16:38:00
Cubbon Park was our first place to visit on our weekend trip to Bangalore, it is situated within the heart of the Bangalore city in the Central Administrative Area and it is named after Sir Mark Cubbon who laid the park. It is just opposite to Chinnaswamy Stadium and there is a road inside the park which connects to Government Museum on the other end and it is known as “Queens Road”.
Cubbon Park consists of natural massive bamboos with flowerbeds with grassy expanse, which is maintained by the state horticulture department, this park also consists of motor able roads with separate walking areas to help morning walkers and joggers. In fact this gigantic park brought the name “Garden City” to Bangalore.
Cubbon Park has multiple gates to enter the park like Vidhan Soudha end, Kasturba Road, Minsk Square, Corporation circle.
There is also a kid’s amusement park at the end of the road on the other side of Cubbon Park which is known as Jawahar Bal Bhawan here children can enjoy their Empress ride along with other games and exciting activities.
There are many government offices surrounded the park like Vidhan Soudha, High Court, Public Library, Vishveshwarya Museum, Art Gallery which are very attractive red colored traditional buildings.
