Cubbon Park
Cubbon Park is Bengaluru's central green space, a sprawling 300-acre park laid out in the late 19th century that also houses several of the city's key public buildings, including the High Court, State Central Library, and a couple of small museums, within its grounds. It's the closest thing Bengaluru has to a central park, offering shaded walking paths, old rain trees, and a break from the surrounding traffic.
Early morning and evening are the most pleasant times to visit, when joggers, walkers, and yoga groups fill the paths. It's a low-key stop rather than a headline attraction, best treated as a pleasant break between other Bengaluru sightseeing.
