Vidhana Soudha and Attara Kacheri

The Neo-Dravidian-style Vidhana Soudha is the seat of the state legislature while the red Attara Kacheri houses the High Court. In 2005, an annex called the Vikas Soudha was inaugurated, designed as an exact replica of the Vidhana Soudha. Though these buildings cannot be visited, they can be viewed from the outside.

The more imposing building - Vidhana Soudha, which houses the Legislative Assembly of the state of Karnataka was built post-independence and is a beautiful building on this broad boulevard. Across from it is the Attara Kacheri, the High Court of the state, which is a beautiful long red building and is a much older building. It was built in 1868.

Anjaneya Swamy Temple

Reviewed By 716sachink - Plainview, United States

This temple is one of the best anyone can find anywhere. The main idol is that of Lord Hanuman which has been carved out of a single rock. One gets extremely positive vibes when visiting this temple. Before entering this temple, on the way, one can get beautiful Darshana of Goddess Mahalaxmi’s big idol. Certainly would very highly recommend visiting this temple to anyone.

Vasantha Vallabharaya Temple

Reviewed By munikumarr2015

To reach this temple you can either come from uttara halli bus stand or from kanaka pura road , use Google maps. This place is easily accessible by busses from banashankari bus stand , jaya nagar 4th block and kengeri ( take 375, 378) . Ask for vasantha pura stop . Its a big temple to visit , very old village temple now merged in city . Deity is near match to tirumala , sacred environment is maintained . You have hanuman temple with in main temple . Opposite to main temple you see another hanuman temple and chamundeshwari temple . Next to main temple you have big shiva temple . Once you come down from steps next to hanuman temple you have a big and beautiful sai baba temple excellently maintained by trust on the right side of road. You have enough parking to park 10-20 cars and enough 2 wheeler parking space , easily reachable by autos as well , around 2-3 ons from uttara halli bus stop and 2 km from konanakunte signal on kanaka pura road. Flower and coconut selling vendors available , small general stores selling vill drinks , ice cream is there , office admin is there to book pre sevas . Enough place is there to read any holy books and to do bhajana in groups . Chappal is not there , one better takes care of chappal at entrance steps and charge 2rs. Priests are too good and ensure the crowd goes inside temple in batch of 25 and they complete archana, harathi and put satagopam without fail and give theertham ... And then they allow next batch . Don't forget to do pradhakshina 3 times , you see sri vari padalu when you go around temple. Don't miss saibaba temple and spend some time there. If you like review please click on helpful vote

Should you want to get silence and peace to forget chaos for a while this is the best place near Bangalore The architecture and modern engineering of this temple is just perfect.
