Exploring Bangalore "Tippu Sultan Summer Palace"

 



I Visited this place on 23rd January 2022.
Yes, I am late and almost 2 months late as I was busy on my YouTube Channel "THE BIKER AKM"

checkout video from my YouTube channel -


Writing same thing which I  have shown in YouTube channel , why ??
Reason for this is, most of the people like to read as well and sometimes it saves data as well and no need of speakers and headphones.

So lets start .

I started at 10:45 AM and reached at 11:35 AM , So total time of trip was 50 minutes and 14 km.
Coming to Tippu Sultan Summer palace its made of wood . 100% wood , there are extensions in that which are not wood but the main palace is made of wood.
Its not a very big one and not even big I will say . It appeared to be a camp office or rest house or guest house having few rooms and balcony both sides for addressing people .

Garden and ground surrounding the palace is big enough and gives you opportunity to click pictures.

Conclusion : 
Overall experience = 7.8/10
(Average of below ratings )

Parking = 8/10 (deducting 2 because it was 100 metres from palace and may be it will be crowded and one may not get parking on other days. i got due to covid restrictions)

Cost = 10/10 

Photography = 6/10 (deducting 4 because this is not a very big palace so you may not get many shots  rather few.)

Ambience and Building : 5/10 (cutting 5 because its one may feel its not palace , rather its a rest house , or small guest house which Tippu Sultan may be using during his visit to Bangalore for a short time. )

Basic Amenities : 10/10
