BRICK BY BRICK Builders, developers, realtors, architects...

Bengaluru is a metaphor of an India that has arrived on the global scene. And this begins with worldclass self-sustaining ‘mixed use’ townships. Not to mention, smart digital homes that let you control your household appliances, lights and even the garage door from the comfort of your office. All you need to do is press a button or swipe a card. That’s making the most of smart technology where Wi-Fi enabled houses can automatically take care of all your household needs like dusting, cooking, laundry, bathroom, security and entertainment. You can not only watch what’s happening at home through Wi-Fi enabled webcams but also control the temperature of your fridge and microwave. This is your very own Utopia. Make the most of it.

Amusement parks, art galleries, auditoria, sports orgs...

The city entertains you like no other. From Go Karting tracks to Paintball; horse racing to death-defying bungee jumping, roller-coaster rides and white water rafting, the city has much to offer.

And that includes bird watching clubs and outfits well-versed in adventure sports like para gliding, hang gliding and microlight flying. Not to mention, 4D theatres that get you closer to the sights, sounds and smells of a haunted house, moon landing and an alien planet, among other things. Kill time, your way.
