Bangalore Travel Guide
India
Bangalore, officially Bengaluru, is a major inland city in southern India with a population of 13,607,800. It is well away from the coast, so the city itself does not have notable beaches within 40 kilometres.
Most international and domestic visitors arrive through Kempegowda International Airport (BLR), the airport serving Bangalore. Coastal day trips are not part of the immediate city experience, with no named beaches of note within 40 kilometres.
