Mysuru and Nandi Hills are the two most-preferred getaway destinations for residents of Bengaluru, according to Uber’s annual ‘Riding with Intercity’ report released on February 13. Additionally, the Bengaluru-Kolar route has secured a position among the top three inter-city routes in India.
Indians made the most of their weekends by taking to travel. Most inter-city trips were booked on Saturdays, followed by Sundays and Fridays, signalling a clear trend highlighting weekend outstation travel.
The year 2023 saw the highest ever inter-city trips booked on the Uber platform. According to the Uber report: “The rapid pace of development of the national and State highway network in India over the past few years has significantly reduced travel times, while also making road journeys more comfortable. These factors have resulted in a trend where more people have been opting to cover longer distances by road.”
While residents of Mumbai loved visiting Pune and Nashik, those in Delhi frequented the historical architecture hotspots of Agra and Jaipur. Those from Bengaluru chose to visit Mysuru and Nandi Hills on weekends.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
