Lonely Planet review for Tipu Sultan’s Palace

In the heart of the vibrant Krishnarajendra City Market stands the elegant palace of Tipu Sultan, notable for its teak pillars and ornamental frescoes. Though not as beautiful (or well-maintained) as Tipu’s summer palace in Srirangapatnam, it’s an interesting monument, and definitely worth an outing when combined with other nearby sights such as the Krishnarajendra (City) Market, the massive Jama Masjid, the remains of Kempegowda’s fort and the ornate Venkataraman Temple.

    not worth the almost Rs400 taxi it took to get there.

    melschambers does not recommend this,

    Ok all, This place was ok. I would only ever go back if I happened to be in the area. It took almost 45 min to get there from where I am staying and the taxi driver had noooo idea where it was. He said that he had lived here for 9 years and had never even heard of this place. Once we finally arrive(having to stop 7 times for direction) it is Rs100 to get in. It took me and my friend with reading every sign posted and looking around 10 mins to see everything. I mean it was ok, but I would never again make a special trip there. If you are in the area then feel free to go, but don't expect greatness like the Bangalore Palace or the Mysore Palace. I hope that this is helpful to future visitors.
