Recommendations

Make sure to check out the Mysore Palace, which is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Mysore. If you have time, visit the Brindavan Gardens, which is a beautiful park with fountains and light shows. For a side trip, you can visit the nearby town of Srirangapatna, which has a rich history and is home to the Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple.

Don't forget to try other local delicacies such as Mysore Pak, a sweet made from gram flour and ghee, and filter coffee, which is a staple in South India.
