One Day Trips from Bangalore within 50 km
There are many lakes and hills near Bangalore within 50-60 km. Personally, I love going on long drives far away from the city, but if you are taking your kids or older parents with you, you may prefer a relaxed trip. These are also suitable for trekking spots like Savanadurga, Skandgiri and more. The ones I listed below are slightly less crowded than the above.
🚙 🚗 Rent a verified vehicle on Zoomcar for self-drive road-trips near Bangalore 🚔
1. Bannerghatta National Park
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 1 Banerghata - one day trip from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/10268471_10152846634176201_8218481239059400829_n.jpg)
Located within 25kms from Bangalore City, many would argue that Bannerghatta National Park is very much within Bangalore. However, that shouldn't prevent you from spending an entire day in this wonderland rich with a variety of flora and fauna spread across 65000 acres including the Banerghatta Biological Park (currently operating as an independent entity).
Apart from the sanctuary that is home to a significant number of protected lions and tigers, the premises also include a zoo, a butterfly park and a lake for boating. It is a great choice for one day outing in Bangalore with kids.
After an exhilarating experience in the national park you can drive to Thottikallu waterfalls, just 10 km away from here.
Book a tour of Bannerghatta National Park
2. Manchinbele Dam and Big Banyan Park
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 2 Beautiful view of Manchinbele Dam - Best Bangalore Daytrip within 50 km](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/manchinbele-2Bdam.jpg)
Distance: 45 km | Things to do: Picnic, Water Sports | Duration: 4-5 hours
This is the easiest weekend getaway from Bangalore, a favorite among corporate junkies yet surprisingly devoid of the crowd on the weekends. Originally constructed for irrigation purpose, the place is now famous for water-sports and corporate team-building activities. If you are not into this type of thing you can simply park your car away from the entrance, walk on the hills and enjoy the beauty of nature. The view of the blue water blending with the clear blue sky is spectacularly serene. It is also a great picnic spot for family and friends.
Read about our day trip to Manchinbele
Bonus! On your way back you can head to Dodda Alada Mara, the 400-year-old Big Banyan Tree near Bangalore. Covering 3 acres area, this is one of the largest trees of its kind and is home to a beautiful park. Another place you can add to this one-day trip is a beautiful lake Nelligudde kere .
3. Ramnagaram Night Trek or a day trip from Bangalore
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 3 Ramnagara sunrise](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/IMG_20150607_054002807_HDR-scaled-e1651548798272.jpg)
Distance: 55 km | Things to do: Trekking, Camping| Duration: 12 hours
This is the place where the famous dacoit Gabbar Singh used to live with his gang.
Yes, Ramnagaram is the shooting location of the legendary Indian movie “Sholay” but this is not its only claim to fame. Amidst the dense forests stand the granite hills that you can never miss being awestruck at. A trek to the peak will take roughly 2-3hours for rookies. This is also one of the few places that are still open for night trek and camping near Bangalore.
You can easily start the early morning at 5 am and reaching a peak at night and waking up to the golden sunrise is an experience you do not want to miss.

![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 5 Mandargiri day trip from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Mandargiri-day-trip-640x480.jpg)
Distance: 67 km | Attractions: Temple, Panoramic views| Duration: 4-6 hours
Just 67km away from Bangalore, accessible through a 1-1.5 hour drive through the amazing Tumkur road lies one of the really off-beat places for travel lovers in Bangalore.
Dotted with 1000-year old Jain temples this round hillock also offers a spectacular sunset for nature enthusiasts. The large rocks on the hill and the peacock feather design of the Jain temple provide perfect “Instagramic” backdrop for your photos. You can also visit for a small trekking opportunity to keep yourself fit.
6. One day trip from Bangalore to Antargange Caves and Hoskote
Distance: 69 km | Attractions: Trek,Cave exploration| Duration: 6-8 hours
Antargange in Kolar is one of the most popular attractions for adventure-loving youngsters. At an altitude of 1712 meters, it offers spectacular views and thrilling experience of cave exploration.
The 3 km trek will take 2hours uphill, after which you can visit the temple Kashi Vishweshwara. If you are not too tired on your way back, you can complete this one-day trip from Bangalore with a tour of the historic fort area of Hoskote.
7. A trip to Avalabetta and Gudibande Fort- Two short treks in a day
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 6 one day trip to avabetta from bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/avalabetta-day-trip-min.jpg)
Distance: 90 km | Attractions: History, Nature| Duration: 9-10 hours
On a regular weekend, a drive to Avalabetta will take 2-2.5 hours. After that, a 1.5 km trek will lead you to the cap-shaped rock-cliff, an attractive point for photography. Unless you visit in the dry summer months you will get to see a pond at the hill-top which adds to the beauty. Note that the path to the hilltop is blocked now for many months due to some accidents.
After descending from the peak you can either drive back home (why the hell? ) or drive just 24km ahead to reach the Gudibande Fort. This is a massive 17th-century fort with well-preserved walls, which can be reached by a flight of steps. Personally, I (and all 3 of my travel buddies in the trip) liked the Gudibande fort way more in all respects – no crowd, interesting architecture, cave temples, and panoramic view.

