Bangalore, also known as Bengaluru, has a deep and layered visual history. Old Bangalore photographs capture a city that existed before glass buildings and flyovers—showing tree-lined roads, heritage architecture, markets, and everyday life from an earlier era.
Over the years, I have collected and digitally restored old photographs of Bangalore, focusing on images that document the city’s people, streets, and neighbourhoods. These vintage Bengaluru photographs are carefully preserved to retain their original character while improving clarity and longevity.
A curated selection from this collection is currently on public display at Koshy’s and Parade Café on St. Mark’s Road, Bangalore—two of the city’s most iconic heritage cafés visited by locals and travellers alike.
Koshy’s Restaurant – Address:
39, St. Mark’s Road,
Near Brigade Road & MG Road,
Bengaluru, Karnataka 560001
Visitors can view historic Bangalore images while dining, making it one of the few places in the city where old Bengaluru photographs can be experienced in a public space.
For collectors, designers, architects, and Bangalore history enthusiasts, select restored prints of old Bangalore photographs are available for purchase. These works are ideal for homes, offices, cafés, and hospitality spaces looking to celebrate the city’s heritage.
If you are searching for vintage Bangalore photos, old Bengaluru images, or heritage photography in Bangalore, this collection offers a direct connection to the city’s past.
