Discovering Bengaluru walks you through a past that is still present in Bengaluru. Packed with archival maps and photographs, the book is part history and part walking-guide. It tells the stories of the streets where people lived, where battles were fought, and where little marvels of architecture, culture or nature are still found around almost every corner. Whether you are a visitor to Bengaluru or a resident, this book is essential reading for you to discover and understand the city.
