Architectural Trail

On this walk, we trace how rulers, architects, and everyday citizens shaped the city’s skyline over centuries. From the post-independence pride of Vidhana Soudha to the red-bricked colonial elegance of Attara Kacheri, the city’s buildings carry stories of power, politics, and changing identities. Landmarks like St. Mark’s Church, Higginbothams, and Koshy’s still echo the rhythms of an older Bangalore, while Barton Centre stands tall as a symbol of the city’s shift into a modern, commercial era. Whether you're a curious visitor or a born-and-bred Bangalorean, this walk promises fresh perspectives on how the city evolved through its architecture, its institutions, and the people who moved through these spaces. It’s the perfect way to slow down, look up, and rediscover Bangalore’s history written in stone, brick, and glass.
