Glass House at Lal Bagh

Lal Bagh or Lal Bagh Botanical Gardens , meaning The Red Garden in English, is a well known botanical garden in southern Bangalore, India. The garden was originally commissioned by Hyder Ali, the ruler of Mysore, and later finished by his son Tipu Sultan. It has a famous glass house which hosts an annual flower show. The foundation stone for the Glass House, modelled on London's Crystal Palace was laid by Prince Albert Victor and was built by John Cameron, the then superintendent of Lalbagh.
