Lifestyle and Entertainment in Chikmagalur

The creation of a vibrant and thriving city life in Chikmagalur, has been overwhelmingly aided by the growth and prosperity of the tourism industry of the city and the adjoining areas in the district. Keeping pace with the fast changing face of Chikmagalur, in the later part of the 20th century meant that the city administration not only needed to construct roads, hospitals and other forms of public infrastructure, but also take necessary steps to make human life in it more interesting and enticing to outsiders. Lifestyle and entertainment sectors were thus identified as the ones requiring urgent renovation – an understanding that brought various private players into this seemingly inconspicuous South Indian city.
