'''Murugeshpalya''' is a neighbourhood in [[Bengaluru]], [[India]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Murugeshpalya Map|url=http://www.mapsofindia.com/bangalore/localities/murugeshpalya.html|work=mapsofindia.com|publisher=Maps of India|access-date=8 November 2013}}</ref>

== Location ==
It lies south of [[Old Airport Road]], bounded by Vimanapura (including the Old Airport - [[HAL Airport|Hindustan Aeronautics Limited Airport]]) - on the east and the Old Airport's runway on the south. National Aeronautics Laboratory Road or NAL Road is also called [[Wind Tunnel Road]] and cuts through Murugeshpalya on the western side. Extending west nearly 600 mts from the "mouth" of NAL road is the large "Murugeshpalya Domestic Camp". Further down the road, just before it reaches the runway of the HAL Airport, is one of Bangalore's oldest IT Parks: the "Golf View Campus".

Towards the Old HAL Airport<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nsoj.in/stories/kia-set-to-become-indias-second-busiest-airport|title=KIA set to become India's second busiest airport}}</ref> lies the Kemp Fort Mall, and further down is the Visvesvaraya First Grade college. The key landmark in this area is the [[Shivoham Shiva Temple|Shiva temple]], within the Kemp Fort Mall complex.

== Economy ==
The Golf View Campus along the Wind Tunnel Road was once the home of IT firms such as [[Texas Instruments]], [[Lucent Technologies, Inc.|Lucent Technologies]] and [[Hewlett-Packard]]. Most of these companies moved to bigger tech parks, leaving [[Cognizant]] as the remaining IT company here. The old buildings are now being re-purposed; the campus now hosts [[Ola Cabs]]. The [[Uber]] office and the call center for Omega Healthcare are also located on this road.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/small-biz/startups/uber-launches-new-facility-to-improve-customer-service/articleshow/60426545.cms|title=Uber launches new facility to improve customer service|newspaper=The Economic Times|last1=Menezes|first1=Naveen}}</ref> <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.apnnews.com/omega-healthcare-in-association-with-multiple-sclerosis-society-of-india-holds-bike-rally-to-increase-awareness-on-multiple-sclerosis/|title = Omega Healthcare, in association with Multiple Sclerosis Society of India, holds bike rally to increase awareness on Multiple Sclerosis}}</ref>

==Shiva temple==
[[File:Sivakempfort.jpg|thumb|right|Shiva Statue which is 65 feet tall]]
The [[Shiva]] temple<ref>{{cite web|title=RVM Foundation Shiva Temple|url=http://www.shivmandir.org.in/|work=RVM Foundation|access-date=8 November 2013}}</ref> has a 65 foot tall [[Shiva]] cement statue in addition to a huge [[Ganesh|Lord Ganesha]] statue and a [[Navagraha]] temple inside. Beneath the statue is a pathway where models of Shiva <nowiki/>exist in different forms. These are often replicas of the lingams found in other parts of the country. One of the famous lingams located here is made of ice and is said to be a replica of the one in [[Amarnath Temple|Amarnath]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Shiv Mandir Temple|url=http://www.tripadvisor.in/ShowUserReviews-g297628-d1219275-r128958721-Shiv_Mandir_Temple-Bangalore_Karnataka.html|work=tripadvisor.in|publisher=Tripadvisor|access-date=8 November 2013}}</ref>
