: Mysore is one of the best cities in India. It may not have a booming growth like Bangalore but it has all the charm a city should have and the prime point ie., its calmness and serenity.
If you are a tourist you just can’t miss this beautiful city. The best about this city is its ambience, there is everything you need in the manner which you want them to be. There is nothing like cut throat speed or a sea of population moving from one place to another as if the world is going to fall next moment. I have head visitors from Mumbai, Kolkatta why, even Bangalore telling that where are the people in Mysore, because the roads are so free and calm that you don’t have to apply brakes on any of your vehicle much.
As far as the tourist attractions, the city is well known for its Royal Palace, Jaganmohan palace, which is now a museum also, Lalith Mahal etc., The Zoological Garden, Brindavan Garden behind KRS dam, Chamundi hill all are tourist spots whch are world renowned. The Kukkarahalli and karanji lake are well developed and you can spend entire day just sitting in cool environs of the lake. The city has modern gadgets to boast like fantasy park, go karting, bowling alley etc., Within a radius of 15 to 20 kms we have historical places like Srirangapattana, Somnathpura, Nanjanagudu which have beautiful temples and other tourist spots like bird sanctuary, gumbaz tippus palace etc., .
The city has its name enshrined in everyone’s mind for the famous Dasara festivities, Mysore Silk, Mysore mallige (Jasmine), Mysore badanekai (Brinjal), Mysore chigurele (Betel Leaf) and off course Mysore Pak. The city has old charm in a young mind, you will never get bored here. The Best season to vist in between September and November.
Visit the city once and you will regrett that you were not born here
