Bangalore, known as the beautiful "Garden city" has now metamorphosed as the "Silicon Valley" of India, where opportunities for a satisfying student life abound.
Bangalore's colourful character, it's cosmopolitan culture, the green surroundings, the perennially cool weather and the tranquility of the campus surroundings makes it a conducive environment to live and study - it is not surprising that many students choose Bangalore as a place for study.
At a height of 3,250 feet above sea level, it boasts a salubrious climate with innumerable parks, gardens, lakes and tree-lined avenues giving it the sobriquet "Garden city". Bangalore has a moderate climate throughout the year due to its elevation (1000m). It boasts of delightful weather all year round, registering a mean temperature of 27.1 C (80.8 F) in the warmest month of April and 20.48 C (68.8F) in the coldest month of January.
The nature loving citizens have planted many trees along the roads which has enabled the city to maintain its green looks despite its rapid expansion. Bangalore is therefore aptly called the "Garden City."
Amongst the leading research institutions Bangalore is home to, are the world-renowned Indian Institute of Science (IISc), the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS), the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), the Indian Institute of Astrophysics and Aeronautical Development and the Raman Institute of Physics.
