Bangalore... alias ‘Benda Kalooru’ is known as garden city and Hi-tech city. Kempegowda built this city and Tippu Sultan had special love towards this city. It’s famous for the green parks it possesses. It’s also famous as hub of information technology. It has a population of over 75 Lakh and a cosmopolitan culture in most parts of the city.
But that is not over. Bangalore is equally infamous for it pollen output which make cricketers to put their willow outside and take a handkerchief to cover their drizzling nose. Highest number of two-wheelers provides abundant black smoke which might make your lungs to choke. You don’t have metro rail in this city and hence you can hardly see the road transport without a traffic jam. You have local corporate body which prefers to eat the sewage and not to keep city clean. There are many development task force are in place but hardly development happens. Fly-Over is built here in only 24 months!
But life at Bangalore is cool. The temperature in winter can be as good as 20 and summer is pretty hot nowadays which reaches up to 36. Babes in Bangalore make your life colorful and the night life is phenomenal. You have too many pubs and discos in the city limit and lot of clubs and spa’s out side the city limit. The only thing you require to have fun in Bangalore is a thick wallet.
Cost of living in Bangalore varies from place to place. Middle class colonies like Banashankari, JP Nagar, Vijaya nagar, RT nagar, BTM layout offer you all facilities but are over-crowded. Typical colonies like Malleshwarm and Jayanagar have glimpses which show the Bangalore of previous century. Sadashiv nagar, Dollar’s colony, Cox town, Indira nagar and Koramangala are too costly. Places for shopping and night life are Gandhi-bazaar, MG and Brigade roads, Commercial Street and shopping complexes in various extensions. There are few lower middle class colonies like Sri-ramapura, Srinagara, Agrahara, Bytarayanapura etc. where you can have real fun if you enjoy such life.
Preferred style of living now in Bangalore is get a house in the outskirts of city like Yelahanka, Kengeri, HBR layout, Hoodi village and Banneraghatta and enjoy the good light and air.
Bangalore is always bugged by chain snatchers and small scale dacoits. Make sure you wear helmet because the BMTC buses are having a good rapport of killing two-wheeler riders. The good old rowdy groups of Bangalore are not at all making news in the city as old bangaloreans suggest they are all positioned either in Harishchandra ghat (A famous grave yard) or in Vidhana soudha (legislative assembly hall of karnataka).