One Day trips from Bangalore within 150 km
Let me tell you there are too many options for a one-day trip from Bangalore within 150 km, too many to list in one single post. Below are some of the most scenic trails from Bangalore.
9. One Day Trip from Bangalore to Madhugiri
Distance: 110 km | Attractions: History, Nature| Duration: 9-10 hours
Madhugiri is the second largest monolith in Asia, a feat that deserves attention in itself. However, perched atop the hill is a historic fort of the Vijayanagara empire. The Madhugiri Fort has some of the earliest water tanks of India which were built to harvest rainwater.
The trek to Madhugiri fort is of moderate difficulty but the grandeur of the fort and the views from the hill-top will make it worthwhile.
Check out the list of best forts in India chosen by travel experts.
10. One Day Trip to Sangam, Mekedatu and Chunchi Falls
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 7 trip for 1 day from bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/chuchi.jpg)
Distance: 115 km | Things to do: Scenic drive, Nature| Duration: 8-11 hours
A scenic 2-hour drive away from Bangalore lies the beautiful natural spot, the confluence of the two most important rivers of Karnataka – Arkavathi and Cauvery. On your way, you will drive through winding uphill road lined with seasonal trees on both sides which look surreal in summer when they dry-up. It was a hot summer afternoon when we visited the place, but it was still throbbing with travelers.
Drive just 4km from here to reach Mekadatu to see the stunning natural designs formed on granite rocks formed by the river Cauvery cutting through it for thousand years. On your way back you can also trek to the Chunchi Falls. A trip covering all these three locations will take 10 hours.
11. Day Trip to Jayamangali Blackbuck Conservation Reserve
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 8 trip for 1 day from bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/blackbucks.jpg)
Distance: 117 km | Things to do: Vineyards, Wildlife| Duration: 7-8 hours
Jayamangali blackcuck conservation reserve is located in the Tumkur district of Karnataka, at the border of andhra Pradesh. Besides blackcucks it is famous for beautiful vineyards. The arid grasslands provide a great location for photography. These endangered species is a dark colored antelopes indigenous to India. It is also the state animal of Andhra Pradesh.
12. Day trip from Bangalore to Hogenekkal Falls and Forests
Hogenekkal falls is wide plunge formed by the Kaveri river in Dharmapuri district of Tamil Nadu. It is a charming perennial waterfall and one of the most popular places near Bangalore for one-day trips despite its distance.
You can also take a coracle or boat ride in the river here. Unlike Shivanasamudra, Hogenekkal still allows tourists to reach till the bottom of the waterfall. Since it is a perennial fall, it is the best time to visit is between October – March. The water gets extremely muddy in monsoon.
Distance: 124 km | Things to do: Scenic drive, Nature| Duration: 8-11 hours
13. One Day Trip to Kaigal Falls via Chhota Ladakh
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 9 Tree-covered trekking trail of Kaigal Falls - a great place for one-day trip.](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/kaigal-trek.jpg)
We trekked to Kaigal Falls on our way to Horsley Hills. That's not a bad idea, but I've a better plan for a one0day trip combining Kaigal Falls with Chhota Ladakh.
Dodda Ayur earns its name “Chhota Ladakh” from the rustic beauty of a barren moon-like terrain at a high altitude. A charming lake was formed in the hills through a natural process of rainwater that collected in the stone mining quarry.
It's a picture-perfect picnic spot just 56km away from Bangalore is one of the best places to visit near Hoskote.
However, you can drive further from here to the Kaigal Falls, located about 40 KMs from Chhota Ladak. It involves a leisurely hike through the forests leading to a seasonal waterfall.
This is the perfect itinerary for a scenic one-day trip near Hoskote.
14. A day trip from Bangalore to Lepakshi
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 10 One Day Trip from Bangalore - Lepakshi](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Lepakshi-1.jpg)
Distance: 130 km| Attractions: Temple, Architecture | Duration: 6-8 hours
Lepakshi is a historical town in Andhra Pradesh which is home to the iconic Veerabhadra Temple. The temple is an architectural masterpiece which has so many mysteries surrounding it. Did you hear of a temple with a hanging pillar? This is that temple.
Apart from this, you can find the giant Nandi Statue (a monolithic bull structure) and the Jatayu theme park. These 2 attractions apart from the great temple are enough to keep you engaged for 4-5 hours at Lepakshi, if not more.
Book a deeply engaging private Lepakshi day trip from Bangalore .
15. One Day trip from Bangalore to Shivasamudra
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 11 trip for 1 day from bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/shivanasamudram-1.jpg)
Distance: 135 km | Attractions: Nature| Duration: 8 hours
Drive about 30 km more from Talakadu and you will reach this picturesque village Shivanasamudra which is home to the Barachukki and Gaganachukki falls. These perennial waterfalls have been consistently ranked among the 100 most beautiful waterfalls in the world. Best time for a trip to Shivanasamudra is in monsoon. Unlike Hogenekkal, the water is not muddy here in the rains.
Book a trip to Shivanasamudra and Somnathpura Temple
A trip to Shivasamudra via Manchinbele Lake is one of the best routes for long drives around Bangalore . The one day trip from Bangalore to Shivanasamudra can also be clubbed with Talakadu i nstead.
16. Shravanabelegola – Tallest monolithic statue in the world
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 12 Shravanabelehola](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/shravanabelegola.jpg)
Distance: 143 km | Attractions: Heritage, Active Pilgrimage| Duration: 10 hours
Shravanabelegola is most famous for the Gomateshwara Bahubali temple which has a 58 ft statue of Mahaveer Jain – the tallest monolithic statue in the world. The temple is accessible via a flight of 620 steps.
The temple dates back to 983 A.D. but is in such a great condition that it is hard to believe its age. Apart from the architectural wonders, the temple also offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the town.
There are many other old temples which you can explore here, all of which date back to 800-1000 years. For a history-seeker this is a great destination for one day trip near Bangalore.
17. A One Day trip from Bangalore to Horsley Hills
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 13 One Day Trip from Bangalore - Horsley Hills Governor's Bunglow](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Horsley-Hills-1.jpg)
Often dubbed as the Ooty of Andhra Pradesh, Horsley is a beautiful hill station only 140 km from Bangalore. Vibrant blossoms greet you on your way leading to the Horsley Hills. There are two viewpoints which offer a great panorama.
One Day trip within 200km from Bangalore
For longer day trips, it's best to hire a car for full day or drive yourself. Using public transportation may not be the best option as the buses are frequently delayed. Here are my favorite places to visit on a day-trip from Bangalore within 200km, where you can easily drive to.
18. Yelagiri – Hills, lakes and adventure sports
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 14 One Day trip form Bangalore to Yelagiri](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Yelagiri.jpg)
Distance : 159km | Trekking, Nature,Adventure| Duration: 10 hours
With temperate climate and greenery all year round, this hill station in Tamil Nadu is one of the best day trips from Bangalore for adventure lovers. The drive uphill needs a little bit of expertise but the views from 3465 ft are breathtaking.
On our 11-hour trip, we just trekked to Swamimalai Hill-top, had lunch and returned. If you leave early you can visit the Punganoor Lake, Nature Park and telescope observatory. There are a number of resorts and decent hotels to stay overnight if you want to spend more time.
19. Somnathapura and Talakadu – One Day trip from Bangalore
![Picture-perfect Talakadu Unearthed temples and natural beauty of Talakadu - perfect temple day trip](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/One-2Bday-2Btrip-2Bfrom-2BBangalore-2B2.jpg)
Distance : 160km | Trekking, Nature, Adventure| Duration: 10 hours
Somnathapura and Talakadu are sites with a large number of ancient temples, but most importantly they are architectural hotspots near Bangalore which you would enjoy visiting irrespective of your faith.
In simple words, you can call this mini-Hampi which is accessible in one day trip.
Your first stop will be Keshava Temple in Somnathpura, an icon of the skills of Hoysala craftsmen. 24km from Somnathpur lies the mythical village of Talakadu, once known as the Benaras of the South.
Talakadu was a Hindu Pilgrimage site which went under dunes of sand few hundred years ago. More than architecture, the natural beauty and folklores are the highlights of Talakadu.
You can end your trip with a magical coracle ride in the serene waters of the Cauvery. The Talakadu Cauvery basin is a great place for a picnic near Bangalore. This is a great one-day outing in Bangalore.
Book a day tour of Talakadu and Somnathpur
If you love history and architecture and visiting Bangalore for the first time, I strongly recommend these guided day-tours for you.
- Bangalore historic excursion
- Day Trip to Shivanasamudra waterfalls and Somnathpura temples
- Day trip to Belur, Hallebeedu, and Shravanabelagola
When in Horsley you can just soak yourself in the natural beauty of the place and once done, you can head to the Horsley Zoo which is home to some amazing wildlife.
Read about our trip to Horsley Hills from Bangalore .
20. Mysore Wildlife – Ranganathittu and Mysore Zoo
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 15 Mysore Zoo - one of the oldest and largest zoos in India](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/zoo.jpg)
Distance: 165 km | Attractions: Wildlife Watching | Duration: 12 hours
Mysore is also the city famous for amazing natural beauty and wildlife. If you have kids, my bet is they will definitely enjoy this Mysore day trip more than the one above. Mysore Zoo is easily one of the best and largest zoo facilities in India. There are many cafes and parks in the zoo, and this is itself could be a great day trip from Bangalore.
However, I love to see the wild in the open, so my favorite is Ranganathittu wildlife sanctuary. Remember to carry your binoculars and a high-zoom camera to feast your eyes with the sight of colorful birds and capture them through your lens.
You can book a guided excursion to Mysore from Bangalore as well.
21. One day trip from Bangalore to BR Hills
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 16 Dence forest in the BR Hills - 1 Day outing from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/BR-Hills-1.jpg)
Distance: 178km | Attractions: Nature,Sightseeing | Duration: 12 hours
The BR hills are located at the border of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, in the Western Ghats. It is named after the Biligiriranga temple built atop the hill. It is an ecological hotspot with a large variety of wild beasts including sloth bear, antelopes, peafowls and even tigers.
These are not easy to catch a glimpse of though, as they are scattered all over the region. You can, however, see a lot of monkeys and birds in the picturesque wildlife sanctuary. The view from the hill is also a sight to behold.
It is on the same route as Shivanasamudra so you may try to club it with the same.
22. Mysore Iconic – Mysore Palace & Brindavan Gardens
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 17 Mysore Palace](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/mysore-palace-1.jpg)
Distance: 181 km | Things to do: Scenic drive, sightseeing, picnic| Duration: 15 hours
The cultural capital of Karnataka and the cleanest city of South India is not a place that you can explore in less than two days. The two iconic landmarks of Mysore are the Mysore Palace, the home to the Royal family of Mysore and the Vrindavan Gardens, one of Bollywood’s favorite Desi location.
In a round-trip spanning 12 hours, you can easily cover both these places even and even more. I highly recommend visiting the amazing sand sculpture museum in the city. Check out the best Mysore itinerary for different types of vacation.
Mysore is a beautiful city which needs more than a day to explore. Book this 2-day guided tour to experience the best of Mysore in 2 days.
Doable One Day trip over 200km from Bangalore
If you love long drives as much as we do, you may want to push your boundaries and drive over 400 km in a day. The excellent roads of national and state highways of Karnataka make such trips possible. Although I'd always recommend staying somewhere overnight, I'd say that it is doable in a day if you don't have another day to spare.
23. Shettihalli Church – Drowning monument
![Best One Day Trips from Bangalore - 48 Amazing Places (2024) 18 Shettihalli Church - One day Trips from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/shettihalli.jpg)
Distance: 223 km | Attractions: Ruins,Nature| Duration: 9-10 hours
The Shettihalli Church is the ruins of a French Gothic church built in 1860, but the ruins have their own appeal. The Shettihalli Rosemary church is famously called the drowning church as it drowns under the Hemavathi river in monsoon and emerges back in the summer!
In 1960 the villages near the church were deserted due to the construction of the Gorur dam, and the church was left abandoned. The dilapidated roofless church has its own charm and has become a sought after location for photo-shoots, which make you wonder if the church in its former self-was as attractive as the site of ruins.
A peaceful area tucked away from the main city of Hassan, is an ideal place to relax, take a boat ride and watch the sunset. While the distance is more, the road is a breeze and the scenic trails make the drive worthwhile.
24. Temple Trails of Belur and Halebidu
Distance : 227 km | Attractions: Fort, Nature | Duration: 15 hours
The journey Belur and Halebidu takes you to the 12th century, during the peak of the Hoysala Empire. Start early in the morning to avoid traffic and reach the ancient capital located 220 KMs from Bangalore.
Your first stop is the Chennakesava Temple in Belur, a marvel that took over a hundred years to build.
The temple complex is a treasure trove of intricate carvings depicting animals, dancers, and episodes from epics like the Ramayana and Mahabharata.
What sets these sculptures apart is that they're signed off by their creators, often with boastful epithets.
After quick lunch, head to Halebeedu, just 16 KMs from Belur. Here, you'll spend a couple of hours exploring two magnificent temples dedicated to Hoysalesvara and Shantalesvara.
25. One day trip from Bangalore to Gandikota
Distance : 285 km | Attractions: Fort, Nature | Duration: 15 hours
The last two in this list is for crazy road-trippers who can drive more than 600 km in a day. I recommend these for a one-day trip is due to the dearth of accommodation options nearby.
Gandikota is a village named after a 14th-century fort . The Gandikota fort, in turn, got its name from the giant gorge formed by the Pennar river cutting through the Erramala Hills . Its structure and beauty earn it the name Grand Canyon of India . It's one of the best places near Bangalore for a one day trip.
If you are into overnight camping you can spend a night at the campsite.
26. A one day trip from Bangalore to Belum Caves
![Billion year old Belum caves Belum Caves - the longest one-day trip from Bangalore](https://www.backpacknxplore.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/one-2Bday-2Btrip.jpg)
Distance: 300km| Attractions: Ruins, Nature| Duration: 15 hours
Belum caves is a natural cave which is estimated to be millions of years old. There were many vessels and sculptures found inside the caves which date back to the ancient period.
It is the longest cave in the Indian sub-continent that is open to the public and is home to the mysterious Patalganga, a perennial water-flow inside the caves. You can club this with the Yaganti cave temples 44 km away or Gandikota which is slightly closer to Bangalore.
You can also explore Gandikota, Belum caves and other nearby attractions in Andhra Pradesh on a long weekend trip .
Well, these are my favorites among all the amazing places to visit near Bangalore on excursions. Before you leave, I want to share with you the best travel sites for bookings trips in India and seeking some travel inspirations as well.

