Bangalore Travel Guide
Until a few years ago, Bangalore was a quiet and green place which was very popular among elderly people as a place to spend their golden years. But in the past years it has transformed into a big, crowded and western oriented city.
It has become the IT capital of India and all the major IT companies have branches here. Ask anyone on what they do for a living and every second person will reply: "You know, something with IT."
Although it has grown quite big, Bangalore is still not as busy or huge as Delhi , Calcutta and Mumbai
