Horamavu is an area in Bangalore in the Indian state of Karnataka. It is a rapidly growing suburb, which is adjacent to other areas such as Banaswadi, Kalkere and Ramamurthy Nagar in East Bangalore. The Krishnarajapuram railway station, an important railway junction in Bangalore, is 3 km away. It is about 35 km away from the city's main Kempegowda airport.

Horamavu was initially a village comprising plenty of farm land, mangroves and orchards. It had a very rich and diverse ecosystem, consisting of birds including eagles, pigeons and bats, and bees that helped in pollination. Today, the rampant rise of high rise apartments and schools in the neighbourhood has caused severe damage to the greenery of the area, and to the several species of bees and birds which inhabit the area.

The locality is primarily inhabited by IT professionals as many companies are at a accessible distance and almost close to central part of the city. Schools such as St. Vincent Pallotti School, Vibgyor High School, Deva Matha High School, Narayana Techno School, Sri Chaitanya Techno School, Mehras Educational institute, Christian group of institutions, Navneetam college of nursing are present in this area. Horamavu is also home to several eatery joints and restaurants such as Adyar Ananda Bhavan, Udupi Sagar and so on. There are several new apartments and real estate properties springing up in the area including Prestige Gulmohar, Cumins, Kolte Patil Mirabilis and so on. Recently, the new underpass was also inaugurated, easing traffic on the Horamavu Main Road. The Outer Ring Road passes by Horamavu.

Lakes such as the recently revived Horamavu Agara Lake and the Horamavu Lake (which is being revived), are present, but currently face pollution problems.^[1]
