Yes, they give out part of Bangalore Palace for weddings & events. However, price for renting might be little high.

yes

I don't remember seeing one but the reception is very helpful and would definitely help.

I went as a tourist from Sri Lanka. Why don't you phone them directly so that you can have the official position?

From what i understand their is a long on going dispute over the grounds the palace stands in. As far as this concerning visiting off the palace i would have thought it would not have any implication but as a general rule i would ask this question to the tourist board off Benglore or India for a more clarification. Hope this helps

its Rs.250 for Indians. its more beautiful from out side then inside, you can take a look inside in one hour max, if you are photolover you will take one hour outside... you can visit 24X7 throughout the year but if you are planning south india tour try to visit post monsoon..... greenery will catch your eye waterfalls around is place to visit more...

Yes u can cover u need to start by 8am

Bannerghata National Park, Tipu's Palace & Fort, Planetarium, Bangalore Palace, Bull Temple, M.G. Road & Brigade Road, Cubbons Park, Lal Bag are something one must see.

Photography charges are pretty high and not justified... For a digital camera its 675 rs..!! I strongly recommend not to opt for that offer. There is a mobile phone photography option, take that. The kind of stuff what's there inside that's more than enough. I am a photo enthusiast and had my DSLR and kept it in my bag.. :)

Yes there is plenty of parking available.