Wow, I didn't know that southern India had such interesting landscapes. I already had plans to visit the northern part via motorbike, but now it makes me wonder if I should take a longer holiday and expand my trip 😀
Oh wow! I didn’t realize how much nature there is so close to the city!
Great post- I love posts that list day trips from a location. It feels like you can expand a visit to your original location and see so much more!!
Bangalore is one of the places that I wanna visit, and I liked your post a lot. Thank you I will take it as a guide
It’s funny. Your first sentence describes exactly what I used to think about Bangalore before reading your post! Thanks for educating me.
Wow That is crazy. I had no idea of these places. I would love to travel to India someday and discover all the great things the country has to offer.
Wow! I fell in love with your pictures of the waterfalls! Can't believe you can fit all these places in one day!
I will definitely use your post as a guide for when I get to Bangalore. These places looks amazing! Thanks for sharing 🙂
I have been to Bangalore once, with not with the right people, couldn't enjoy a lot! 🙁 I must return
So many places here I've never heard of. Definitely lots for me to discover in India, thanks for sharing some great ideas.
I am always shipping things to Bangalore for work. There is definitely a lot to see. Gandikota Is simply beautiful, would love to go there!
What a wonderful experience, Shettihalli Church was my favorite. A lot of fantastic places to see and explore. I would love to go soon!
Im in love with Shivanasamudra. those waterfalls look so beautiful! Ive heard about all the great places to visit but thanks to your pictures i can finally tell how stunning it is.
What a great list of places to visit from Bangalore. I really like to drowning church – that’s amazing how it floods and then is back to dry. And there are so many waterfalls! It’s a shame that some tourists have forced the closing of some of the close observation decks. The waterfalls are probably less muddy when it isn’t rainy season.
Thanks for sharing wonderful day trips from Bangalore. I would love to see 400 year old nearby Manchinbele Dam and the whole place looks beautiful. Good to know that famous Sholay was shot in Ramnagaram as I always thought it was shot in M.P.. All places look wonderful and worth visiting.
I am so glad your list doesn't feature Nandi Hills. Haha. Anyway, having stayed in bangalore for more than 5 years now, I have kind of ran out of destinations to visit in a day.
Loved this post so much! A great comprehensive review of some amazing places. I travelled to India last year but unfortunately didn't get to visit Bangalore. Definitely will be looking into returning 😀
I love the Falls and Lepakshi already. That statue and the footprint are just so unique and I'd love to know the story behind them. Lemme go Google…
Woah! Incredible list, Sinjana! Great work here. Gandikota, Hampi, and Lepakshi are on top of my to-do list but don't know when. Hopefully, soon.
Never thought Bangalore as diverse as this! Crazy how you have canyons, falls, amazing landscapes and architecture at the same place! Chunchi alone is enough to make me go there. I'm crazy about waterfalls lol
I haven't yet been to India, but every time I discover new things about it from travel blogs, it's yet another confirmation, another reason to move it up the bucket list 🙂
What an amazing list! I visited some of these places when I went to Bangalore and was surprised to find such amazing landscapes in South India.
I really want to travel through India more and more. Bangalore looks beautiful and so much culture as well. It's definitely on my bucketlist.
These are amazing day trip suggestions from Bengaluru. There is so much to be explored. Would love to rely on this post for weekend getaways and share with my friends in the city.
What a crazy collection of hikes and sites from Bangalore! I had no idea that there was so much so close. I think visiting Bannerghatta National Park and seeing Thottikallu falls would be the first up on my list!
I didn’t know that South India had such beautiful mountainesque landscapes the first time I visited. I went to Mysore and Gandikota and was absolutely awed. However, now I see that there are a few more places that I missed. Hopefully, I can make up for it during my next visit. Thank you for this amazing list, Sinjana!
Wow. Never knew there was so juicy to see around Bangalore. I have visited the city several times and always try and get away from the concrete jungle Done Mysore and other places. Would live to visit the waterfalls at chinchi and the Lepsshki. Thanks for sharing these offbeat places a short drive away.
his is a really handy post, as I have family working in Bangalore so could potentially do these trips during a visit. Am particularly drawn to the first place in your list, the Machinbele Dam and also the Big Banyan Tree on way back. All the rest of ideas also look great, such as Madhugiri and Lepakshi. Some of the others, perhaps we could do as part of a road trip, rather than there and back in a single day.
I had no idea there’s so much nature and hiking around Bangalore! i would honestly want to take almost all of these trips, which may require me to move to Bangalore for a year! The Hogenekkal Falls look incredible and like nothing I’ve seen before. If I could only pick one trip, that’s probably what I’d choose. Awesome list!
This is a fabulous list of “cliche” or typical tourist destination and those off the beaten path. I would love to visit Lepakshi and the Shettihalli Church. Both of these places look so massive and beautiful! I’m stunned just by your photos. Definitely will visit these destinations when exploring Bangalore.
Wow being the 4th largest tech hub, it’s pretty incredible how much nature there is here in Bangalore. I would love to visit the 400-year old Banyan Tree at Dodda Alada Mara. And wow the Belum Caves being millions years old sounds incredible – it’s incredible that it’s one of the longest that’s open to the public. I totally would love to visit this amazing work of nature.
I never imagined Bangalore with a good nature spots! Wow! I’m very amazed! It makes me want to go back again to India soon. Great sceneries! I want to put it in my travel list.
Chunchi Falls looks beautiful. And, the 400 year old Banyan Tree. As others have noted, I didn’t think of Bangalore for nature. And, I love caves so Belum is interesting.
This is a great post full of information. I could certainly base myself in Bangalore and visit some of the places your mentioned – especially the Forts which I love visiting and temples. I loved the way you broke it down with how far and how long. Really helps in the planning.
Avalabetta and Gudibande Fort and Belum Caves are my favorites. I have stayed in Bengaluru for like 8 years and been to many of these places, though at many instances, I have spent more than 1 day there. However, this is totally apt for the people who work in Bengaluru offices. They will have great options to visit so many new places over the weekends. I am sure this list is going to be really helpful to them.
Dude, there are so many fun day trips to take near Bangalore! And the variety of different attractions is staggering. I would love to visit Shivanasamudra. I can’t believe those falls! I haven’t been here before and would love to discover all of these places!
You have been on so many amazing day trips in your new(ish) home – it’s inspiring me to explore my state of New York and all of the nature around it even more 🙂 Your pictures are also AMAZING, especially of the waterfalls. It sort of reminded me a bit of my trip to Iceland! Having never been to India before I think I mainly associated it with more urban areas, but these hikes (and particularly the “Grand Canyon”) were so beautiful to see!
Thanks Lauren. There are just innumerable places to get close to nature near Bangalore. India is full of surprises 🙂
Mandagiri looks like my favourite of these. Then again Mysore Palace looks pretty damn cool too. In fact, I want to do them all!
I love lists like this one. There are so many things to do even on a day trip close to almost every city. I have never been to Bangalore, but when I go, this list will be my go-to-guide for my day trips.
This is such a thorough and helpful guide for any one visiting India. I never knew there are so many beautiful places near to Bangalore. This itinerary will be very useful to me when I visit India. Thank you for such a great post.
Thanks for sharing. It was useful and informative.
Shivanasamudra looks so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for reading
Now I have new places to add to my bucket list… thank you!
Thanks Kristin!

This Bangalore itinerary tell you all the places to visit in Bangalore in 1 day. But if you have more time, you can visit some of the other places here or even do a quick day trip to Mysuru.
1. Cubbon Park
![1-day-bangalore-itinerary-places-to-visit-cubbon-park Cubbon park - Places to visit in Bangalore in 1 day](https://cdf9d1.n3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/1-day-bangalore-itinerary-places-to-visit-cubbon-park.jpg)
Start your one day in Bangalore by taking an early-morning stroll in Cubbon Park . Among the hustle and bustle of the city, you’ll find this expansive area to be relaxed and calming. Here you’ll find people running, doing yoga, walking their dogs and even cycling. It’s great to see a whole bunch of people with varied interests coming together with one common intent - to relax and maintain their fitness. Granted that my image of Cubbon park doesn't look that appealing but trust me, this Bangalore park is better than my shoddy image of it.
Here is a complete guide to Cubbon Park - one of the best places to visit in Bangalore in 1 day.
2. Vidhan Soudha
![places-to-visit-bangalore-1-day-vidhan-soudha-bangalore-itinerary Vidhan Soudha - Things to do in Bangalore in 1 day - Bangalore itinerary](https://cdf9d1.n3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/places-to-visit-bangalore-1-day-vidhan-soudha-bangalore-itinerary.jpg)
Vidhan Soudha, an iconic landmark of Bangalore is just a short walking distance from Cubbon Park and one of the best places to visit in Bangalore in 1 day. Not only is it the state legislature of Karnataka, it is also the largest one in India. Vidhan Soudha in Karnataka is the epitome of grandeur. As a matter of fact, it costs 20 million rupees to maintain it’s splendour annually. Just opposite to this marvel lies the High Court of Karnataka, another beautiful building.

