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.

Can debris be beautiful? Yes. Architecture and archeological lovers, this place is a feast for you. Watch the precision in each and every minute state. Worth spending half a day here. If you come from Bangalore, visit this and proceed to Mysore. Please have your food and visit the place. There’s no good restaurants here.

The Shaktipeeth Chamundeshwari temple as well as the granite Nandi are located on the hill. The road to the temple is well maintained. You get good views of the Mysore city from the top.
