Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: : The paper delves into the dynamic interplay of tradition and innovation in Bengaluru. Through ethnographic research and urban analysis, we explore how the city’s streets mirror its rich cultural heritage and technological progress. From Avenue Road's bustling markets to Malleswaram's serene lanes, Bengaluru's locations reveal a harmonious blend of customs and advancements. These streets, hosting ancient temples beside skyscrapers and traditional eateries alongside fusion cuisine, are vibrant stages of coexisting narratives. Furthermore, areas like Koramangala and Basavanagudi showcase the city’s entrepreneurial spirit and artisanal preservation. Our findings highlight Bengaluru’s streets as catalysts of creativity and innovation, illustrating that tradition and modernity are complementary forces shaping the urban landscape. This research offers insights into Bengaluru’s evolving identity, presenting it as a nexus of cultural heritage and technological dynamism.