3. Breakfast at Little Green Cafe
![where-to-eat-bangalore-cafe-little-green Where to eat in Bangalore in one day - Little green cafe](https://cdf9d1.n3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/where-to-eat-bangalore-cafe-little-green.jpg)
It’s no doubt that there’s no shortage of awesome cafes in Bangalore. Because I had limited time and I wanted to visit one of the top instagrammble cafes in Bangalore, I walked toward Little Green Cafe. Because this cafe is a 15 minute walk from the Vidhan Soudha , you will save time when you have just one day in Bangalore.
From the minute I walked in, I fell in love with everything from the decor, the lights, the table tops, the cutlery to the extensive breakfast menu. I went for the Namaste Omelette , which was prepared in the Indian style using tomato, chillies and onions. It came with large toasts, a crunchy salad and grilled tomato. Everything on the plate was hearty and delicious. I honestly wish I could’ve come back here for lunch. In any case, there’s always a next time.
4. Bangalore Palace
![places-to-visit-bangalore-1-day-bangalore-palace Best places to visit in Bangalore in one day - Bangalore Palace](https://cdf9d1.n3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/places-to-visit-bangalore-1-day-bangalore-palace.jpg)
Next stop is another iconic sight in Bangalore which can't be skipped from the places to visit in Bangalore in one day - the Bangalore Palace . Now, I felt the camera fees for the palace were a little steep. I bought a ticket for myself and paid a fee for just my DSLR camera, not my phone camera, which brought my total upto almost 1000 rupees.
Coming to the palace itself, the Bangalore Palace grounds were well-kept and gave away a great view of the palace. The tickets purchased can be used to access the grounds, the inside of the palace as well as a Bangalore Palace audio guide . The guides were insightful and gave away details about the palace, it’s residents and guests. Be sure to keep your ticket safe until the end of the visit since the staff does random checks at various points in the palace.
5. Tipu Sultan's Palace
![things-to-do-bangalore-itinerary-1-day-tipu-sultan-palace Things to do in Bangalore in 1 day - Tipu Sultan Palace](https://cdf9d1.n3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/things-to-do-bangalore-itinerary-1-day-tipu-sultan-palace.jpg)
After lunch, head to Tipu Sultan Palace which used to be the summer residence of Tipu Sultan , the ruler of the Kingdom Mysore during the 1700s. The rooms in the ground floor of the palace contain relics and pictures depicting Tipu Sultan and his reign. While the palace isn’t much and can be covered within 10-15 minutes, it’s just one of those Bangalore attractions which can’t be skipped and so I have included it in my 1-day Bangalore itinerary.

6. Lalbagh Botanical Garden
A visit to Bangalore will be incomplete if you haven’t visited one of the many Bangalore gardens. After all, Bangalore is known as Garden City for good reason. Take a leisurely evening stroll in one of the most popular gardens in Bangalore - Lalbagh garden. Make sure you visit the beautiful glass house which hosts flower shows twice a year. Not just that, there’s also a lake which you just can’t miss!
7. Indiranagar
Now that you’ve covered the most important sights in Bangalore, it’s time to let down your hair and experience the Bangalore nightlife. Indiranagar is undoubtedly the most happening place in Bangalore . It’s flooded with all the biggest stores, some of the best cafes in Bangalore and of course, great pubs. So pick your poison and have a gala in this fantastic area because Indiranagar is the best place to end your one day in Bangalore.

No trip to Bangalore will be complete without paying a visit to what is one of the best cafes in Bangalore. Truffles, located in Indiranagar, as mentioned earlier, is famous for its burgers and cold coffees . I had the cheese burger and asked for a brownie points cold coffee to go with it. The coffee came with a whole brownie, pulled apart into pieces and a giant scoop of vanilla ice-cream, topped with some chocolate sauce. That one coffee was way too delicious and way too much for one person. The burger had fantastic flavour and the potato chips were yum. Without a doubt, it’s one of the must visit places in Bangalore.

Day Trips from Bangalore
Bangalore, the IT hub of India, has a number of young, dynamic people living and working here. So it is only natural that they would need to take a break and look for day trips or weekend getaways from Bangalore .
Even if you are just visiting Bangalore and happen to have more than just one day in Bangalore, I suggest that you take a getaway to one of the many beautiful places near Bangalore.
![south-goa-beach-cabo-de-rama-beach South Goa beaches guide - Cabo de rama beach South Goa](https://cdf9d1.n3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/south-goa-beach-cabo-de-rama-beach-1.jpg)
Goa is the ultimate beach destination in India and the best day trip or weekend getaway from Bangalore. If you have more than one day in Bangalore, then you've got to visit Goa! You can rent a car and drive the 560 km distance or find an overnight sleeper bus.
Once in Goa, you can party in North Goa or if you're looking for serenity and something offbeat then consider visiting the many beautiful beaches in South Goa . Whatever you choose to do, you will never run out of fun things to do in Goa. In any case, because I lived in Goa for 14 years, take a look at my insider's travel guide to Goa to help plan your perfect Goa trip.

Apart from a lake, many churches and food joints, there are many things to do in Kodaikanal in 2 days , making it the perfect day trip from Bangalore.

Anywone living in or visiting India, especiall the Southern half of India, is well aware of this place. Gokarna is a small temple and beach town on the western coast of India, very close to Goa.
Apart from Hindu temples, there are many beaches in Gokarna. In fact, a Gokarna 5 beach trek is one of the best things to do here. And just like Kodaikanal, Gokarna is also an overnight journey from Bangalore.

I followed this itinerary exactly – except Indiranagar. I had a nice day. If I was doing again I’d skip the Sultans place. Long drive (only cause traffic is ridiculous) – not really worth it! Enjoyed the Palace and botanical gardens and dinner at Truffles. Thanks!

