This serves as a memorial of Field Marshall KM Cariappa. The unique attraction is a huge man-made 27-foot waterfall situated on left side of the park. About 3000 species of indigenous and imported plants and trees can be found in the park. This garden is maintained by various divisions of the Army and every fortnight 6 military bands perform on the bandstand or the elevated lawns. A seven-feet monolithic statue of Cariappa can also be seen here.
    This list is just the beginning. Bangalore has many more parks among various residential areas which provide natural beauty to the city. I am now convinced that Bangalore is rightly the Garden City of India.
