Karnataka Governor Vajubhai Vala has opened his official residence, Raj Bhavan, for public viewing from August 16 to August 31
It was formerly known as “Bangalore Residency”, built by Sir Mark Cubbon, who was the commissioner of Mysuru territory of the British empire between 1840 and 1842
It has to be noted that the 19 bedrooms in the Bhavan were named after famous Indian rivers and mountains
