As an Anglican Christian, St. Mark's is where I worship when in Bangalore. This stunning heritage church built in 1808-1812, fills completely multiple times each Sunday, and was designed to reflect the architecture of St. Paul's Cathedral in London. If you just visit to see the architecture, the bonus is that this is not a museum, but very much the center of a very active and lively faith community.

Infant Jesus Shrine, Bangalore, India
Reviewed By CedricN276 - Mumbai, India
Had visited this Roman Catholic Church in Bengaluru a long back ago. This church is located in Vivek Nagar area. This church is dedicated to Infant Jesus. It was built in 1971 to commemorate the historic Infant Jesus of Prague. This church is known as Infant Jesus Shrine. It houses a statue of Infant Jesus as well as a museum. Its interior has small glass window panes. Its exterior facade has a small dome and almost resembles the facade of St. Peter's Basilica in Rome. Devotees visit this shrine to seek blessings as well as to get their prayers answered. Adjacent to the old church is the present church building built in 2005. This church is fan shaped and is spacious inside having wooden pews, stained glass window panes and a huge mural depicting the nativity scene of Jesus in Bethlehem. Many devotees attend the English, Tamil & Kannada services here. The annual feast of Infant Jesus is celebrated on January 14 attracting thousands of devotees. It is well illuminated during the night. However, a code of conduct should be maintained. Avoid wearing sleeveless outfits. Had attended an English mass service and admired the facade of the old church as a school going teenager. This church is an ideal place of worship for local devotees as well as people from different faiths. It is a must visit and should not be missed when in Bengaluru.

Visit with family on day outing was wonderful. Serene environment and ambiance of the place took us on a cultural experience of our Heritage. The stories of Puranas, Ramayana, Mahabharata have been brought into limelight on sculptors and paintings. It appeals to all age groups who are interested in our rich cultural values. The sound and light show of Dhashavatara was excellent. It has been explained in simple way and the wooden carvings are so intricately detailed. The vast collection of artifacts and painting is worth seeing. The indoor play area for children is nicely made and the meditation hall at the top is worth the time spent . It was wonderful, learning and spiritual experience. I would like to thank Padmanabha , manager of the Kuteera who took us on the tour of the premises. He took great care of us to explain each of the sculptors and paintings also ensure that we had excellent food and snacks. I thank the family members of the Kuteera who have taken great interest to carry on the passion to preserve the rich heritage of our country. The premises is well maintained and great deal of work and passion for preserving the history to future generation has been done. Overall, Great experience and satisfaction for having visited the place. Hope more people who are interested in Heritage of our country make a visit to this place.
