On our last day in Bangalore, we were treated with a visit to Lalbagh Botanical Gardens. Meaning "The Red Garden", in English, the park is a very popular tourist attraction in Bangalore. It houses the largest collection of tropical plants in India. Many of the plants in the garden came by way of the famous Kew Gardens in London. The garden was originally designed in 1760 the ruler of Mysore, Hyder Ali in 1760 and later finished by his son.
There are some ancient structures on the site, both historical and geological.
