Cariappa Memorial Park
Cariappa Memorial Park is dedicated to Field Marshal K.M. Cariappa, India's first Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army. Located on Cubbon Road near the Shivaji Nagar area, the park features a military-themed design with a statue of Field Marshal Cariappa, a decorative bandstand that hosts occasional cultural programs, and themed children's play areas. The park is well-maintained with manicured lawns, flowering plants, and shaded pathways. It serves as both a recreational space and a tribute to India's military heritage. The proximity to Cubbon Park makes it part of a larger green corridor in central Bangalore, and visitors often combine a walk through both parks.