Bangalore Itinerary: how to spend one day in Bangalore
This post is a Bangalore itinerary about how to spend one day in Bangalore. Bangalore, also known as Bengaluru, is the capital of the Indian state of Karnatak a and one of the largest cities in South India.
Bangalore has a rich history that dates back to the 16th century when it was a small village. During the British colonial rule in India, Bangalore became an important center for the British army and saw significant development. After India gained independence, Bangalore transformed into a major center for science, technology, and aerospace industries.
Nowadays, Bangalore is a very modern and progressive city famous for its information technology and known as the Silicon valley of India.
Why visit Bangalore
Bangalore might lack any big tourist attractions, but it is a pleasant city to spend some time in. First of all, Bangalore is less chaotic and hectic as some other big Indian cities like Delhi or Jaipur . Second of all, Bangalore is a green city full of lush gardens and beautiful parks. At last, Bangalore’s higher elevation means a moderate climate.
Bangalore is also a very dynamic city with a young population. As a result, the city has lots of trendy cafes, beer pubs and a great choice of restaurants. As Bangalore attracts people from all over India, you can find every regional cuisine there is.
With a few historic sights and lots of culture and food, Bangalore is definitely worth a visit. In this post I will explain the best way to spend one day in Bangalore.
![trip for 1 day from bangalore A Bangalore itinerary on how to spend one day in Bangalore](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7191.jpg?x38807)
A one day in Bangalore itinerary
Spending one day in Bangalore is enough to see the city’s attractions and include some of it’s best culinary experiences. Bangalore is a great city for those that love food. In this one day Bangalore itinerary I will focus mostly on South Indian cuisine, but you should know that in Bangalore you can get anything you want.
If there is one reason to spend more than one day in Bangalore, it is the food. Ever wanted to try Gujarati or Bengal cuisine? There will be a restaurant in Bangalore for sure. And if you are tired of Indian food and want something else. Bangalore has that too.
I personally love the tastes of South India that are so different from the north. Bangalore is a great city to explore the variety that exists in South Indian cuisine and therefore I will share the best places to try some of my favourite South Indian dishes in Bangalore.
Breakfast at Airlines Hotel
There are so many great breakfast places in Bangalore that it will be hard to say what is the best. My personal favourite is a South Indian breakfast of Idli Vada with sambar . Airlines Hotel is conveniently located near Cubbon Park where you can start your one day Bangalore itinerary
Cubbon Park
The best place to start your one day Bangalore itinerary is the greenery of Cubbon Park. This park is 150 years old and is home to hundreds of plants and flower species. It is very popular among Bangaloreans and you can join the locals on their early morning walk.
Cubbon park is a gentle introduction to Bangalore and is centrally located near some of the most popular shopping streets like MG road and Brigade road. The park has a colonial history and is surrounded by other british era historic buildings such as the vidhana soudha, the high court and the library.
Nearest Metro station : Cubbon Park or Ambedkar Vidhana Soudha
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Cubbon Park in Bangalore, India](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7188.jpg?x38807)
If you leave Cubbon park at the southern entrance near Kempegowda tower and the Hudson Memorial church it is a 30 minute walk to the Raja market. The biggest reason to visit this bustling part of Bangalore is to see the famous flower market.
KR Market is a multi floor building where almost every vendor at the ground floor sells flower garlands. It is a fragrant and colorful sight that is best seen from above. Personally, I always love the hustle and bustle from the markets in India and this was one of my favourite places in Bangalore.
I decided to walk from Cubbon Park to the KR market. You can also opt to take the metro or an uber. If you plan on taking an uber you should take into account that the Raja market area is a labyrinth of narrow and crowded streets that are hard to navigate for vehicles.
Walk : 30 minutes from Cubbon Park
Nearest Metro station : Chickpet
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Flower market in Bangalore](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7230.jpg?x38807)
Jamia Masjid
South of the KR market along busy NR road and SJP road is the muslim area of Bangalore. A great place to explore on foot. As a non vegetarian it is in the muslim areas that I often find the best meat curries and kebabs and Bangalore also did not dissapoint in that regard.
At first sight the area around NR road is not very scenic, but look closely and you will find some interesting muslim shrines and several mosques. At last, the jamia masjid is hard to miss. This is the largest mosque in Bangalore and can accommodate up to 10,000 devotees.
The mosque is quite impressive. It was designed by an architect from Hyderabad and is made from white marble from Rajasthan. There are special prayers on the death anniversary of Tipu Sultan when thousands of people gather at the mosque
Walk : 10 minutes from KR flower market
Bangalore Fort
Bangalore Fort is one of the oldest structures in Bangalore. It’s history goes back to Kempe gowda. A chieftain from the Vijayanagara empire, the same empire famous for the magnificent ruins of its capital Hampi .
Kempe Gowda is the founder of Bangalore and was the first to build fortifications. His vision was to develop a new city that would equal Hampi. The original Bangalore fort was from mud with a trench and nine entrance gates.
In 1758 Hyder Ali, the ruler of the kingdom of Mysore , captured Bangalore. He decided to renovate the fort and strengthen it with stone. His son Tipu Sultan further extended the fort and even built a summer palace.
He could only enjoy his palace in Bangalore for a short while as the British army took hold of Bangalore fort in 1791. Now all that remains is the Delhi gate and some parts of the thick fortress walls.
Walk : 10 minutes from Jamia Masjid or flower market
Nearest Metro station : Krishna rajendra market
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Bangalore Fort](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7261.jpg?x38807)
Tipu Sultan’s Summer palace
A 7 minute walk down the road from the Bangalore Fort is Tipu’s Sultan summer palace. This short walk gives you an idea how large the Bangalore Fort was as the palace was once within its walls.
Tipu Sultan’s summer palace was built completely from teak wood, just like his summer palace in Srirangapatna. Tipu Sultan was known as the tiger of Mysore and fought several wars against the British army. He was eventually killed by the British in his fort in Srirangapatna in 1799.
The small, but beautifully decorated palace also has a small museum about Tipu Sultan and his achievements.
Walk : 7 minutes from Bangalore Fort
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Tipu Sultan palace in Bangalore](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7274.jpg?x38807)
Lunch at Vidyarthi Bhavan
After a long morning of walking and sightseeing it’s time for lunch. The South Indian restaurant of Vidhyarti Bhavan is on the way between Tipu Sultan’s palace and Lalbagh botanical garden. It’s the perfect lunch stop, not only because of its location, but most of all because of its excellent butter masala dosas.
Dosas are south indian rice pancakes and they are one of my favourite lunch dishes when in South India. Vidhyarti Bhavan has served them for more than 75 years now. Many say they are the best you can get in Bangalore. The benne dosas are indeed very delicious and a must try.
Walk : 10 minutes from National College Metro station, 30 minutes from Tipu Sultan’s palace (best to take the metro from Krishna rajendra market to national college metro and then walk, or take an uber).
Nearest Metro : National college (green line)
Lalbagh Botanical garden
After a full stomach you can choose to either walk 20 minutes to Lalbagh garden or take an uber. Lalbagh garden is even older than Cubbon park. It was Hyder Ali that planned the botanical garden, but like the renovation of the Bangalore Fort it was Tipu Sultan that finished it.
Tipu Sultan wanted it to be like the Mughal gardens from Persia that also adorned many of the Mughal architecture in places like Delhi and Agra . He imported plants and trees from different countries.
When the British Army took over Bangalore they also took over the management of the garden. They planted more trees and added a bandstand as well as a glass house.
Nowadays the garden is a very popular place for Bangaloreans and tourists. Although there are still bonsai, rose and lotus gardens, other parts feel more like a huge park with walkways and vendors selling cold drinks and snacks. Nevertheless it is a very nice place to hang out in Bangalore
Walk : 30 minutes from Vidhyarti bhavan (consider uber)
Nearest Metro : Lalbagh (green line)
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Lalbagh garden in Bangalore](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7195.jpg?x38807)
Bangalore Palace
Bangalore palace. I am still not sure whether I liked it or not. I thought it was a weird structure that seemed out of place even in a city as eclectic as Bangalore.
The massive palace grounds were bought by the Mysore Royal Family that wanted to have a place to stay for the Maharaja prince that was going to Bangalore for his education.
In 4 years they built a somewhat pompous palace. Apparently the building was inspired by Windsor castle in England which explains the towers. Part of the palace is open to visitors.
Inside you can visit an open courtyard on the ground floor. A decorated staircase with paintings leads to the yellow Durbar hall. The interior sometimes reminded me a bit of Mysore Palace because of the use of bright colours and pillars.
The palace is still in the hands of the Mysore royal family. To earn money the palace also has an attraction park for kinds. Besides a well mainted small garden, most of the public grounds are neglected and only occasionally used for public events.
Nearest Metro : there is not really a nearby metro station within walking distance, best to take an uber.
Dinner at Mavalli tiffin room
Mavalli tiffin room (MTR) is Bangalore’s oldest and most famous restaurant. It is so popular that it is recommended to make a reservation in advance. There are several branches in Bangalore and they even went abroad to Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Dubai.
The restaurant at Lalbagh is where it all started in 1924. The menu is mostly South Indian dishes, but with some local specialities and inventions. Apparently Rava idli was a MTR invention during World War 2 when rice was in short supply.
MTR is the best place to try food from Karnataka. One of their specialties is Bisibele bath. A rice dish with lentils, vegetables, nuts and spices. You can’t really go wrong with a South Indian thali either.
Nearest Metro : there are several branches throughout Bangalore. Close to Bangalore Palace is Namma MTR
![trip for 1 day from bangalore South indian thali](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7285.jpg?x38807)
More than one day in Bangalore
What if you have more than one day in Bangalore? Although with this Bangalore itinerary you have seen most of what the city has to offer there are also a number of day trips you can take. One of the most popular day trips is to the scenic Nandi hills or the ancient temple complex in Lepakshi.
Bangalore itself also has a number of museums and temples that are not included in this itinerary. It would take years to visit all of Bangalore’s temples. Some noteworthy temples are the new and impressively large ISKCON temple, the Nandi temple with a large statue of the nandi the bull and the Kote Venkateshwara temple, the oldest temple in the city.
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Kote Venkateshwara temple](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7276.jpg?x38807)
One day in Bangalore travel tips
Where to stay in bangalore.
Where to stay in Bangalore depends a lot on how long you will stay in the city. If you are staying only one day in Bangalore I would choose a central location. Bangalore is a big city and with the congested traffic it is very easy to underestimate the time it takes to get around.
Locul central is close to Cubbon Park and is a clean and professional hostel if you don’t mind staying in a dormitory. Locul uptown from the same owner is near Bangalore palace and has both dormitories as well as private rooms.
Because of my internship I had to stay for extended times in Bangalore. A great budget option that was not too far from the place I worked was the Little blue window hostel at BTM lay-out. A safe neighbourhood with lots of restaurants and trendy cafes.
Other safe neighbourhoods with great facilities for long term stays are Koramangala and Indiranagar.
![trip for 1 day from bangalore A Bangalore itinerary on how to spend one day in Bangalore](https://www.backpackadventures.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/IMG_7260.jpg?x38807)
How to get around in Bangalore
The thing I remember most from Bangalore is the traffic. When I was in Bangalore I travelled every day from my hostel to the office. On the map it only looked like a small distance, but it almost took me an hour by bus. It probably would have taken the same amount of time if I had simply walked.
If you have only one day in Bangalore you should take this into account. Getting around Bangalore isn’t always easy and might take longer than you expect. I also have good news though. The best tourist attractions are not that far from each other.
This one day Bangalore itinerary can almost all be done on foot. Otherwise it is just a short uber ride to the next place. Only Bangalore palace is a bit out of the way and would probably involve the typical Bangalore traffic experience.
The Bangalore metro, or Namma metro started in 2011 and is a great way to dodge the crazy Bangalore traffic. Most central locations and tourist sights are within walking distance of a metro station. So far there is a green line and a purple line.
My recommendation is to travel by metro if you can. It is a safe and quick way to get from A to B.
Uber and Ola
Uber is a good way to get around in Bangalore for short distances. India has its own similar business called Ola cabs that is even more popular. The good thing about both Ola and Uber is that it is cheaper than a tuk tuk and you do not need to negotiate the price. Both offer a pool option in which you share your ride with others that makes it even more affordable.
Ola also has a tuk tuk option that is one of the best and most affordable ways to travel for shorter distances. I never had to wait long for an Ola or Uber to come and most of the time when I ordered the pool option I had no other passengers.
I travelled a lot by bus in Bangalore, but it honestly took me a while to figure things out. If you are staying only one day in Bangalore I can’t really recommend taking a bus. Because of the traffic they are slow and the timings on google maps aren’t always right. I sometimes had to wait a long time for the right bus to arrive.
How to get to Bangalore
Bangalore is a city that has great connections by trains and buses from all over India. Convenient night trains run to Hampi, Chennai and Goa , but you can go as far as Mumbai and Delhi if you want to.
You can check the train time tables and book your tickets online directly through the Indian railways (IRCTC). Unfortunately this is not always a straightforward process. For a small extra fee you can use 12goAsia or Makemytrip .
When to visit Bangalore
The best time to visit Bangalore is from September till March when the climate is pleasant with cool and dry conditions. During these months, temperatures average between 15°C and 25°C, making it ideal for outdoor activities and sightseeing.
In April and May it starts to get very hot in Bangalore. June is the start of the monsoon season when the city experiences heavy rainfall, providing a welcome relief from the hot and humid conditions.
Sustainable Travel in Bangalore
Bangalore is a very green and clean city compared to other Indian cities. Tourism is growing though and has both positive and negative impacts. Traveling sustainably in Bangalore, involves conscious choices that minimize your environmental impact and support the local community.
Support the local community: You can support the community by purchasing goods and services from local vendors, artisans, markets and restaurants. It is better to try South Indian cuisine that uses local ingredients rather than imported foreign foods. South Indian food is very vegetarian friendly and it is easy to follow a vegan diet.
Stay in small scale sustainable hotels : It is also better to stay in locally-owned guesthouses or homestays to support the local economy directly. These accommodations often have a more positive impact on the environment compared to large hotels.
Where possible, I can recommend staying in a homestay for an authentic cultural experience. You might want to bring a small book with pictures of your family to break the ice.
You can also try to look for guesthouses or homestays that prioritizes sustainable practices. That said, environmental awareness is still low. It’s up to you to use water sparsely, turn off lights, air conditioning, and heating when leaving your accommodation.
Use public transport : Bangalore has a well-developed public transportation system. Opt for public transport, whenever possible, instead of private cars to reduce carbon emissions.
Respect the culture : Besides environmental concerns it is also important to respect the culture. Bangalore is the capital of Karnataka with a Hindu majority. Therefore, learn about the local customs and traditions beforehand and be mindful of your behavior.
People will appreciate it, if you dress modestly, especially at religious sites. Learning a few basic phrases in Kannada, can go a long way in building meaningful connections and to learn more about the local culture. Not everybody is happy to have their picture taken. When in doubt, ask permission.

