Subha Naik

A clean and well-maintained place spread across five floors, offering a beautiful and pleasant environment. It is located right in front of the Bangalore High Court, making it easily accessible. At times, they offer free visits, which adds to the overall charm and experience.

By far one of the best museums in the city. The digital rooms are always a visual sensation. Multiple stories of well preserved archives, sculptures and paintings. Their cute little store on the ground floor is a must visit too. There's also a locker to keep personal belongings for free, alongside a nice cafe in the basement. Tuesday's are free entry, so plan accordingly! Parking is a bit of a hassle, but it's worth the experience inside xD

Kids had a nice time , really good displays. ticket ranging from 50 to 150 for various displays. Has a non ac restaurant at terrace, and a Cafe in basement. food was over priced. the terrace restaurant gives a great view of ub city. the staircase between floors was the most flocked space for pics, because of the beautiful shades of colors. Has clean washrooms. Has a single large lift. Has no parking, so you need to park in the lane next to it, near the kingfisher tower, very limited spots. Tuesdays are free. We spent close to 3 hours there. Kaleidoscope display and digital display were great.

バンガロールのカボンパーク東側にある私立美術館。 絵画、映像、写真、商業ポスターなど、南アジアの視覚文化をテーマにした美術館で、2023年2月開館。 フロアごとに異なる展覧会が行われ、一階の受付で見たい展覧会を選んで料金を払うシステムになっています。私がいった際には、「VISIBLE/INVISIBLE」様々なアートに表現された女性に関する展示や「Ticket Tika Chaap」イギリスの植民地時代にインドからの輸出品に貼られた商標マークの展示などが行われていました。展示一箇所につき100ルピーほどだったと思います。 建物もモダンで内装もきれい、展示も洗練されていますので、訪れて損はないかと思います。地下一階にはカフェとロッカー、トイレもあります。

One of the best museums I’ve visited in India. Weirdly I had to pay for all the floors separately and I was recommended 2 hours for the entire place. But with my pace where I wanted to read everything, it took about 3-4 hours and I didn’t even have the capacity for one of the floors. But I loved what I saw and read and experienced.

As an architect, the whole experience was good. It's a must visit place for art fanatics. You are treated every affably and can get a mindful insight of the whole building. No art show or play is fixed around the year, it changes from month to month. The building and it's surrounding is maintained very neat and clean. It's a architectural marvel. The interiors are Human centric and the whole building is aur conditioned. You need to buy tickets for particular events, sometimes there are free. Overall, the overall ambience is really good and soothing.

Had a really nice time at the Museum of Art & Photography in Bangalore. There are so many beautiful artworks, old stamps, and pieces from different eras to explore. The interactive screen was my favorite part...we got to create postcards and send photographs that were instantly displayed inside the museum. It’s a cool mix of history and technology, definitely worth visiting if you’re in the city. try visiting early on a Tuesday since entry is free and you’ll get more time to enjoy the exhibits without the crowds.
