The Bangalore Palace is the palace I have seen fully with furniture. I personally walk a lot to reach this palace, because most of the Bangalore residence doesn’t know about the exact place of this palace.
The Bangalore Palace is near to the Bangalore City; this is where a bit distance from the City Market and Majestic Bus stand.
After I went to Tipu sultan Palace; I try to visit to Bangalore Palace, but most of the residence there knew only Tipu sultan palace, but finally I approach a person who is from Bangalore city, who knew about the Bangalore Palace.
The Way to go Bangalore Palace,
From the Market Bus stand,
From the Market Bus stand, I took the Bus No 150 and reaches to the Sivaji Nagar Bus stand; from there I took another bus of Bus No 287 and get down Vasanth Nagar. From the Vasanth Nagar the Bangalore Palace is a walking distance.
From the Majestic Railway station,
There is some rain service from Majestic to Bangalore City, from the Bangalore City it’s a walking distance.

The Palace is open to Public who can visit after paying a fee of Rs.175 for locals and Rs.375 for foreign nationals.
To using camera need to pay further Rs.500 for it. And they used to give a walkman which will explain about the palace and the history of the palace. The walkman is free of charge for locals and foreign nationals, who brought tickets.
My personal experience
As I like to the palaces, I love to see a wonderful palace in the cost of Rs.175 per person. But it’s expensive for the locals to pay and see the palace at this cost.
But it added value may trips to know about Bangalore Palace and their history.
My inner Mind
When left from the palace I thought no Kings in the world is a richest man, who work hard and earn hard, is the richest man in the world.
Even they have a palace or the income and reputations; they may be still in “0” in their personal life.
