Bangalore is the place where fun is. We have amusement
parks, pool parlours, bowling alleys, video game arcades and
so many adventure clubs that you just might tire of exces s
enjoyment!
The regular forms of entertainment like sitting in a Giant Wheel
or Merry-go-round, eating a jola (corn-on-the-cob) or
even shopping have taken a back seat. Now, with the changing
times, the concept of entertainment has changed. Everything
that is electrifying is classified as fun.
The present generation families want instant thrill and excitement
- time is a very crucial factor; too precious to waste... and
forget about money. The kids too want fun throughout, without
a break. And people nowadays are willing to pay anything for
pure entertainment.
The hub of entertainment is undoubtedly Brigade Road. The busy
street has a bowling alley - G's Lanes, video game arcades -
Virtual Sports, Fun Station and pool parlours - Cyber Q and
Bunty's.
The two video game arcades with imported machines - Fun Station
and Virtual Sports, are equally exciting. The big screens
in Fun Station will give you a thrilling experience. You feel
as though you are really driving in one of these exciting
machines. And there are exclusive games for children aged
below ten. The games in Virtual Sports come alive as you play.
There are bike race games and the much popular air hockey.
You can play these games by inserting coins worth Rs.10/-
 Mega
Bowl needs special mention. It's a world of entertainment
- you have bowling alleys, video games, a snack bar (where
beer is also served), and a pro shop, which sells bowling
equipment such as gloves, shoes, T-shirts and balls. College
students can get a special discount by flashing their ID cards.
G's Lanes is also a bowling centre. The rates are worth the
entertainment you get. "The place is really cool. You can
bowl, eat… and have plenty of fun," says a college student.
Neeladri Amusement and Water Park located on Hosur Road is the
only combination of an amusement park and a water park in the
city. It's the place to ease out your tensions and amuse yourselves
in a fun-filled atmosphere. There is a special offer for a hundred
bucks - you get 9 rides and a free entry. Located on Bannerghatta
Road is Crazy Waters - the salubrious water park. You are bound
to have a rollicking time - sliding down on floats and splashing
in water. These parks provide complete family entertainment.
"We have a nice time here. There are many games and of course
the chaat stalls. It's our kids who enjoy the most," says
Padma, a homemaker.
Snooker lovers are sure to enjoy their time at Cyber Q or Bunty's
Pool Parlour on Brigade Road and also at the famous pool parlour
in Jayanagar - The Cue Club. You can enjoy a nice game of pool
at any of these parlours for less than a hundred bucks for a
table. The Cue Club hosts a tournament every Sunday, thereby
encouraging amateur players to participate in the exciting cue
sport.
Go-Karting enthusiasts in Bangalore can look forward to
new Karting facilities in July. Patel's Inn at
R.T Nagar offers completely professional packages - 2 stroke,
4 stroke and off-track karts of truly international standards.
The lofty price of Go-karting has reduced due to the influx
of more and more indigenous producers of karts.
All in all, Bangalore is the place to freak out with family
and friends.
Come on, get going!
Have fun and enjoy yourself!
