Mysore Palace has a history of over 500 years. However, what I see at Mysore is a modern palace built in 1912. As mentioned earlier, the first palace was built by King Wodeyar in the 14th century.

During the Raja Wodeyar II regime in 1638, the original palace was damaged by lightning. It has been modified and expanded

In 1803, during the reign of Krishnaraja Wodeyar III regime, a new palace was built after dismantling the old palace. During 1897, during Princess Jayalakshmanni 's wedding, the palace was completely destroyed with fire. Since most of its structure is made of wood, it is completely destroyed. You can see the model of this palace displayed in the palace museum at the first lap of the trip.

This is the Mysore Palace you are seeing. It took about 5 years to build and combine the range of architectural styles. This concept is often referred to as the Indian Saracen style. People can see a fun blend of elements of Hinduism, Muslims, Rajput and Gothic architecture.

The palace is basically a three-story building with a central tower of 44 m (145 ft). The pink marble dome decorates the number of towers in a completely symmetrical configuration

When entering the museum, the first charm is the doll house. Antiques made from gold, silver, marble and ivory from all over the world. Some of them are 900 years old.

The middle part of the palace is a huge courtyard open in the sky. Beyond that it is the most wonderful part of Kalyanamantapapa, the palace. The five-story tower of the palace forms a majestic dome in this hall.

The walls of the corridor are decorated with royal themed oil paintings. In the vividness and details of these paintings, a series of rituals and festivals of the past are drawn.