One Day in Bengaluru!
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Photo of Ronak Jain](https://static2.tripoto.com/media/filter/tst/img/311219/TripDocument/1624442336_def_prof.jpg)
Bengaluru (or Bangalore) - The capital of the southern state Karnataka, having had a hell lot of public parks and nice green cover, has been eminent as the “Garden city of India”. However, In recent years the city earned a different nickname, “The Silicon City of India”, but on a cost of becoming a concrete jungle.
I was on a trip to the state but had an extra day before I catch my flight back to pune, So I decided to roam around the city. Although the city has a lot to offer, I would agree if people tend to refrain from traveling due to bad traffic conditions, especially on weekdays. But if you do have one day, I would like to help you get the most of Bengaluru with minimum traffic mishaps.
Here is the map of places you can visit in a day (even a weekday), avoiding traffic.
By the end of the trip, you would probably be thankful to BMRCL for the joyful metro rides.
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Photo of Bengaluru, Karnataka, India by Ronak Jain](https://static2.tripoto.com/media/filter/nl/img/235432/TripDocument/1518165304_capture.png)
As you can see, most places are in vicinity to metro routes, thus avoids traffic. The maximum distance you’ll have to cover by road would be for HAL Museum, i.e. 6 kms from Swami Vivekananda Metro Station.
City Tips :
• Don’t be worried about language barrier here as most people can understand Hindi and English very well.
• Since you’ll be travelling in Metro for most parts, I’ll suggest you buy a smart card instead of token tickets. Apart from the 15% discounted fares, It’ll help you save time as you won’t have to stand in queue, plus you have the flexibility to exit at any station.
• The smart card comes with a 5 year validity, so can also help you in your future visits to the city. Although the recharged amount is valid for a year only.
• Got Baggage? Well, that’s no trouble! If you’ll be travelling by train, you can put your baggage at some store inside Orion mall, which is near to Yeshwantpur Junction.
• In case travelling by flight, you have Central mall at MG Road as the alternate. Of-course, you can use other facilities like Railway cloak room, but that’ll involve time and money.

Located amidst Bangalore's oldest and busiest market, the restaurant has become the place of city’s food heritage. Their limited menu offers very authentic south Indian breakfast meals, most popular being the very crispy benne dosa, which the waiters very skillfully carry in dozens. Although, it's not about just dosa - their Rave wada, Kesari bath and filter coffee ( or rather, kappi ) are amongst the best. Their dining hall offers a very vintage experience, nostalgic to the native people and has hosted giants such as chief ministers. Although you’ll have to wait in a long queue, share the table and be quick in eating, the experience is worth the visit.

American teen, 15, loses leg in shark attack on belize trip.
A Colorado teenager lost her leg in a shark attack while vacationing in Belize this week, her family said.
Annabelle Carlson, 15, was on a diving trip to the Lighthouse Reef near Half Moon Caye in the Gulf of Honduras with her family and a tour group when the attack occurred Tuesday morning, according to the Aspen Daily News .
Carlson, of Aspen, had taken off her diving equipment and hopped into the water for a post-excursion swim when she was bitten, the outlet said.
![trip for 1 day from bangalore Annabelle Carlson, 15, was attacked by a shark during a trip to Belize.](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/attacked-shark-bravely-fought-predator-87442595.jpg?w=1024)
“Annabelle was able to fight off the attack as best as she could but was critically injured in the fight,” a GoFundMe page set up for the teen’s family stated.
“Annabelle 1, shark 0.”
The tour operators with Belize Dive Pro rescued Carlson from the water and immediately brought her to a Coast Guard base, where officials helped stabilize her, Adm. Elton Bennett of the Belize Coast Guard told ABC.
Photos from the incident showed a team of people carrying the teen to safety once they got back on land.
![trip for 1 day from bangalore The tour guides were able to pull the teen from the water and raced her to safety on land.](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/attacked-shark-bravely-fought-predator-87442591.jpg?w=1024)
“It was her right leg that received a bite from the shark. So, she lost her right leg,” Bennett explained.
After she was stabilized at a hospital in Belize City, Carlson was airlifted to a trauma center in the US, the GoFundMe said.
The shark attack was the first in recent memory in Belize, Channel 5 Belize said .
“We’re very saddened about it, but I want to highlight that this is something that is very rare and I don’t think this is a time to say, well, you know, we don’t want to go swimming again or something,” Belize’s Minister of the Blue Economy told the outlet.
![trip for 1 day from bangalore The teen being carried by rescuers. Her leg is blurred out.](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/attacked-shark-bravely-fought-predator-87442597.jpg?w=1024)
Carlson, who is a rising sophomore at Aspen High School, “will have a very long road of recovery ahead of her,” the family’s fundraiser page said.
As of Friday afternoon, the GoFundMe had raised over $98,800 of its $250,000 goal.
Another US teen, Lulu Gribbin, also lost her leg in a terrifying shark attack in the waters off Florida in June.
Gribbin, 15, was left looking “lifeless” when her hand and part of her leg were bitten off during a mother-daughter beach trip, her mom recalled.
“I saw her wounds on her leg and started to scream,” the distraught parent wrote on the family’s caringbridge.org site.
“Once she was settled her first words to us were ‘I made it.’ And boy she did,” she added of the moment the teen could finally breathe on her own.

Japan's Kishida cancels Asia trip after scientists urge preparations for a possible 'megaquake'
Japan earthquake.
- Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below
TOKYO (AP) — Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida canceled a planned trip to Central Asia on Friday to lead the government’s response after scientists urged people to prepare for a possible “megaquake” off the country’s southern coast.
The Japan Meteorological Agency issued its first ever “megaquake advisory” on Thursday warning of a possible future major earthquake triggered by the underwater Nankai Trough, after a magnitude 7.1 quake shook just off the eastern coast of Kyushu island earlier in the day. The trough, which runs along Japan’s Pacific coast, was the source of past devastating earthquakes.
Seismologists at the agency held an emergency meeting after Thursday’s quake to analyze whether it had affected the nearby trough and reassessed the risk of a major quake. They urged people to observe high caution levels for about a week.
Thursday’s quake injured 16 people, most of them slightly, and caused no major damage. Tsunami advisories were issued for several areas but lifted hours later.
Kishida announced that he had canceled his planned Aug. 9-12 trip to Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Mongolia as a result of the advisory.
“I have decided to stay in the country at least for about a week to make sure that government measures and communication are fully in place,” Kishida said.
The Fire and Disaster Management Agency instructed 707 municipalities designated as at risk from a Nankai Trough quake to review their disaster response measures and evacuation plans.
The meteorological agency’s first “megaquake advisory” sparked public unease and prompted local government offices, rail operators and other agencies to begin introducing precautionary measures, affecting holiday travelers during the summer “Obon” holiday week.
Some municipalities even closed parks or cancelled events for the coming week, although officials and experts stressed that there was no need to shut down any normal activity. They said the advisory was aimed only at raising awareness of a increased probability over the long term, and that it was not for any specific timeframe or location.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi called on people to carry on daily social and economic activities such as traveling.
Still, towns such as Higashi Osaka called on residents not to engage in “unnecessary and non-urgent” travel in case of a major quake. Other municipalities opened shelters, called on residents to stock up emergency food and water and to discuss evacuation plans among family members.
The popular seaside town of Shirahama in Wakayama prefecture said its four beaches, outdoor hot springs, parks and other facilities would be closed for the next week. An annual fireworks festival planned for Saturday was canceled.
Aoshima, another popular beach resort in Miyazaki prefecture, which was hardest hit by Thursday’s quake, also was closed.
Rail companies serving the region said their trains will operate at slightly reduced speeds as a precautionary measure.
In a 2013 report, a government disaster prevention team said that if a magnitude 9.1 quake struck near the southern coast, it could generate a tsunami exceeding 10 meters (33 feet) with a death toll of more than 300,000 and economic damage of more than 220 trillion yen ($1.5 trillion) in a worst case scenario.

