Cubbon Park, is one of Bengaluru’s most cherished landmarks. First laid out in 1870 by Major General Richard Sankey, it began as a 100-acre green expanse and has since grown to nearly 300 acres.
In 1927, to mark the Silver Jubilee of Sri Krishnaraja Wodeyar’s rule, the park was renamed Sri Chamarajendra Park. The name honors Sri Chamarajendra Wodeyar (1868–94), the 19th-century ruler under whose reign the park first came into being.
We will be drawing around the Statue of Sri Chamarajendra Wodeyar that stands in quiet tribute.
