To be honest, I was not expecting a lot when I visited the garden, however it was a very pleasant experience. If you are a nature lover, you will get to spend time with large trees, more than 200 years old, cannot explain how good the feeling was.
About the garden, it has four gates, and is spread over an area of 240 square yards. The garden itself is very old, and was first built by Hyder Ali, father of Tipu sultan. If you are a first time visitor, my recommendation would be to take a golf cart ride of the garden. It is easily available when u visit the garden. The ride if for 40 minutes, in which they will take you around the different areas of the garden and explain importance of each area. post the ride, it is much easier to identify, where you want to spend the rest of time. Overall, highly recommended.

1) Not just for botanical students but for people of all ages.
2) Try the floral clock, rose garden and band stand
3) If you are not going as part of the package tour, then you can plan out quite a lot of good places nearby. What I am trying to say, few attractions close by and you can plan them out together including this attraction.
4) Have a bottle of water with you.

A large complex. Cleanliness is ok. Visit is worth it. There are 4 gates to enter the Gardens. Only one gate where parking is available. Lush green and lot of flower and fauna. We did get tired walking in the gardens so did not explore the full Gardens. When we went, it had rained overnight, so at a number of places there were puddles of water. Directions for various gardens is very poor for visitors. When we were about to leave, we observed that the Gardens have battery operated cars for visitors ( do not know of free or paid). Also the driver was acting as a guide. So first, you must take this car for a tour and then can walk around for a while. Enough small stalls for snacks and drinks in the Gardens.

Good place to enjoy nature in the heart of Bengaluru City amidst the hustle bustle of City... Taking golf cart ride there is highly recommended if you don't want to walk much as garden is pretty big

I enjoyed this park, which is very large and has beautiful trees. You can easily spend 2 hours there. I was lucky to see the Flower Show. It you come in August, it is nice to see.

Went back to Lalbagh after ages and it was such a pleasant experience. Of-course the nice monsoon weather in Bangalore made the experience more nice. Adule ticket for Rs 30, children for Rs 10 and a parking ticket of Rs 50 at the gate and you are set. There is a battery vehicle available similar to how we have in zoo's or national parks to take folks around but I and my 8 year old decided to walk and just soak in the nature. Beautiful garden - lots of interesting things to explore. Take a snap of the map at the entrance on your phone and just follow the path to every corner. With so much greenery, never seen before trees, birds chirping, squirrels running helter/skelter and the beautiful lake and lotus pond. It was a well spent 2 to 3 hours here.

beautiful garden located right in the heart of the city. well kept and run and a walkers paradise for sure. It is so nice to see such huge and old trees of different types. Glad it is being preserved and cared for so well. Many other cities can learn a few lessons from this and create similar parks . one can easily spend a few hours enjoying the nature .
