Bangalore is a city of movement. Everybody is in a hurry in the city. In this IT beast, the only mantra is “Do it now! Else the time stops for none”. Apparently we are a part of the rat race. Then arrives the weekend for our rescue and all of a sudden the rat race is given a pause.
Work throughout the week. Chill out during weekend and repeat.
What are you up to this weekend? If nothing is the answer, then we have a plan!
1. Begin your day on a sumptuous note. Think golden masala dosas, crispy vadas, fluffy idlies, honey dipped waffles, sugary pancakes, delicious omelettes and a lot more!
2. Providing the perfect setting for a steaming cup of coffee and relaxation are these charming cafes in Bangalore. While away time with your friends or just grab your favourite book and sink in the chair.
3. Beat the boredom; indulge in something extraordinary and new. With ample of adventure activities to choose from, the residents of Bangalore are spoilt for choice. Feel the euphoria of taking to the skies with micro light flying; go into the sea to witness the underwater creatures with snorkelling or challenge yourself to ascend tall granite hills with rock climbing.
4. Are you the curious types? Why not take advantage of the city you are in? Bangalore, the metropolis dons several hats from being an IT capital, to a music hub and also sports a vibrant shopping scene. Perhaps the nicest thing about the city is its geographical placement which allows an avid traveller to fill up the tank, rev up the engine, and hit the road.
5. Camping is always a wonderful experience but if you plan ahead, you can turn it into a memory that will last forever. You have so many choices in and around Bangalore that will make you understand why locals want to protect nature as much as possible.
6. When in Bangalore, give in to sweet temptations at these dessert places. Dig in to melt-in-your mouth ice-cream on a bed of chocolate cake, rich hazelnut cream pot, delicious hot chocolate fudge, luscious cheesecakes and a lot more.
7. Indulge in retail therapy. Prominent for shopping, buy anything and everything from trendy clothes, statement jewellery, footwear, antiques, sarees to gold. Go for the big brands or bargain and get a great deal.
