Tipu Sultan's Palace & Bangalore Fort

When searching for places to visit around Bangalore, found this one. It was interesting to know there is a fort and palace within the city and I never heard about them. So planned to check it out.


This palace is not a large one, but had its own unique style. Here are a few of the shots of the palace.

The Darbar

The pillars

Bad wiring spoils the aesthetics

Some Idiot's work








That's the palace's whole size

Temple adjoining the palace





Inscriptions on the wall

A closer look at the temple
And here comes the photos of the Banaglore fort. Structures made in stone are always majestic.

When I saw this the first thing that came to my mind was "Ponniyin Selvan"
