Murals In Bangalore, India









Murals in Bangalore, India

The streets of Bangalore in India are covered with colourful murals. In 2009, Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) - the Greater Bangalore Municipal Body - embarked on the idea of painting the city walls with colourful motifs and designs



Scenes from mythology, animals, monuments and sporting heroes are just a few of the themes of the huge paintings on the city's walls
BBMP came up with the idea of the murals to beautify the city and to stop people defacing properties with graffiti or posters
The scheme also provides employment for local artists - more than 100 painters from Bangalore are involved in the scheme
Authorities say they plan to extend the scheme to cover virtually every city wall
