About This Tour
Step into Old Bengaluru, where the charm of bygone Bangalore lingers in the narrow lanes, serene temples, and vibrant markets of Malleshwaram. This iconic neighborhood is a window into the city’s past, reflecting a time when life moved at a gentler pace and community was at the heart of it all. Known for its harmonious blend of tradition and modernity, Malleshwaram offers a sensory experience of Bengaluru’s heritage—its food, art, spirituality, and people. On this Unventured walk, you’ll uncover the essence of old-timers’ Bangalore, from its cultural landmarks to its unsung heroes. Relive the days when handwoven silks and fragrant flowers defined commerce, temples were centers of daily life, and the air was filled with the aroma of filter coffee brewing in humble homes. As we walk through the neighborhood, we’ll meet the traders, artisans, and vendors who carry forward these age-old traditions, keeping the spirit of Bengaluru alive.
