Murals in Bangalore, India
The streets of Bangalore in India are covered with colourful murals. In 2009, Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) - the Greater Bangalore Municipal Body - embarked on the idea of painting the city walls with colourful motifs and designs
Scenes from mythology, animals, monuments and sporting heroes are just a few of the themes of the huge paintings on the city's walls
 |
BBMP came up with the idea of the murals to beautify the city and to stop people defacing properties with graffiti or posters
 |
The scheme also provides employment for local artists - more than 100 painters from Bangalore are involved in the scheme
 |
Authorities say they plan to extend the scheme to cover virtually every city wall
