Windsor Castle in Bangalore ?

Inspired by the Windsor Castle, this palace was built in the Tudor style by a Wodeyar King in 1857. The Bangalore (Bengaluru) Palace in the heart of the city is a unique edifice.

A built-up area of around 45,000 sq. ft., this 110 year old monument is a popular tourist attraction. It is surrounded by a garden all around, almost giving it a sylvan and fairytale setting. 

The survivors of the Wodeyar family still occupy part of the palace while the rest of the property is administered by the State Government.

This palace has been and still is a favorite spot for movie makers from around India.

Bangalore Palace is located inside Palace Grounds. Palace Grounds is used for hosting major events, festivals, exhibitions and rock shows in Bengaluru.

Inside Palace Grounds you can find a popular amusement park called 'Fun World'. Apart from the regular joy rides, Fun World also has a water park and a bowling alley.
