Pyramid Valley happens to be an incredibly stunning sight at an approximate distance of about 30 kilometers from the center of Bangalore City. Amidst rocky hills and lush valleys, this world-famous structure is nestled beautifully.
The slate gray Buddha Pyramid, built for yoga and meditation, features impressive dimensions. The base area of the structure is 160 x 160 feet, while 102 feet is its height. The pyramid can easily accommodate around 5,000 visitors at one time owing to its brilliant dimensions. This Buddha Pyramid happens to be the largest, even though there are many meditation pyramids all over the world.
The base portion of the pyramid is made of cement, while its body is made of steel. A total of 40,000 cement tiles have been mounted on the steel frame, creating a beautiful mural that depicts the four fundamental elements: air, water, fire, and earth.
Throughout the year, Pyramid Valley looks incredibly lovely and can be visited at any time. During the winter months of October to February, visitors often enjoy visiting the place as the weather remains extremely good during this period. Do not forget to bring ample drinking water, a pair of sunglasses, sunscreen lotion, and a decent lip balm if you are visiting the place during the afternoon.
During the rainy season (June to September), it is advisable for travelers to avoid visiting the place because it receives heavy rainfall during this period.
Approximately 80 kilometers from Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru, the Pyramid Valley is situated. You can quickly take a local taxi once you arrive at the airport and enter the valley in no more than 2 hours and 35 minutes. The taxi ride to the valley from the airport will cost you about INR 1800. To travel to the place at a cheaper price, tourists can also take a local bus from the airport to the valley.
