Majestic metro station, Metro interchange station in central Bangalore, India
Nadaprabhu Kempegowda Station is an underground metro interchange with four levels and separate platforms serving the Purple and Green Lines of the Namma Metro system. The structure accommodates two lines side by side, allowing passengers to transfer between them smoothly.
Construction began in January 2012 and involved extensive blasting through rock to create the underground structure. This project was part of Bangalore's major metro expansion and took several years to complete.
The station is named after Nadaprabhu Kempegowda, the founder of Bangalore, linking modern transport with the city's local roots. This connection appears in how the place honors the past while serving millions daily.
The station has many staircases and escalators to access all four levels, making navigation straightforward for most visitors. Multiple emergency exits are positioned throughout the facility for safety.
The station houses India's first moving freshwater tunnel aquarium, an unexpected feature within this transport hub. The aquarium allows passengers to observe freshwater fish while traveling between platforms.
