PVR Elements Mall

A family day at the mall is just the perfect way to spend a lazy Sunday.
Lumbini garden and Nagawara lake
You can be 16 or 60 but the second you get on a paddle boat the child within you comes right out. These two places in North Bangalore are perfect for instant family picnic plans. Go on a boat ride or the wave pool or make a pact with your friends to try every ride in the Lumbini Garden water park. After that is done head over to Nagawara lake to wind down from the excitement of the park. Don’t miss the musical fountain show, it is guaranteed to leave a lingering feeling of wonder.
Rachenahalli Dasarahalli
