'''Kalasipalyam''' (also spelled '''Kalasipalya''') is a locality in the central part of [[Bangalore]], [[Karnataka]], India, and one of the older and most congested places in the city. The locality is home to landmarks such as [[Bangalore Fort]] and [[Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace]]. The area is known for its high [[traffic congestion]] and unhygienic conditions of roads.<ref name=chaotic/>

==History==
Kalasipalyam is said to have been created in the latter half of the 18th century during [[Hyder Ali]] and [[Tipu Sultan]]'s rule over Bangalore during which period the city was expanded. The expansion to the east of the fort came to be known as Kalasipalyam; ''kalasi'' means "tent-pitchers and organizers of military camps" and ''palya'' means an area of land ruled by a chieftain.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Nagendra|first1=Harini|title=What Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan had to do with Bangalore's love affair with trees|url=https://scroll.in/article/828228/what-hyder-ali-and-tipu-sultan-had-to-do-with-bangalores-love-affair-with-trees|access-date=22 August 2017|work=scroll.in|date=2 February 2017}}</ref>
