Amazingly Fun Things
You Can Do
At Cubbon Park, Bangalore,
Without Spending A Dime

▪
▪
As Bengaluru is known as the IT hub of India. Most of the population in
Bangalore are full of stress and their residential places would not be enough to
help them deal with these.
When the pressure in our day-to-day job and stresses in our daily routine wear
us out, the only thing that we look forward to is an escape from all of this to
recharge ourselves during the weekends.

Bustling with life and energy on any given weekend, this almost forgotten
and nearly hacked apart treasure trove of good old Bangalore is being found
again and providing refuge to us city folk. Acres of green grass and trees in
the heart of the city is like a lifeline for scores of weary youngsters and family
to spend a relaxing and refreshing weekend doing things you don’t have the
space to do anywhere else in Bangalore!

POOCHES DAY OUT
▪
This super pet-friendly park gives you a chance to let your pets run wild and
free without any bounds or pesky leashes! Spend a gorgeous morning running
around and playing games with your doggy while they get their much-needed
exercise.
▪ You can even fix yourself a play date with the many other friendly doggies
and owners there, too.
▪
There are even designated and confined sections that have been taken over by
pet lovers where you can safely let your pets roam free to mingle with the
masses and maybe even pick up a partner!

SLACKLINING

If you have not tried this yet, you’re really missing out!
Slacklining is basically walking across a tight and flat line or a type of flat
nylon rope.
There’s a super cool bunch of folks at various points in the park that have
been doing the balancing act for years and rocking it with acrobatics, too!
They’re always happy to give you a go, as long as you don’t hog the line for
too long!
Don’t be fooled by how easy they make it look, it takes work and multiple
attempts but it is always worth the laughs.

YOGA AND ACRO YOGA
▪
▪
▪
The park has many different groups doing all sorts of yoga in different
locations!
There’s nothing as exhilarating as doing yoga outdoors with the sounds of
birds and laughter surrounding you.
If you’re in the mood for something more energetic and challenging, you can
use your yoga skills combined with some acrobatics and join the impromptu
acro yoga sessions for some extra fun.

BIRD WATCHING
▪
▪
Yes, the ones with wings! Hard to imagine that you can spot some rare birds
here but the park is a haven for bird-watchers to get some good pictures at
close proximity.
The little ponds draw different species of water birds like the brilliant
kingfisher and herons; otherwise, common sightings would include kites,
magpies, bulbuls, robins, bee-eaters and even owls.

CAPOEIRA
▪
▪
Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that combines various elements of dance,
acrobatics, fight and music.
They focus on the basics of the art like learning the “ginga,” or stance,
building upper body strength for some of the movements, learning to play the
pandero (tambourine), and singing Capoeira songs called ladinhas.
