ec7fa8a17afb4ed09668ca3cba134dcd 3 Indian cities joins the Silicon Valley list.

India, Bangalore, the Indian Silicon Valley Written by Administrator  A megalopolis with an ancient heart, 9th century BC, Bangalore lies on the plateau of Mysore, in central southern India. With its approximately seven million inhabitants, it is the fourth largest city in the country and a technological hub in Asia. New India Flag,    Bangalore ranks second in India for literacy index, first for economic and technological development rate. It is no mystery that the city and its district are considered the "Sylicon Valley" of India. From the nineties, it went from being a relaxed and ideal city for retirees to a symbol of Indian progress. Here in Bangalore in 1905 India's first electric light bulb was sold. And in the 1950s, the government established the headquarters of the aerospace sector here, away from prying eyes. Today, Infosys and Wipro are among the strongest IT companies in the world. Both are based in the so-called "Electronic City". Biocon, on the other hand, although less well known and not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, is now a leader in the whole of Asia in the biopharmaceutical sector. The climate is temperate, thanks to the 1000 meters high. Low seismic risk, even some lake basins, luxuriant vegetation. There are even those who define Bangalore as a "garden city" where on Sundays it is still a tradition to walk, chat and pray. Bangalore is also a point of reference for those involved in Indian spirituality and antiquities. The Dravidian style of Hindu temples stands out amid brick-red skyscrapers. The striking thing, however, are Christian churches, mosques and temples side by side. Peaceful coexistence is one of the characteristics of India. The schools here are excellent and are not the privilege of a few. The study is accessible to many. The reference sport is cricket. Indigenous cinema and in full growth with the Kannada Movie. The Cantonment area, historical part, it has narrow streets lined with stalls. Here you can eat together with the rickshaw drivers in the dhaba, the cafeterias that serve mostly vegetarian dishes, especially rice, for a few rupees. To find the trendy restaurants and big hotels, you have to get away and get to the malls, including the Mantri Square Mall which is still the largest in South Asia. The central streets such as MG Road and Brigade Road are not what we Europeans can consider the temple of shopping, even if you can find places that serve real Italian coffee. Parliament Street is wide and lined with a park. There are also attractions much loved by the Indians such as the fountain dedicated to Prime Minister Indira Gandhi which every evening lights up with plays of light and music for an almost symbolic ticket. Here you can eat together with the rickshaw drivers in the

name means "city of boiled beans" we know above all that it is one of the world leaders in high tech, the so-called Indian Silicon Valley. In addition to the profiles of the skyscrapers, a vision that is already nothing short of unusual compared to the more classic skylines of the Subcontinent, the modern capital of Karnataka offers several tourist attractions and some curiosities. In fact, aside from the beans, today Bangalore is better and preferably known as the "city of gardens" thanks to the large number of parks and green areas that resist concrete despite its constant urban expansion. Local inhabitants say (and it is incredibly true!) That the municipality has historically given up building the city's underground network precisely to avoid uprooting too many trees from the ground. It is no coincidence or an oversight, therefore, if in the heart of Bangalore you can breathe better than in Delhi or Mumbai, you can walk in the shade and there is an immense green lung that acts as a meeting place for the elderly, students, families, tourists and loving couples. Vidhan Soudha With its one hundred and twenty hectares and fascinating banyan trees, the beloved Cubbon Park houses inside a real jewel of the city culture, the State Central Library, a library built in Gothic style recognizable from the outside for its red color switched on. Taking a tour of the dusty shelves, under the curious eyes of its regular customers, is an experience to try for those in search of vintage and authentic atmospheres. Cubbon Park Room overlooking Cubbon Park Lovers of botany, on the other hand, cannot miss the entrance to the botanical gardens of Lalbagh which, commissioned in 1760 in Mughal style by the Indian monarch and military Hyder Ali, stand out for the presence of an immense greenhouse, lush with tropical species and plants rare from every corner of the planet. Less silent (it has long been used as a space for large events, shows and concerts) but no less fascinating, is the garden of the Bengaluru Palace, one of the symbolic buildings of the city erected in 1887 by the Wodeyar dynasty on the model, grandiose, of the English Windsor Castle. The botanical gardens of Lalbagh Beautiful but a bit outside the center (to reach it you need to calculate about 8 km of travel by taxi or auto rickshaw), it is also worth visiting the Iskcon Temple, the imposing temple built in 1997 in neoclassical style by the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. Here, the numerous festivals and religious ceremonies dedicated to Lord Krishna return an explosion of color comparable only to the chromatic richness that one encounters every morning (Sunday is the busiest day) among the stalls of the City Market, the oldest Bangalore market. To reach it, you don't need a road map or a precise address because any inhabitant of the city will be able to tell you where they are and what you can buy in this paradise of spices, ointments, bracelets, musical instruments, flowers, fabrics, fruit, vegetables, books. and even ... technological equipment! Iskcon Temple For true market fans, then, to plumb in search of bargains and souvenirs, there are also the Russell Market (built in 1927 by the British), the Gandhi Bazaar located in the Basavanagudi area and the Johnson Market, famous for its excellent street food and accessible even in the evening. The city's culinary specialty? It's impossible to resist Mangalore Bun, a soft banana-based sweet snack served with coconut chutney and sambar, a South Indian spice and vegetable lentil soup. Not really boiled beans. Getting there The new direct Air Italy connection between Milan and Delhi (from 327 euros return in Economy Class and from 1,489 euros in Business Class) operates three times a week with convenient connections (via Malpensa) from Rome, Naples, Palermo, Catania and Lamezia Terme, Olbia, Cagliari. From Delhi to Bangalore you can take advantage of the frequent internal connections with various Indian companies. Where to sleep In the center, a stone's throw from Cubbon Park and with a magnificent view of the modern city skyline, the JW Marriott Bengaluru hotel (24/1 Vittal Mallya Road, tel. +91 8067189999, deluxe double room with breakfast from 200 euros ) boasts 281 rooms of different categories, 5 restaurants (including the best Italian in town, ALBA), an outdoor swimming pool, spacious business rooms and a wellness center with gym. The service of the Marriott-branded staff is impeccable and the convenience of the structure, as well as its strategic location, make the JW the best solution for a comfortable and stress-free holiday.
