Welcome to a tony, quaint piece of Bangalore's geography, with a
unique history, as well.
Benson Town, originally a part of the expansive Bangalore Palace
estate and later an essential part of the British Cantonment, is
quite literally an extension of the palace grounds.
It is much like a comfortable hammock, strung between Fraser Town
and Jayamahal Extension, with Millers Road and the arterial
Nandidurga Road ensconcing it on the sides. Over the last few
decades Benson Town has grown to become a comfortable,
highly-coveted, residential area of choice; a great area to come
home to.
