Once a medieval settlement, Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore) rose to prominence under the patronage of Kempe Gowda, who founded the modern city in 1537. Later, it was ruled by Tipu Sultan, known for his resistance against British colonization. His legacy lives in the city’s military history and structures like Tipu Sultan’s Summer Palace.
The British turned Bengaluru into a garrison town and administrative center, introducing education, railways, and architecture that still exists today. Over time, it has transformed into India’s Silicon Valley, attracting tech giants and startups alike.
