Things to do in Mysuru (Mysore), Karnataka: The Best Shopping

June 19, 2021 Roger Rusk

The kings of the Wodeyar dynasty set the bar high for the southern cultural capital of Mysore. Ornate palaces and the Gothic St. Philomena's Church with its 175-foot spires pack a visual punch; local institutions keep Carnatic classical music and dance in the public eye. A prominent 11th-century temple sits atop 1,000 steps on the city's outskirts. Dress to the nines and party like a rock star in celebration of Mysore heritage during the lively Dussehra festival, held for 10 days in October/November.

best place to visit in mysore. wheater you are looking for some beautiful things to buy, need any help or just a place to sit, drink chai, chat about India and watch the daily life in the devaraja market. this place has become like my living room and safe space in mysore during the time I spend there. Azam and Adil are such warm people and I had a lot of good conversations. definitely the most important place to go to while you are in the city. Just go there, drink a chai and learn about all the different uses of the essential oils (so interesting!)

Ramsingh's Museum of Mysuru Paintings

Mysuru style of painting is unique to the old Mysuru kingdom; it probably originated in the 18th century. On the occasion of its Silver Jubilee, Ramsons Kala Pratishtana has established a museum, in the name of its founder, to house the Trust's sizeable collection of Mysuru style paintings. This museum is a tribute to the Wadiyars and the bygone artists who created them.

This one gem of a place for art, culture and history enthusiasts! Housed in a 3 floor home very close to Mysuru zoo- every inch of wall here is filled with Mysuru style paintings. If you're lucky you'll have RG Singh and Dharmendra to help you look around and they do a fantastic job of taking you back into history with the stories behind the paintings, the artist's perspective and some unique and interesting facts associated with it. A must visit for people across different ages in Mysuru. Definitely in the top things to do in Mysuru for tourists.

This place is great for handicrafts and Dasara dolls (or just for your own collection). Prices are a bit high at times but there is no shortage of variety.
