About Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace

This summer residence of Tipu Sultan was built in the year 1791. The ceilings and walls of the palace have a floral touch with Islamic carvings and decorations. 

The uniqueness of this two storey building is that it is entirely made of teak wood with wooden pillars supporting the foundation of the palace. It is said that Sultan used the eastern and western balconies to conduct the mass and state affairs. 

The intricately carved wooden balcony and the majestic staircases are great examples of architectural marveling and the size of the palace is not magnanimous yet it gives a rustic touch to the state of Karnataka. It is one of the Bangalore tourist places which is included in almost all the itineraries.

The richness of this three-hour Tipu Sultan walking trip delighted us as history nerds. From the exact start at KR Market to the amazing insight at Bangalore Fort and Tipu's Summer Palace, Thrillophilia nailed every element. Particularly on Tipu's innovative employment of rocket weaponry, our guide was informed and passionate. It was even more unforgettable because of the local goodies stopped along the road. Essential for those interested in history visiting Bangalore!

Walking this tour alone, I had a great time. The Thrillophilia guide made Tipu Sultan's past very interesting. Investigating the anarchy of KR Market and then moving into the calm castle and armoury felt as though one was crossing time. The provided refreshments added a great touch to the trip. For single visitors, safe, perceptive, and fun.

On this walking trip, exploring Bangalore's past with family was rewarding. From busy KR Market to Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace, every stop was intriguing. The children delighted in the concealed armoury, and the snacks were a nice addition!