One man decided to take on Google Maps, 20 years later OpenStreetMap is still going strong
From internet protocols and operating systems, to databases and cloud services, some technology is so omnipresent most people don't even know it exists.

OpenStreetMap is the handiwork of Steve Coast (pictured above), a University College London "dropout" (Coast's own words) who has since gone on to work in various map- and location-related roles at Microsoft, TomTom, Telenav, and -- as of today -- Singaporean ride-hailing firm Grab.

The reporters analyzed video clips, photos and law enforcement documents to supplement key interviews for this article.
Nearly 100 minutes before former President Donald J. Trump took the stage in Butler, Pa., a local countersniper who was part of the broader security detail let his colleagues know his shift was ending.
“Guys I am out. Be safe,” he texted to a group of colleagues at 4:19 p.m. on July 13. He exited the second floor of a warehouse that overlooked the campaign rally site, leaving two other countersnipers behind.
Outside, the officer noticed a young man with long stringy hair sitting on a picnic table near the warehouse. So at 4:26 p.m., he texted his colleagues about the man, who was outside the fenced area of the Butler Fair Show grounds where Mr. Trump was to appear. He said that the person would have seen him come out with his rifle and “knows you guys are up there.”
The countersniper who sent the texts confirmed to The New York Times that the individual he saw was later identified as the gunman.
By 5:10 p.m., the young man was no longer on the picnic table. He was right below the countersnipers, who were upstairs in a warehouse owned by AGR International. One of the countersnipers took pictures of him, according to a law enforcement after-action report, which along with the texts from the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit was provided to The Times by the office of Senator Charles E. Grassley, Republican of Iowa. The text messages were independently verified by The Times.
At 5:38 p.m., the photos were shared in a group chat, and another text went out among the officers, saying they should inform the Secret Service. “Kid learning around building we are in. AGR I believe it is. I did see him with a range finder looking towards stage. FYI. If you wanna notify SS snipers to look out. I lost sight of him.”
By 6:11 p.m., the “kid” would be dead on the roof of a warehouse connected to the one the countersnipers were stationed in, after having been shot by the Secret Service for trying to kill a former president.

picnic table
Taken together, the text messages provide the most detailed picture yet of the hours before the assassination attempt. They reveal that the gunman, later identified as Thomas Crooks, 20, of Bethel Park, Pa., aroused police suspicion more than 90 minutes before the shooting, rather than about 60 minutes, as has been previously discussed in congressional hearings.
The messages also add to the evidence that the would-be assassin was often one step ahead of security forces, and in particular the Secret Service.
Mr. Crooks scoped out the rally site a day before the Secret Service did. He used a drone to survey the site while the Secret Service did not seek permission to use one for the rally. He researched how far Lee Harvey Oswald was from John F. Kennedy when he fatally shot the president in 1963 — the answer is about 265 feet — and managed to climb onto a roof that was about 400 feet from Mr. Trump at its closest point. The Secret Service left that roof unmanned.
And while countersnipers were assigned to surveil the rally, Mr. Crooks was also in a position to watch them.
Even after the episode ended, the police seemed confused about what Mr. Crooks had done and how.
“So, on TV, they’re saying Trump was shot at , and he got hit, but I don’t believe that,” one local police officer said to another 17 minutes after the shooting, in a conversation captured on a body-worn camera.
As the officers in the video walk toward the warehouse on which Mr. Crooks’s lifeless body lay, one can be heard saying, “I’m trying to figure out how this guy got here.”
Investigators are still trying to determine Mr. Crooks’s motivations and his actions in the days before the rally, in part from what they have found on his personal devices. But the texts and footage, combined with interviews by The Times and public testimony by investigators, have filled in some of the answers.
Mr. Crooks already had the AR-15-style semiautomatic rifle he brought to the rally. He purchased it in October from his father, who had acquired it legally in 2013.
He began to receive packages at his house in the Pittsburgh suburbs, including fertilizer pellets and radio devices . He would later use some of this material to build rudimentary bombs, two of which were found in his vehicle after the shooting and another in his home.
Mr. Crooks had started searching online for information on famous people, including the F.B.I. director, Christopher A. Wray, Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, President Biden and Mr. Trump. He also looked up “major depressive disorder.”
On July 3, Mr. Trump’s campaign announced the rally in Butler for 10 days later, and Mr. Crooks narrowed his focus to the former president — and to past assassinations.
On July 6, Mr. Crooks typed in an ominous phrase.
“He did a Google search for ‘How far away was Oswald from Kennedy?’” Mr. Wray told a congressional committee last week.
The next day, Mr. Crooks drove to the farm show grounds, about an hour from his home. He spent 20 minutes there, investigators said. He had already registered to attend the rally.
Secret Service agents would not hold their first walk-through until the following day, July 8, joined by law enforcement officials from several local and state agencies.
It was then that the Secret Service decided to exclude the entire warehouse complex owned by AGR, including Building No. 6, which Mr. Crooks would later use, from its inner security perimeter. This meant that on the day of the rally, Mr. Crooks was able to approach the building without passing through security screening.
There is still confusion about which agency was supposed to oversee the roof. Kimberly A. Cheatle, then the director of the Secret Service, told a House committee on Monday that she did not know whose job that was. She resigned the next day .
After their walk-through, the Secret Service had asked local agencies to provide more help. Text messages show that Beaver County struggled to find enough volunteers to cover the 12-hour shift. A leader says that one of the available snipers could arrive at 8 a.m. but would need to leave by 4 p.m.
“That works,” another leader responded in the texts.
On Thursday, July 11, the Secret Service returned to the site for a final walk-through with its local partners.
The next day, Mr. Crooks made his own final preparations. He went to a shooting range, the Clairton Sportsmen’s Club, around 2:30 p.m., and practiced with his AR-15-style rifle.
On Saturday morning, July 13, the timelines of the security personnel and the would-be assassin converged.
Officers from several local law enforcement agencies were scheduled for a briefing at 9 a.m. at the Brady Paul Lodge in Butler, according to a plan shown in the text messages. The after-action report indicates the Secret Service was not in attendance.
At the same time, Mr. Crooks was at the Home Depot in Bethel Park purchasing a ladder. A bloody receipt, found in the shooter’s pocket after he was killed, showed he bought it around 9:30 a.m.
Then Mr. Crooks drove to the rally site, reaching the show grounds by around 10 a.m. and staying about 70 minutes — even as the local countersnipers were arriving.
When Mr. Crooks left, he drove back to his hometown and bought 50 rounds of ammunition at Allegheny Arms & Gun Works. Then he returned to Butler, arriving at the farm show grounds in his Hyundai Sonata at about 3:35 p.m., according to geolocation information from one of his cellphones. About 15 minutes later, he flew his drone over the site for 11 minutes, including in a path about 200 yards from Mr. Trump’s podium.
He finished using his drone and sat at the picnic table, where the countersniper spotted him.
Mr. Crooks walked to his car, left the drone inside and was soon hanging around the warehouse complex.
Unlike the other visitors, he was not trying to enter the rally site through the security checkpoints, a fact that attracted the attention of the local countersnipers inside the warehouse. One of them took photos of him at 5:14 p.m.
Col. Christopher Paris, the Pennsylvania State Police commissioner, testified in a congressional hearing on Tuesday that officers were busy that day, responding to more than 100 heat-related emergencies. There were also other suspicious people whom security officials were trying to assess at the rally, which is not unusual for such events, Colonel Paris said.
But then, Mr. Crooks did something that alarmed the police. They saw him using the range finder.
A Beaver County countersniper shared two photos of Mr. Crooks with his colleagues at 5:38 p.m., which were then relayed to the Secret Service, through a series of steps in the command center.
One of the two remaining countersnipers “ran out of the building attempting to keep eyes on Crooks until other law enforcement arrived,” according to a statement by Richard Goldinger, the Butler County district attorney, who supervises some of the law enforcement units.
But Mr. Crooks ran off, taking a backpack with him, Mr. Goldinger said. When the officer was unable to find Mr. Crooks, he returned to his post.
Four Butler Township police officers who had been directing traffic joined the manhunt.
At 6 p.m., one officer in the group texts guessed that Mr. Crooks was moving toward the back of the complex of AGR buildings, “away from the event.” Instead, Mr. Crooks clambered onto the low-slung building in the complex closest to the stage.
Mr. Trump took the podium at 6:03 p.m., to a roaring crowd.
Six minutes later, rally attendees began pointing to someone on the roof of the warehouse. Either through luck or preparation, Mr. Crooks had found a place on the roof that let him see Mr. Trump clearly, but also seemed to keep him somewhat hidden from the Secret Service countersnipers.
Though Mr. Crooks did not bring his newly purchased ladder, he managed to climb onto the roof and walk across a complex of interconnected roofs, Mr. Wray testified.
The Butler Township officers had no ladder themselves, so one officer boosted up another, who grabbed the roof and pulled himself up — to find Mr. Crooks pointing a gun at him. With no hands left to pull his own gun, the officer dropped.
At 6:11 p.m., Mr. Crooks let loose his first rounds.
In the end, Mr. Trump was spared not by the vast law-enforcement contingent protecting him, but by chance. He turned his head, and Mr. Crooks’s first bullet whizzed by close enough to graze his ear.
The former president dived to the ground, and Mr. Crooks sent off another round. The second Secret Service sniper team fired back, and killed Mr. Crooks.
The body-camera footage shows officers climbing a ladder to find Mr. Crooks lying dead on the roof: a slight man, wearing black sneakers, a T-shirt and cargo shorts. His backpack and rifle lay nearby. A long trail of blood ran from his body down to the roof’s gutter.
“Looks like, what, at least eight,” one of them says, counting shell casings around him. “One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. At least eight.”

