Banappa Park

Banappa Park is a historic public park in Chickpet, located in the heart of old Bangalore's commercial district. The park is historically significant for its association with the Indian independence movement — it served as a gathering ground for freedom fighters and political rallies during the colonial era. Today, the park provides a green respite amidst the bustling Chickpet market area, surrounded by wholesale shops and the energy of one of Bangalore's oldest commercial hubs. The park's proximity to the Chickpet Metro station makes it easily accessible, and it remains a popular resting spot for market visitors and nearby office workers.
