Srirangapatna and Mysore beckon



(First published on December 29, 2010 here at The Jaunty Albatross.)

Come December and I headed to Srirangapatna and Mysore with my aunt. A hot day packed with too much to see wasn’t among the nicest travel experiences during the peak holiday season. Nevertheless, it was an experience in itself.

A few pictures from the visit:

India is a religious land. Ever since the dawn of civilization, India has been the birthplace of many religions. Being so, the country boasts of a lot of pilgrim destinations within its precincts. Rich in mythology, it has a number of temples, mosques, monasteries, churches and gurdwaras, which attract lakhs of devotees every year.