'You lost the community': Lahaina residents look for hope a year after the fires

- The Maui wildfires killed over 100 people and destroyed homes, cultural sites, and businesses alike.

MAUI, Hawaii – For Shannon I’i, the entire month of August stirs difficult emotions. Grief. Mistrust. Pending doom. Uncertainty.
“Lately, it’s not so much the date itself but the coming toward that date,” she told USA TODAY of the Maui wildfire anniversary. “For me, this past month has been a lot more triggering, a lot more emotional.”
To I’i and her family, Lahaina is their home – it has been and will be. She and her family have spent the past year navigating chaos and adjusting to a new normal following the wildfires . After their three-bedroom house burned down, the family were housed in a hotel then moved into a small studio on her great-aunt's property in Lahaina.
I’i said she feels blessed to still live in her hometown, even if it’s in the trauma-laced burn zone. Her home will be rebuilt by Habitat for Humanity, but she said not everyone else is so lucky.
Maui is still grieving. Here's how travelers can help.
Her parents, who are retired, also lost their house in what was the deadliest wildfire in recent U.S. history and will have to move to a different island, Oahu. Now they must pay rent after after making mortgage payments. When they can return to Maui is up in the air for now.
“Everybody’s lifestyle has changed,” she said. “My parents are going through a time where they worked their whole lives for their home, the home burned and where do you go from there?”
I’i and her family are not alone in their feelings. Thursday marks the anniversary of the wildfires that ravaged historic Lahaina Town, which killed over 100 people and destroyed homes, cultural sites, and businesses alike. As the Lahaina community continues to work toward recovery – both emotionally and logistically – many questions remain unanswered.
Struggling financially alongside the emotional burden, nearly half of the fire survivors have said they are “very seriously” or “somewhat seriously” thinking about leaving the island. Research from the Maui Together Wildfire Assessment found that one-third of the family members of survivors have already left.
The anniversary also serves as a reminder of the deep love and sense of community that Lahaina residents have for their town, the former capital of the Hawaiian Kingdom. This is where many find hope at the chance to rebuild their home, refusing to give up on a new, brighter future for Lahaina, even if it will be years down the line.
“I love Lahaina so much,” I’i said. “That’s it for me.”
'A phoenix from the ashes': How the landmark tree is faring a year after Maui wildfire
The biggest loss was community
Baby Beach was once a beloved local spot in Lahaina, a place where “everybody would go” to play in its gentle waters and relax on the sand, according to I’i. Now, I’i thinks of loss when she sees the beach, of the people who had to jump over the rock wall to escape the inferno. “You see that and it’s that heavy feeling,” she said. “I think of things such as pilina , or connectedness, our beaches being full of people, and it’s really hard to move on.”
I’i misses running into her neighbors in the grocery store. “You lost the community, not just losing your home,” she said. “Being away from each other has been the biggest loss.”
Despite how sprawling Maui is – the second-largest island in Hawaii – its community is close-knit.
In the face of a challenging year, the Maui community has shown remarkable resilience, with grassroots organizations like Lahaina Strong, local restaurants, and citizens stepping up to provide disaster relief when they felt government support fell short.
Since the fires, I’i has been heavily involved in community meetings and mental health outreach. In the immediate aftermath, she went from hotel to hotel to check on those who were displaced to let them know of resources to help them cope with the grief. Sometimes they just talked about what they went through to “have that shared experience,” she said. Speaking with another local rather than emergency responders who arrived on the island, people were “way more open.”
Now she is working with the Department of Health to establish the Ke Ola Hou Resiliency Center which will serve as a space for the Lahaina community to get mental and physical health and other social services. It’s a critical resource as 64% of those impacted by the fires said their mental health has worsened, according to a recent assessment of over 1,000 fire survivors by the Hawaii State Rural Health Association.
“Being involved, being able to help other people really helps me,” she said. “I get to see people in my community. It’s familiar, it’s hopeful.”
Surviving the inferno: How the Maui fire reshaped one family's story
‘Just not knowing’
Before the tragedy, life in Maui wasn’t only paradise. The island was already facing challenges such as a high cost of living and a housing crisis. In 2021, Maui had the most expensive median rent in the state , according to the 2023 Hawaii Housing Factbook. Housing affordability has been equally difficult for Maui locals, with the median single-family home costing $1 million.
The devastating fires only exacerbated these concerns for those impacted by the fires, according to the Hawaii State Rural Health Association’s assessment. Sixty-nine percent say they’re now worse off financially, cutting back on groceries and medical insurance. On Friday, Maui County expanded its Homeowner Assistance Fund on Friday to a total of $21 million for owners to receive up to $60,000 for housing-related expenses like mortgage payments.
On Maui, short-term rentals account for 15% of the total housing supply, a number that Maui County Mayor Richard Bissen wants to reduce. In May, he proposed a bill to convert over 7,000 of those into long-term rentals by 2026 – approximately 2,200 are in West Maui.
“Some of the problems as a business operator is we can’t hire help because there’s no places to live,” said Peter Merriman, owner of Merriman’s Kapalua, just north of Lahaina. “Everybody who works there has to commute from other parts of the island.”
Most families are living in limbo due to lengthy insurance processes and awaiting payments from the recent $4 billion settlement agreement from the lawsuit against Hawaiian Electric, which some say was responsible for the fire.
Peter Longhi is also grieving the loss of his family home. “I didn’t lose where we were living but I lost everything from my childhood,” he said. “It’s just gone, it’s really sad.” He’s not quite sure yet if he’ll be able to rebuild his house. “We’re planning to, we’re hoping to.”
Longhi inherited Longhi’s, a namesake Italian restaurant located on Kaanapali Beach in the Marriott's Maui Ocean Club, from his father. Many of his employees lost their homes and had been living in the hotels. “Dealing with that emotionally, it’s been terrible,” he said. “Coming up on a year, it still gets you at random times.”
For Longhi, the hardest part of recovery is the uncertainty. What will become of Front Street, once the most patronized part of Maui? Will there be enough jobs or housing in the rebuilding of Lahaina? How much will it cost to rebuild his home?
“Nobody knows the answer, and that’s what I think is frustrating and saddening to everybody is just not knowing,” he said.
A new Lahaina
One year later, there are rays of hope.
◾ Banana trees are sprouting, offering specks of vibrant green life among the ashes.
◾ Due to careful nurturing, the historic banyan tree is also thriving, regrowing its leaves and tendrils.
◾ Nearly 98% of Lahaina’s residential properties have now been cleared of debris.
Many look toward the past to inform Lahaina’s future – the town was built upon a wetland called Moku’ula and a royal fishpond known as Mokuhinia. It was once so abundant it was called the “Venice of the Pacific.” Breadfruit trees and others were planted around the sacred resource, offering shade and food. Freed from infrastructure and given the space and time to breathe, the groundwater and streams have begun to reflow.
Hawaii Gov. Josh Green and other officials are coordinating with Native Hawaiian-led Lahaina nonprofits like Na Aikane o Maui to restore the cultural site . This regeneration offers renewed strength to Lahaina residents.
“I never thought it would happen in my lifetime,” I’i said. “Instead of having a bunch of tourist drops on Front Street and catering to tourism, I hope there is cultural preservation from the beginning of Moku’ula.”
Rebuilding Lahaina not only offers an opportunity to honor its cultural history but also reshape the town with improved, more resilient infrastructure. As the deadly flames raged, many people were unable to get out because of downed power lines and locked gates, according to a recent report , commissioned by the Hawaii attorney general and published by the Fire Safety Research Institute. Failed pipes meant water couldn’t flow from the fire hydrants.
Unfortunately, rebuilding the town will take years, with some architects estimating seven to eight years . Heartbreakingly, some of the kupuna (elders) may not see their revitalized Lahaina.
Still, construction is already underway for a handful of Lahaina homes and more permits are applied for each day. New houses are slated to be outfitted with roofing and other materials to better withstand high winds and wildfires. It will be a long way to go, but those who call Lahaina home push forward.
“I don't want to just survive here, I want to be able to thrive here,” I’i said.
