St. Marks Cathedral, Bangalore Overview

St. Marks Cathedral was founded in 1808 and was completed in 1812. Bishop of Calcutta consecrated this Cathedral in 1816. This Cathedral is a beautiful colonial structure having a graceful dome over a semicircular chancel that transports the visitor almost immediately into tranquility. Roman archers along the walls are the features of the Cathedral.

It has one of the best-maintained external bells and is also amongst the youngest. This cathedral was modeled along the lines of the 17th -century St Pauls Cathedral. The entrance has elaborate woodwork and ornate carvings coupled with majestically done ceilings and domes. The monument was enlarged in 1901 and rebuilt in 1927. The new structure is known for its stained glass work.

The cathedral is open for all people irrespective of religion or faith. The large grounds of the cathedral with numbers a trees offers a peaceful refugee from the maddening traffic of MG Road. The best time to visit the cathedral is when the choir is practicing or a wedding ceremony is taking place

    One fine day a friend of mine calls me from Mumbai and says that he would like to go to visit Lord Balaji at Tirupati. We planned to make it on the weekend and knowing that it would be crowded and difficult to plan things in this short time, we decided to drive down to Tirupati and see what ever is possible. While I was checking for the route map from Bangalore to Tirupati, I came across a small add that stated. "hassle free dharshan support". I then contacted Mr Jayesh, whose number was provided on the net. On contacting and speaking to them, it was first a thought whether or not we where doing the right thing of seeking a package offer for this trip. We took the name of lord balaji and went ahead in appointing them to provide us a one night stay on twin sharing with speedy dharshan on the following day with trips across to Padmavati and other temples. We where originally scheduled to reach on a Friday evening at 8 PM, but then we could not start early from Bangalore and so where on the road very late. We reached at about 1 AM in Tirupati and this is where our relationship starts. Both Jayesh and his counter., Mr Harish in Tirupati called us all through the night every one hour to check if we where fine and safe. This is something that i had never experienced from any other tour operators. Upon reaching they offered our stay that was in a very good 4 Star Hotel (Fortune Hotel). Promptly we had Harish reach us at 3 Am in the morning, put us into a car that was very well maintained and off we went to top hill. Upon reaching top Hill we had our tickets given to us and the best part was that Harish had taken us carefully through the queue and accompanied us all through the dharshan queue and ensured that he explained every single part of the temple place. He also arranged the prasadham for us and should confess that this is the best dharshan I have ever had over the last few years. Lastly, it might sound very strange in the way they operate but should tell that this is one such travel operators that the most reliable and the best. I have recommended many of my friends and a few of them also have engaged them and are very very happy I wish Harish, Jayesh and the complete Rudra Holidays team that this is a wonderful concept that you guys have started and the type of service that you offer is something that touches us to the heart. I sincerely wish you all the very best in the future and stand committed that for all my trips you shall be my guide. For all that you are doing LORD BALAJI will be with you at all the times. God Bless you all. Good Luck Guys ...more
