Manthan – Churning of the Mind
Manthan “Workation”
Banjara’s retreat- Open All Year Long
“Workation” is the new concept of a vacation that combines business with leisure. You can now stay and work at Banjara’s “Manthan”, a six-acre stretch of greenery (located in Yelahanka) at very nominal charges for as long as you desire.
A retreat with a difference
Within half an hour’s drive from the city, off a free highway and very easily accessible, is a place where you can get away from the stresses of city life and rejuvenate your mind. It offers ethnic but very comfortable and all-inclusive facilities for you to stay, work, study, discuss and interact. You can go there with your group of colleagues, friends, students or any like-minded persons. Manthan, a six-acre stretch of greenery located in Yelahanka (outskirts of Bangalore) serves as the venue for the many activities of the Academy. Manthan is an ideal weekend getaway and available for hire! Contact our office for more details!
