Take a tour of Karnataka Assembly House in Bangalore, India - part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

The Vidhana Soudha, in Bangalore, India, is the center of legislature for the state of Karnataka.

Also known by the name Karnataka Assembly House, it is a magnificently beautiful structure.

The regal pillars and stately domes of granite and porphyry are designed in what is referred to as the neo-Dravidian style.

Mounted high above the door to the assembly house, just under the national flag of India, is the Karnataka seal.

Crowning the central dome of the structure is a statue of the four-headed lion, the national emblem of India.

The Karantaka Assembly House was completed in 1956, and is the largest and most grandiose legislative building in all of India.
