Mysore Sights

  1. Sri Chamundeswari Temple

    Overlooking Mysore from the 1062m-high summit of Chamundi Hill, the Sri Chamundeswari Temple, dominated by a towering seven-storey, 40m-high gopuram , makes a fine half-day excursion. Pilgrims are supposed to climb the 1000-plus steps to the top; those not needing a karmic boost will find descending easier. A road goes to the top; bus 201 departs from the City bus stand in Mysore for the summit every 40 minutes. A taxi will cost around Rs200 .
