As my mom and sister came to visit me on this weekend, I did a quick trip to Mysore. I've passed through Mysore couple of times but never visited, so this opportunity to visit it.
Started at 6:30 AM from Whitefield, Bangalore. Passed through silkboard, Banerghatta road and reached Kanakapura road. I didn't take NICE road and lucky no traffic on sunday morning. There were no traffic on Kanakapura road either. Really enjoyed my drive.
First stop is Shivanasamudra falls. Reached there at 9AM. Had our breakfast there. We took idlis for breakfast and puliogara for lunch. We walked down, took a coracle ride. Don't miss the coracle ride in the falls. We can bath is falls, but we skipped as we planned to visit palace and Brindavan in Mysore. And climbed up immediately.
At 11:30 started towards mysore road. The distance is approx 80 kms from the falls. We stopped in between to have our lunch. We reached Mysore palace around 2:20PM. We parked our car in a street and enjoyed the palace until 5:30 PM. The palace is really big and worth a visit. It Wodaiyars palace. We can see many East Indian Company (British) symbol inside the palace. We went to museum too.
Then went to Brindavan garden. We were tired. Filled petrol for car somewhere in the city. Crossed Outer Ring road of Mysore and reached garden around 6:30 PM. It was dark already, went to watch music fountain, not sure for us it was not good. The music fountain is below average.
At 8PM we started towards home. We passed through Srirangapatna on Mysore road. Road is bad from Garden till we join Mysore road. It is some 10KMs. From there the ride is smooth and great. There are many speed breakers though. I stopped in some dhaba which took an hour to serve us, meanwhile mom and sister slept in car. Reached home via nice road, silboard, whitefield around 12AM. End of journey..
