 A

established by the Baba is a tranquil place. Special bhajans are organised
on Sundays and Thursdays when Sai Baba is in town. Darshan timings
are at 8:30 am and at 4:30 pm.

area from where part of the IT world is born!
GHATI SUBRAMANYA
(52 kms towards North)
A special feature
of this temple is the two-in-one diety. Pilgrims to this shrine of
Subramanya can see the image of Lakshmi Narasimha reflected on a mirror
behind the main deity.
OMKAR
HILLS
(20 kms towards South-West)
Imagine being able to see the letter AUM from anywhere in Bangalore!
This is what is being achieved at a hillock, set amidst 900 acres
of forest land abounding in flora and fauna, where a 100 ft x 100
ft concrete structure of the mystic letter OM is going to be installed.
Little wonder that it is called Omkar Hills! Providing a splendid
backdrop to this unique structure is an umbrella-shaped Banyan tree
surrounded by eight towers representing Buddhism, Christianity, Islam,
Jainism, Dwaita, Vishishtadwaita, Adwaita and Sikhism.
The place also
gives you a panoramic view of the city as it is the highest point
in Bangalore.
