Bengaluru Bengaluru

Fragrant strings of jasmine blossoms hang near bountiful garlands of orange and yellow marigolds that are coiled into soft, abundant rounds. Women in auburn saris sit among woven baskets heaped with ripe bananas. The vivid nuances of south Indian life fill Bengaluru’s bustling marketplace, testifying to a strong devotion to tradition and a powerful relationship with nature. Beyond the rows of okra and coriander, and startling heaps of ground cumin and saffron, splendid parks bloom with frangipani and bougainvillea. Above graceful palms and eucalyptus trees, the stepped apexes of triumphant skyscrapers rise against a blushing sky.
