Brindavan Gardens in Bangalore

BG

Situated 143 Km away from the main city of Bengaluru, the Brindavan Gardens is a man-made marvel on its own. The Garden lies alongside the Krishna Raja Sagara Dam, built across the disputed Cauvery River 

The idea of this gorgeous garden was given birth by the Bharat Ratna and legendary engineer Sir Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya who also engineered the dam and who himself was a Diwan of Mysore from 1912 to 1918. 

The construction of the garden was built during the then Diwan of the princely State of Mysore Sir Mirza Ismail. 

The dam and the garden were built during the reign of King Kishna Raja Wadiyar IV in 1932. Currently, the dam and the gardens are maintained by the Senior Assistant Director of Horticulture, KRS. 

The Brindavan Garden was closed for a short span of time to shun trouble related to the Kaveri Water Dispute in 2007.
