Our journey started with much excitement and anticipation. As we approached Mysore, the scenery gradually transformed into a vibrant mix of greenery, historic architecture, and welcoming cityscapes. The weather was pleasant, adding to the charm of our adventure.

Exploring the Majestic Mysore Palace

             

Our first stop, and rightly so, was the iconic Mysore Palace. The grandeur of the palace left us awestruck. Its intricate carvings, lavish interiors, and the stories of royal heritage captured our imagination. We also managed to catch the palace beautifully lit up in the evening —truly a sight to behold!

We then headed to Chamundi Hills, home to the famous Chamundeshwari Temple. The panoramic view of the city from the top was breathtaking. Climbing the steps together as a family made the experience even more fulfilling.

No trip is complete without tasting local cuisine. From Mysore masala dosa to traditional sweets like Mysore Pak, our taste buds were treated to a delicious journey of their own. We also visited the local markets, which were vibrant and full of energy.
