Koramangala Must Visit Places
Technically, there isn’t anything to see in Koramangala except laze around and window-shop in the spectacular and hip Forum Mall, which caters to pockets of all sizes. One can spend hours reading inside the Landmark bookstore, visit the exclusive boutiques for ethnic clothes or the store that caters to plus sizes only. For a moment of peace and quiet one can head out into the numerous parks or tiny shrines around the corners. Another good place is the Spar Mall. For a more down-to-earth regional flavour one can visit the BDA Market Complex.
