Indoor places to visit in Bangalore for adults

Indoor picks for grown-ups

• National Gallery of Modern Art: Indian modern art in a heritage mansion with a quiet garden.
• Government Museum and Venkatappa Art Gallery: history and painting side by side.
• Visvesvaraya Industrial and Technological Museum: more interesting for adults than its reputation suggests.
• Escape rooms and bowling: good with friends or colleagues.
• Snow City: in the same complex as the aquarium. Check their current fees.
• Aquarium Paradise: a calm walk through India's longest underwater tunnel and a jellyfish room with reflective walls.

Why adults like the aquarium

• It is calm. Dim light, moving water and a seating lounge facing the tank.
• It photographs well. Phone photos and videos are welcome.
• It works after work. Arrive by 6:00 PM for the 6:30 PM diver feeding. On Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays, a free mermaid show runs at 7:40 PM, subject to availability.
• Dinner is close. The building houses what we call India's first ocean restaurant.

Note: Mermaid show timings keep changing. Always call +91 96063 11881 or check with the staff at the ticket counter before you come for the mermaid show.
