Bangalore

Bangalore also known as Bengaluru (Kannadaಬೆಂಗಳೂರು, Bengaḷūru) is the capital of the Indian state of Karnataka. Bangalore is nicknamed the Garden City and was once called a pensioner's paradise. Located on the Deccan Plateau in the south-eastern part of Karnataka, Bangalore is India's third most populous city and fifth-most populous urban agglomeration. As of 2009, Bangalore was inducted in the list of global cities and ranked as a "Beta World City" alongside cities such as Dallas, Miami, Boston, Kuwait City, Lima, and Munich in the studies performed by the Globalization and World Cities Study Group and Network in 2008.
Though historical references to the city predate AD 900, a modern written history of continuous settlement exists only from 1537, when Kempe Gowda I, a vassal of the imperial Vijayanagara Empire built a mud-brick fort at the site and established it as a province of the empire. During the British Raj, it became a centre of colonial rule in South India. The establishment of the Bangalore Cantonment brought in large numbers of migrants from other parts of the country.
Today as a large city and growing metropolis, Bangalore is home to many of the most well-recognized colleges and research institutions in India. Numerous public sector heavy industries, software companies, aerospace, telecommunications, and defence organisations are located in the city. Bangalore is known as the Silicon Valley of India because of its position as the nation's leading IT exporter.A demographically diverse city, Bangalore is a major economic and cultural hub and the fastest growing major metropolis in India.

Chennai (Tamil: சென்னை; [ˈtɕennəj]), formerly known as Madras (Tamil: மெட்ராஸ் or மதராஸ்; [mæˈdrəs]) or Madarasapatinam (மதராசப்பட்டினம்), is the capital city of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, located on the Coromandel Coast of the Bay of Bengal. Chennai being the fourth most populous metropolitan area and the fifth most populous city in India, it is also the world's 36th largest metropolitan area.[4] Chennai had a population of 4.34 million in the 2001 census within the area administered by the Corporation of Chennai and an extended Metropolitan Population of 6.5 million.[5] a The urban agglomeration of metropolitan Chennai has an estimated population over 8.2 million people.[6]
Chennai's economy has a broad industrial base in the automobile, real estate, computer, technology, hardware manufacturing, and healthcare industries. The city is India's second largest exporter of software, information technology (IT) and information-technology-enabled services (ITES). A major chunk of India's automobile manufacturing industry is based in and around the city.[7][8] Chennai Zone contributes 39 per cent of the State's GDP.

New York

New York City is an outstanding feature of New York State. The Big Apple, as it’s affectionately called, is one of the world’s most vibrant and powerful as far as arts and culture, banking and finance, and business and industry go. The Statue of Liberty that stands in New York Harbor has stood as a symbol of freedom and a promise of respite for weary travelers and immigrants. Now it is one of the most recognized monuments in the world. The New York Stock Exchange may also be considered a monument unto itself—it’s certainly the most influential financial power. Also internationally enviable is the city’s transportation grid—there is the spider web of subway system, buses, inbound and outbound trains, one of the world’s busiest airports, swarms of taxis, the Staten Island ferries, and even professional bike messengers that skillfully navigate the unsteady tack of urban traffic.
The Hudson River is completely contained within the state and too has become an iconic symbol. The river features a major tributary, the Mohawk River, which feeds into it in upstate New York, in the steep Adirondack Mountains. The mouth of the Hudson is at New York Harbor and the river is more brackish than others of its kind much further up into the river. Historically, major rivers have drawn large settlements and the Hudson is no different. Some of the most well recognized names in New York, cities, sites and universities, huddle close by. Yonkers, Poughkeepsie, and Albany all sit alongside the Hudson.
Niagara Falls is one of the most breathtaking natural sights in North America. The falls are right on the U.S.-Canadian border. The falls on the U.S. side are near the Buffalo area, in the Niagara Falls suburb. This has been a large tourist attraction since the early 1900s.
Regardless of its ultra-urbanized NYC, New York itself is a huge agricultural contributor to the national economy. Wine production is growing rapidly and already the production levels of fine wine are at or near those of California’s grape growing region. The most notable wineries are located out on Long Island in what has legally been dubbed the Long Island Wine Region.
