History of Bangalore
It was founded in 1537 AD by a Vijaynagar chieftan Kempe Gowda and the legend goes that the King Veera Ballala of Vijaynagar once lost his way while hunting in a forest. Hungry and tired, he came upon a lone hut in the lush forest where he met an old woman. The hungry king when he asked for food she gave him some baked beans. To the King this humble meal tasted better than those served in palace and to commemorate the incident, he called the place 'Benda Kaluooru' (place of baked beans ) and this in time transformed into Bangalore.
