Statue of Queen Victoria may be out of sorts in the free India and for some it may even a sour reminder of our slavery to England. But no one can deny it represent history.When the Statue of British Royalty were relegated to Museum in various Indian Cities, the fact Queens Statue has left untouched and still given a prime place in Cubbon Park clearly shows the Culture Tolerance and proud legacy of people of Karnataka.
Its surrounded by a beautiful little garden. Dont miss to check out Cubbon park which is right next to it.

Most of the colonial statues were removed after Indian independence. Luckily in Bangalore we have these statues still erected. Queen Victoria, King Edward and Sir Mark Cubbons statue are located in the Cubbon Park area. These relics need to be preserved.
