Last Saturday I was at Cubbon Park, attending the first of its kind festival - Festival of trees of Bengaluru - NERALU.
The event was entirely crowd-funded and various enthusiasts from all over the city had contributed for the success of the event.
More about this initiative can be found at: http://neralu.in/
There were talks by eminent people about various aspects of trees of the city and the ecosystem around it. There were also activities for kids, 'Hug-a-Tree' campaign, an exhibition of photographs of trees by various photographers, various cultural events and many more.
Here is a small collection of images that I made during the time I was there on the first day.

There were many such beautiful hanging posters that were hand made with utmost artistry.
The informative display boards were truly eye-catching!
There was one or the other activity for everyone irrespective of the age!
"Hug-a-Tree"

Hats-off to the people behind making this thought come true!
