Bannerghatta park - Good, if combined with some other place

Bannerghatta park is situated about 20 kms from bangalore city. Main attraction is a wildlife safari where you can sight animals while travelling in caged vans of forest department. It's a park where, tigers and lions are caged but kept in vast open area, giving you a feel that you are seeing them in open. At the end of safari you get nice open sitout area where you can chitchat. A park is also present for children to play. It also has a butterly park with museum that seems to have been opened quite recently. Commutation to the park is very simple even in public transport. We took a bus from bannerghatta junction and it takes only about 20 minutes to reach the park. If you have a private vehicle the entire trip could be completed within 3 hours. But, private vehicles are not allowed inside the safari trip. The main thing you have to look out is if its a government holiday, as it was in our case (Oct2), then be prepared for some waiting for the safari as there will be lot of families coming to this place.

I went with my friends and had a good outing on a saturday evening. My advice would be that its a sure go if you are going with one's family and children. If you are going with friends then its better to combine this place with a lunch or some other place as there is nothing much other than the safari.
