This temple is a must see for all who visit Mysore! The architecture and carvings are well maintained. Make sure to have a local tour guide who is able to speak upon the details of the carvings along the outer walls & within the sanctum; because those details help to put this temple into its historical context as well as provide a greater understanding & appreciation for key figures in the Hindu faith.

Especially the carved pillars inside the temple was amazing and how in 12th century they were able to pull this magnificent feat. If you are Rajini Fan this place is must watch, remember Subrammanya Swami pillar in the movie Padayappa starting Super star. yup the shooting was done here. If you are looking for a good Brahman food for lunch there was a Brahman mess within 500 m radius. Check it out. if you want a peaceful & calm atmosphere do visit Kalyani. And the view after you climb 350 steps was great to.. and lots more sightseeing.

The Avadhoota datta peetham is a beautiful ashram complex of Sri Ganapthi Sachchidananda swamy. The complex is huge and has 5 major attractions - Shukavana which is a bird aviary, beautiful Bonsai Garden which is in the Guiness book of world records for its collection of bonsai plants from all over the world, Karyasiddhi Anjaneya temple with huge idol of Lord Hanuman, Sri Datta Venkateshwata Swamy Temple and a Museum. The ashram is very clean and well maintained. Its open for public from 9.30am to 12.30 pm and 3.30pm to 5.30pm. There is a small entry fee for the bonsai gardens, rest all attractions are free. We spent almost 3 hours at the place and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Must visit destination in Mysore.

This is a lovely Tibetan Monastery close to Mysuru or Coorg in Bylakuppe. There are monks praying in here so be prepared to observe in silence without disturbing them. There are lovely paintings on the walls and ceilings besides the huge statues of the Buddha and it's different avatars that are worth seeing here. The Tibetan refugees have been given this place to settle down by the Indian government ever since they fled their home country. It is a very peaceful atmosphere even with all the beating of drums and playing of traditional horns by the monks chanting their devotional hymns. A must visit place for sure if you are in the vicinity.
