Travel experience to Bangalore, the Silicone valley of India
I recently made my first visit to Bangalore, the Silicone Valley of India. It is the most vibrant city in India and there are lot to see. A few days are not enough to cover the important places of attractions in this city.
This was my first journey outside Bihar and I was very excited. My train was from Patna Junction Station at 6:30 PM. There was a journey of exactly 52 hours as the train was late by 4 hours. My uncle was there to receive me at the Bangalore railway station.
The first thing I noticed after reaching Bangalore was the climate. The climate of Bangalore city was fantastic in the month of May with some rainfall, which was really strange for any North Indian people.

My uncle came at the railway station with his Hyundai I-20. This was my first experience that someone came to receive me with his car in a station. I was really enjoying every seconds of my life in Bangalore city. After a journey of 35 minutes from the railway station, we reached the apartment. In the house, my aunty and 2-kids were present, awaiting me. As it was quite late at around 11:00 PM, we did not waste our time and went to bed after enjoying my favorite dinner - chicken and rice.
After relaxing for 2 days at my uncle's place, it was the time to have a tour of the Bangalore City. My uncle told me all the details of the places that are mostly visited by everyone who comes to Bangalore for the first time. He also give money and told me the bus routes of all that places.
