The Mysore of
legend takes its name from a famous demon called Mahishasur
, a great warrior who ruled as a tyrant until he was killed
by goddess Chamundeshwari . 13 Kms from Mysore is Chamundi
Hill which bring you to the temple of the Chamundeshwari.
About halfway up is a huge granite monolith of Nandi,
Shiva’s divine bull. Next to the hilltop temple is a statue
of the Mahishasura the Demon, brandishing a sword in one
hand and a cobra in the other.
Hotel Lalitha Mahal Palace
On a
low hill, just outside the royal city of Mysore, stand a
shimmering white palace - a splendid Italianate palazzo,
double-columned and domed - set in sparawling terraced and
landscaped gardens.
This is the
Lalitha Mahal, built by the erstwhile Maharaja of Mysore to
host his most important guest, the Viceroy of India.
The Lalitha
Mahal is now one of India's most opulent hotels, a palace
hotel that offers an experience of princely living in a real
